Sad news. Remember when they hosted their convention in Las Vegas? Competitors needed one extra round, to complete the combat pistol course. The second from last target was a mannequin, in a Red Army uniform. You had to drop the mannequin with a chest shot, them remove a loaded Tokarev pistol from its holster, and fire a final shot to finish the course. From memory, the Soviet embassy lodged a diplomatic protest with the State Department.

Gee I miss the Reagan years.
