A somewhat elitist view (granted) of the variety of practical pistol/combat pistol style disciplines.

Pretty much any event where you hold your hands on your hat waiting for a timer to go off.

Those events have a different set of priorities than international slow fire disciplines typically, and therefore the equipment is quite different from that used in slow fire/precision events.

The use of the term "gang banga" was admittedly (my apologies) a somewhat derogatory reference to the "bullet hose philosophy" (there I go again) shared between formal and informal combat shooting.

For a more positive viewpoint try:

And yes, I am sincere in apologizing for "bad mouthing" other competitive shooting disciplines.
