Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Church shooting Ft Worth TX

That church guy made one hell of a great shot in short time, under stress...

THAT'S the way it's done, folks!

Sorry the one good guy died. Happy the bad guy died.

Dang. Lottsa guns drawn after the first volley.



Good enough, Texas.



Was that dude trying to rob the collection??

There's a few cops that can shoot too.

FIFY!

It's been said online that the guy who made the kill shot is retired FBI and a concealed carry instructor.

Texas may have a leg up in that department...

Nashville certainly doesn't- - - -a few years back when Nashville PD switched from revolvers to Glocks, I asked a precinct captain who was also a firearms instructor what his people needed with a double-stack magazine. He replied that they could "throw away" a few rounds while diving for cover without having to reload. He mumbled something vaguely obscene when I asked it the officer was going to be held responsible for collateral damage from poorly-aimed shots.

This guy was no rookie- - - - -20-something years on the job, and an instructor!

Helluva moving head shot. That security guy is cool as a cucumber in a high stress situation.

Just wish he'd been quicker.

So the bad guy.........hippie or dreads?
Wondering since the Jew stabber and college girl killer have their diversity shielded by the media for the most part.
Fox today had somebody mention (guest) that minority folks are rather hateful and it needs called out.

Am glad the good guys shut the bad guy down. Coulda been worse.

Sooner or later folks are gonna start getting proactive.

The shot that security guard made across the heads of the people and across the auditorium was a fantastic shot. The other thing this proves to me is the little .380 Tomcat or Walther PP I carry to church is inadequate for effective firepower at the distances shown in that video. I can now see that a .45 ACP 1911 or my 9mm Hi-Power, either probably in a shoulder holster, or my .44 Special Bulldog revolver on my hip, is going to be the preferred rig at church. The first man who was gunned down appeared to be reaching for a hand gun on his right rear hip, and was very slow in drawing his weapon. I'm not advocating being a fast draw, but he was too slow in drawing his weapon after detecting the threat. Watching the security officer, he ducked and drew his weapon in one motion and stepped forward with the single kill shot, as if he was well practiced, which is obvious he was. I'm sure this video will eventually show up on the youtube channel that TRH always posts for us.

Thanks TRH

Thank you for posting a very valuable life lesson!

At least 4 parishioners were packin’ .... AMEN:

I am a Church of Christ sheepdog also. Very eye opening, may change what I carry..

I counted 5 parishioners including two women. Most likely the good guy shooter had a 9mm. Local reports may specify some of those details.
MAGA is found in many places.

The fat guy that was shot and the security guard both started reaching for their pistols at about the same time. The fat guy got his out sooner, though it looked like maybe the security guard needed 2 hands to get his loose. The biggest difference I saw was the guard brought his up and shot like he'd done it before, while the fat guy noodled his.

Looked like 7, including the security guy.

It looks like the good guy who brought down the shooter had some kind of malfunction/stoppage after his first shot. He seems to be fiddling a lot with his pistol as if trying to clear a stoppage.
