[QUOTE="okeydoke, post: 2909710, member: 41320"] (Fairbairn and Sykes, trainers of WW2 commados) designed their combat dagger to have a 7" blade, to allow for " bad angle strikes, incomplete strikes, packharness and the thickness of the Nazi greatcoat". Your lung is just 1" deep in your chest, your heart less than 3". Nobody hits the arms on purpose. you aint a cop, so you'd best not be shooting people who are sideways to you, nor shoot thru any vehicles. Doing so is highly likely to end up with your being sued out of every dime you ever make. Cops often (literally) get away with murder. You will not. Cops get free lawyers in court, You will not. What do you think would happen to you if you stood there and fired 3 rds into the head and neck of a man who had not been in the fight for over 3 minutes, who was bled out, unarmed and helpless?
