    Greased Lightning, no doubt about it. I read a book by one of those speed shooters. He said that they learn to lean into the gun just enough to offset the recoil, and each shot is aimed and ready for the trigger finger. If you mess with them and slip a empty cartridge in their revolver, they'll almost fall on their face since there is no recoil as expected.

    I have seen guys that could unload a Smith faster than I could count, (insert your own "dumb" joke here) but there's no way they could put all six on target. How many rounds do you think ol' Jerry burns a year to develop that kind of speed? Tens of thousands, without a doubt.

    Ed McGivern learned many years ago that the welltrained human trigger finger is faster than any auto loading pistol. That's why all the speed demons use revolvers, Smiths usually, but I did read about a guy that broke one of McGiverns records with a Python a few years ago.

    If you've ever tried a speed load with a revolver, you appreciate just how fast Jerry Miculek can get that thing loaded up and running again. It takes me a good 3 or 4 seconds at my very best. By that time, Jerry is done shooting and looking for something cool to drink.
