DOUBLE IRON FIST ACTION SHOOT!

So today I was able to get home at a respectable hour :) lucky me - so what do I do? I watch the second episode of BLACK LAGOON. While I am still at odds about my true feelings for this anime I find it refreshing that the main actress actually LOOKS like she has the body and the psychotic mindset to fight with two Baretta 92FS (9mm) pistols - given that she is always shooting one handed with her relatively small frame. (I am trying to come to grips if I am more attracted to her ripped up jean shorts or her shoulder rig and pair of Barettas).

As a gun geek aside it is almost given that the mangaka is a John Woo fan of some sort - I know I was smitten withthe Baretta 92FS when I started shooting. This was when I had little access to shooting real guns as many mangakas are in Japan. Still He seems well versed in the operation and realism of guns. (+1 even with my snobbish prejudice)

As you know I am very anti 'gun and girls' anime, but I think I am drawn to the authour's drive as he seems to put a lot of detail into the firearms and seems like he really has a knowledge for them.

OFCOURSE with classic 'BAD ENGLISH THEATRE' greats such as:
"Rock N' Roll Fuckin' Fried Chicken!"
"Omae-tachi wo FUCK o shiteyaru ze!"
"Holy Fuckin' Christ!"
(NOTE: this was ACTUALLY aired on TV - they pulled a 'firefly')
"Amen. Halleluyah. Peanuts Butter!"
"I'll fly you to the moon! (this was said in Japanese tho)"

GENIUS! If you can't tell I am a big fan of 'BAD ENGLISH THEATRE' since college and find it totally appealing to a certain degree. I can only dare to hope native Japanese speakers feel the same when I botch up their language ^_^. (With only 5 tankobouns, its awesome this guy got picked up as an anime)

Which ofcourse brings me to the topic of shooting. After watching that I brought 300 rounds of .45 ACP to the range tonight and proceeded to break in one of my 1911s some more. While the first 200 rounds came and went - I thought - HEY! I haven't done one handed shooting in a while!!!

Plugged my iPod to my headset listening to Elvis for 2 hours... and so I present to you. 100+/- rounds from alternating right hand only and left hand only.

The target is at 7 yards (21 feet) while this feat is nothing to serious competitive bullseye shooters, it was a load of fun for me who hasn't practiced this - the result totally blew me away! : )
-Green area is approximately 70 rounds of one handed right hand shooting.
-While what freaked me out was the orange 3" circles. These are one handed shots with the LEFT HAND ONLY.

I think I may have found the most comfortable one handed stance.
Unfortuantely this is the best pic I could find in short notice.

Notice the one handed stance (and John Browning's 1911), now being perverted as I am, imagine the opposite hand on your belt buckle (as is done by competitive shooters) crotch way out, sholders back - Yes.. JOJO POSING SCHOOL style. Hey's it's weird but it works. It gives me (for now) enough support while also relaxing my shoulders (thus the 70 shots from right hand only - I'd go thru the math but I won't bore you). I find myself beng less fatigued than the typical butt out lean forward TWO HAND stance.

Anyways... that is all. What a night : )
