"Man shoots and kills 2 inside a Texas church before parishioners fatally shoot him." "A video livestream from the church, seen by CNN, appears to show how the shooting unfolded. The entire incident, from the time the shooter pulled out his gun until he was shot, took six seconds." A little bit of 'Old Testament' coming to the fore. edition.cnn.com/2019/12/29/us/church-shooting-texas/index.html

The first guy that got shot made a quite obvious display of reaching for a weapon right in front of the shooter and then took a long time to get to his weapon thanks to where he had it and how he was dressed. That sequence of events cost him his life unfortunately.

Thanks for sharing this Spinifex. Outstanding shot from the defender. I guess it really pays to carry your pistol where you can draw quickly, then spend a lot of time on relevant practice.

Is it legal to carry a double barrel SG over there? I kinda like the notion of walking around dressed in tweed jacket and corduroy breeches with a nice Purdey or H&H tucked over my arm ... on special occasions.

The second victim should've gone to the floor and then come up shooting. Easy to say I guess especially when I wasn't there, but his response was too slow and he telegraphed it all the way!
