If you are referring to center of mass against a target like that i.e. no glancing shots that skid off the rounding of the skull or the meat of the back, you have a legitimate target area of about 3 to 4 inches.For reference an IDPA target has a COM of 8 inches from edge to edge and there are plenty of erstwhile ccw holders missing with no threat of injury.As a general rule, those recommending better marksmanship in these cases probably haven't a clue what a threat looks like over the sights and probably shouldn't be critical unless they really have some concrete knowledge of the incident.Michael Brown</blockquote>
