I hope it was out an open window unless accosting some bad guy
Out the window at a ground hog. Dad always said next time he’d take his time and rest his elbows on the windowsill and extend the muzzle outside... :-) But after that he always said the “cop shows” were nuts, after the typical shoot-out indoors, everyone would be deaf, they wouldn’t hold a normal conversation about where to chase down the bad guys next.
