Steve Doran proves that any gun can be accurate if you take the time to practice with it. He takes his Smith & Wesson Model 60 snub nosed revolver (1 5/8 inch barrel) and, firing 158 grain .38 Special factory ammunition and manages great accuracy at 100 yards!

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

Practice, practice, practice.

He didn't have anyone shooting back........... or trying to stab him either.



But it was good shooting.........entirely different animal than head shots in a defensive situation.......but, good shooting none the less.

Laser sights have long ago proven that barrel length has nothing to do with accuracy.

its been proven that shorter barrels are more accuarte then longer ones.  the reason being as they are stiffer and flex less.

the site raduis in the prob.  My grandfather can still hit a 8" ballon at 100 yds 4 of 6 shots with a snubbie.   he use to win bets with that shot all the time.
I always break all the clay pigeons,  some times its even with lead.

My short-barreled Super Blackhawk is just as accurate as my 7.5" models at 100 yards.

Good video. I expected single-action but I guess that's too easy.  ;)
""It may be laid down as a primary position, and the basis of our system, that every Citizen who enjoys the protection of a free Government, owes not only a proportion of his property, but even his personal services to the defence of it, and consequently that the Citizens of America (with a few legal and official exceptions) from 18 to 50 Years of Age should be borne on the Militia Rolls, provided with uniform Arms, and so far accustomed to the use of them, that the Total strength of the Country might be called forth at a Short Notice on any very interesting Emergency." - George Washington.
