Isn't fast-firing easier in a well-built weapon like a 19, Gunner?
Every time I hear a doubletap from a Glock, it sounds like a full-auto
startin' up, with no more than 1/4 of a second elapsed for both shots.
My ears twitch.

Shrug...last combat match I shot in, I was shooting 6 into the targets
in .73 seconds, and that was after the stroke. 1911 Series 70 with 220gr
SWC at 1000fps

I did the same course with a S&W 586 (357 Mag,)and did the targets in
..59 (but I fired the second target round after the first..which had been
the first Id fired in about a year after the stroke.

3 targets, shoulder to shoulder, 7 yrs

My best rate of fire was down in the .4s, before the stroke a year
before. Im back down to the low .5 seconds, but doubt Ill ever get down
to the .4s..Im getting old and slow. Shrug.

Any good quality arm, properly fitted to the shooter, and
practice..practice..practice is all thats required to shoot fast.

The kid simply sprayed and prayed
