So, double or single, the chances of you hitting someone with your first round are slim, unless you are Front Sight trained or something radical like that. Once they hear a bang though, they're either pissing themself and trying to get to their gun (which is probably illegal, damn criminals) or just pissing themself while trying to get out of there.

I'm not saying that you should fire in the air to make noise, that's stupid. I'm just saying hit or miss, the first round always does something. Like the starter gun in a race, only instead of a race, the starter gun is just being fired more. Might not be the most serious or correct way of looking at it, but it makes sense from a certain standpoint.

I've trained myself based on professional insite to use two forms of shooting.

1. If the target is close to mid-range, I square off (feet parted equally), draw the pistol, hug it to the chest, extend my arms so the gun is eye level, touch the trigger, press (extend, touch, press). You'd be amazed how well this technique works if you want to shoot something fast.

2. If the target is farther away, step forward with my non-dominant (left) leg, extend my arms, use the sights to full advantge, squeeze trigger.

It's a lot easier to show you than explain it in writing, but hopefully you get what I'm saying.

You can never trust that he'll miss and that you will scare him, I'd whole-heartedly rather hit him before he even gets a CHANCE to miss.
