From Larry Correia, talking about bullet-stopping statistics and such:
“I don’t know about you guys, but anybody worth shooting is worth shooting five to seven times. I’m not going to shoot the guy once, and then wait around to see what percentile he falls into. My gun is going to sound like a friggin’ jackhammer until he decides to leave me the hell alone.”
Not much to argue with there, although my parsimonious nature (when it comes to ammo usage) might dictate “double-tap—pause—double-tap” instead of the “jackhammer” doctrine.
However, if the goblin looks like “Death Train” (as described by Correia), my M1911 will sound more like a M1919, you betcha.
