I can nail 3, 8 inch targets at 50 feet in 2 seconds. All it takes is a little practice. I would expect any hand gun owner should be able to achieve this goal. But the key is, you have to take the gun out of the box, as I'm sure shopkeeper Clifford has done. And Bernstein doesn't expect anybody to do.

j__z, I cannot agree with the person who made this statement, ''Still, my overall feeling remains that the concealed weapons law has put more guns in our society, and unfortunately some of those guns could fall into the wrong hands.'' My feeling is that crooks are going to get guns where ever they are. And "Responsible" people who have concealed weapons, make life much more difficult for crooks. All you have to do is read the statistics. The facts don't lie. C Kahn
