I just came across this Guy's charging bear testing system and thought you Guys might enjoy it... he even has another video of doing it with rifles and shotguns... it's a true eye opener as to how many accurate shots that might be possible during a 2-3 second charge.
Very interesting. About what I would expect. I only watched it once very quickly so I could have missed something.....but....
One thing I didn't hear him mention was speed of draw. It certainly looked quicker getting the Glock into play. Quicker draw moving a shorter barrel from a holster with an easier to access grip. Would be interesting to see the same done with handgun already in hand.
There may be some validity to what he is doing, but that is mostly an entertainment video. Standing at ready with your rifle in hand is not a real life bear encounter. The bear approaching him at that speed is likely real time, but without the rifle in hand and ready to fire, he would have been a sandwich for that bear.
Snowshoes on hard pack takes some seriousness out of what he is doing, it is easy to be critical, but he makes it even easier...
the consolidation of the states into one vast republic, sure to be aggressive abroad and despotic at home, will be the certain precursor of that ruin which has overwhelmed all those that have preceded. Robert E Lee ~Molɔ̀ːn Labé Skýla~

I figured he'd only get one shot off with the single action, but there's no excuse for that one shot being so inaccurate. The single action has been known for a very long time to be quite easy to draw, cock, and accurately fire the first shot at least on par with a semi-auto pistol.

Yes. You cock as you draw, so that factor shouldn't slow you down in getting that first sight picture. The trigger pull is certainly not the issue, as it's light and crisp. It's having to then cock again for subsequent shots that slows you down vs a semi-auto. For the first shot, though, you should be on par, if you know how to draw, cock, and shoot a single action revolver.
He sucks....??? I'm not so sure... after all... he is drawing from a holster and then shooting at a charging target... that is a real life test. His first videos where stationary paper targets, but that wasn't real life testing so he rigged up this system. I think the actual time from the first shot to the last shot is pretty short.

Well then you suck too. A revolver is easy to shoot fast with a little practice - and he's never practiced. A heavy chunk of steel like that Redhawk makes 44mag very controllable.
There are a heck of a lot of people that carry handguns for self defense that probably have less experience than the guy in the video and they think they are "good enough." Fortunately they seldom actually have to use their gun and they manage to get by without shooting themselves in the foot and then being killed by a bad guy or eaten by a bear.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
