Rekt.

Yeah but bad guy had already fired 15 times in the neighborhood with long gun, best to stop it right then and there.

Good shot with unmagnified optics on top of that, looked to be an open shot with not much around so minimal chance of hitting a civilian

That wasn't luck. That was skill.

Given the number of cops on the force right now that fought in Iraq and Afghanistan, I would feel more comfortable with them taking a shot than allowing the bad guy to keep firing.

He nonchalantly got that gun out the same way I get a pen out of my backpack.

By his complete nonchalance with rounds going off nearby I can imagine this isn't his first rodeo. Moved like he was bored. Just another day at work.

Love to see it.

You absolutely take this shot 10 times out of 10. Neutralize the threat if you have the shot as long as there isn't a group of people standing directly behind your target. You have no idea what this guy could do next. He could start opening fire at anyone he sees.

Uvalde police had a shot before the POS ran into the school and they didn't take it. I bet they wish they would've.

His scope is magnified. It's probably a 3x-6x. Still a great shot with an AR.

You'll notice with how he preps for his shot that he's practicing the "slow is smooth, smooth is fast" mantra. Managing his heart rate, efficient / value added movement only, etc. Dude was mentally setting up well before he shouldered the rifle. Probably well before he chose where to stop his suv.

And he didn't spill his coffee.....

Are we sure that was a real cop?
He only fired one shot instead of emptying the "clip" like we normally see in OIS situations.

Thats a red dot. 1x. No scope

His zero is point of aim point of impact out to 300 yards. No more than 3 inches up or down out to 300. Put it on the body. Send it.

Yes you have to train to have that confidence with your weapon.

183 yards with a pistol would have been a great shot. With an AR, it's one that he should be able to make.

Didn't the Austin cop that engaged a shooter in downtown Austin take a guy out with a pistol from about that range?

Funny that the NRA tweeted this as if they trained him.

By the looks of his kit and performance, this dude doesn't waste his time with NRA classes.

1. Great shot.

2. Not exactly thrilled he was shooting at those distances in a neighborhood.

---

Dude, that was amazing.

His pistol shot ricocheted before striking the subject.

That is luck...

Just noticed the optic mount the officer has on his rifle. On it sits the red dot and an infrared laser for night vision capabilities.

Since the police force doesn't let you run any optic setup, the setup he has had to be procured or approved by the dept. Not every officer is approved for this setup.

It is manuf by GBRS Group. GBRS trains civilians and police forces.

So deduction says. he is highly trained. More than likely on a specialized unit that has no problem with shtf.

And if his red dot was 2 MOA, the dot would only be about 3.5" across at that target distance and ~5.5" if it's a 3 MOA sight. With the dot easily fitting within the target silhouette, any modestly trained individual with good eyesight (no astigmatism or Lasik artifacts) could be comfortable taking that shot.

I hadn't noticed that until I you posted that. Good catch.

I think he started mentally preparing when he took his last sip of coffee and sat it down instead of just throwing it out. Calm and disciplined.

I would bet anything that he was saying B.R.A.S.S. in his mind.

In Wash. St., That's the amazing part.

But long video is f$%^$ing Intense. Jeez.

He's gonna get a lot of ribbing about putting the drink away, like no big deal from his buddies and teammates.

Calling that shot luck is ridiculous. Maybe for some of us but not that skilled officer

Whoever called that luck should apologize

Was this ever confirmed or is this just conjecture?

Or just not talk about firearms.

That's an incredible shot even with low mag optics and a red dot reticle.

I'm guessing he had NRA training, else they would not have made the claim.

Too much downside if they did not.

Watching the long video. He knows he's rolling into an active shooting scene.

And is still as cool as can be... Pretty impressive, not a luck shot.
