Fastest revolver shooter around

I may have to rethink my semi-auto.

YouTube - World's fastest handgun shooter

Been posted many times.

This is Jerry Miculek, the S&W factory sponsored exhibition shooter. He has your basic dream job, travelling around the country shooting in matches & exhibitions, all on S&W's dime.

I hate when people do that.

S&W has an ad that runs every Wednesday night on Outdoor Channel that show Jerry shooting and reloading from a different angle and then shows it in slow motion. The slow motion is still fast.

I know some high school students who can shoot that fast...oh, wait a minute, that's shooting their mouths off...

Seen this y-tube vid before a while ago...still unbelievable though...

Jerry's wife is Kay, and she's the daughter of the late Jim Clark Sr. of Clarks Gun's in Princeton LA. Jim Clark Jr I believe runs the gun shop now, they've been in business a long time and do a very good job as gunsmith's etc.

You also need to see some videos of Bob Munden shooting a Colt Single Action. He was billed as the fastest man alive, including the draw. There is one video where he fires 3 shots that sound almost like one long shot. Don't have the link but shouldn't be hard to find. IIRC, the stunt was done with one draw, with left thumb, bird finger, and pinky, catching the hammer fanning style, on one stroke. He and his wife used to do a lot of stunt shows, over 4o yrs. I think, but now he does work on Colt revolvers. You can sometimes see him on Shooting USA on the Outdoor Channel.

Here's Bob Munden's web site:

Bob Munden - The Fastest Gun Who Ever Lived, Munden Enterprises, Fast Draw, Six-Gun Magic, Custom Gun Work, shooting videos, dvds, School of the Fast Gun, history of fast draw, appearances

You can do a Google search for videos, there a a ton of them out there, some of which have been posted here, so I won't go there.

I've seen Munden perform in person. He's the real deal.

But humble, he ain't!

It would be entertaining to see a man on man competition, Munden versus Miculek.

Munden's real speed is in the draw and fire. Miculek's is drawing, firing the six rounds, reloading, and firing six more. Miculek's record for the feat is 2.99 seconds. As the S&W commercial says: That's smokin'.
