Miculek and the .44 Magnum
« on: December 03, 2013, 07:29:35 PM »
Six shots of magnums on target in around a second.   

"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

Jerry is the most amazing shooter I have ever seen, him and the late Bob Munden.

I watched them both shoot a snub, upside down at 200 yards and burst a balloon...amazing, both of them!  Actually, I think Jerry shot a coke can...

Even though your words are what are known as superlatives, (like perfect and random, they leave no room for modifiers) they somehow fall a little short in describing this awesome shooter. 

There should be something in the English language that denotes a level above perfection. 

And yes, I know this is a semantic impossibility.  But the dude is so much better than "most amazing."

Sheesh...  I am arguing with my own sense of reason.

sub·lime  (s-blm)
adj.
1. Characterized by nobility; majestic.
2.
a. Of high spiritual, moral, or intellectual worth.
b. Not to be excelled; supreme.
3. Inspiring awe; impressive.
4. Archaic Raised aloft; set high.
5. Obsolete Of lofty appearance or bearing; haughty: "not terrible,/That I should fear . . . /But solemn and sublime" (John Milton).
n.
1. Something sublime.
2. An ultimate example.


And I agree, Miculek and Munden qualify.

Of the two, Jerry seems to be the most versatile and Bob seemed to be the fastest, at least with a single action. 

Bob seemed to be most proud of his ability while Jerry seems more pleased and tickled by what he does.
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

Munden was more humble than his TV persona.... it was part of his 'thing'........... and he could shoot a myriad of guns about as well as he could his SA (and was a heck of a gunsmith, from what I read and saw in an interview)...... it just seemed everyone wanted to see him shoot the sixguns more than anything (myself included). On one TV episode he opened a safety pin with a 1911 and hit a target at 200 yards with a NAA mini .22lr.


Jerry is as natural with any and all firearms as anyone I've seen...... he is a shooter's shooter, if you will.


I would easily categorize both men in the superhuman arena.


OK, one two more.... I never get tired of these:
