I know you are being snarky and condescending, but that is fine. I understand the "rules" of these internet forums. Never conceded a point. Guys like you live by that rule. Which is fine, with the meaningless nonsense over which we typically argue on these forums. Our arguments, regardless of how "important" we fool ourselves into thinking they may be, have little influence on others. I'm comfortable with that.

It would be easy to self aggrandize and say "but this is more important - it could be a matter of 'life and death' for some unwitting observer". But I know better. It really isn't. The only thing about any of this that is "important" in any way is only really "important" to guys like you. "Experts" in everything you have never done, places you have never been, people you have never met. Yet, somehow, you are always "right".

Except, well, you failed in that regard in this particular example. This was not in any way this "Mozambique Drill" that you have told us you are a "fan of". Double tap to the torso, observe reaction, and in the face of a lack of any reaction (this is really a test to see if the subject is wearing body armor or not), put a round in the head. This kid did not do that.

He was a disengaged third party, and took advantage of the fact that the perp was busy with someone else. This scenario actually does play out on occasion, when a third party who is not actually engaged in the struggle has an opportunity to intervene, to "come to the rescue". In these cases, yes, a head shot may be possible, and it might be worth trying. This is, however, a very, very unique situation. And it is in no way an example of the "Mozambique Drill".

So, I'll ask you again - show us an example of this "Mozambique Drill" in action. Or at least show us examples of self defenders, personally under attack, who mange to shoot the perp in the face. On purpose. Like you have told us you would do.

So, please - "waste my time". I have plenty of it, I'm retired. And I am, in fact, in spite of your snarky reply, truly interested in learning. I really am.
