Ed McGivern could fire six shots from a stock Smith & Wesson 38 Special revolver in 3/5 of a second placing all six shots into the Spade in the Ace of Spades. Using two revolvers he could place 12 shots into the Spade in the Ace of Spades in 1 1/5 second. He performed this feat using electric timers. Target distance was ten feet. At ten feet he could could cut a single playing card in half edge on. Before becoming a trickshooter for S&W he was a lawman. On more than one occasion when holed up outlaws found out that Ed McGivern had been called in they would throw out their guns and give up.

In the late 1960’s the Marine Corps taught young Marines the techniques of “Quick Kill” to increase the survivability of Marines in the “meeting engagements” common in I Corps Vietnam.

Learning these “instinctive shooting” techniques helped me through my life as both an upland bird hunter and as a Skeet/Trap shooter.
