Just finished my second reading of -------
"Ed McGivern's fast and fancy revolver shooting". Mine is the 85 anniversary edition, 478 pages, hard bound with jacket cover [ getting to be a collector item like the rest of the works from the old masters ]
Ed still holds many speed shooting records for time and accuracy achieved. Like 4/10's of a second putting 5 shots inside a playing card from 15 feet. His aerial shooting prowess records with a revo [ or two ] haven't been broken since the 30's. His timing equipment, though crude for the day, was some of the first science introduced to document his phenomenal speed with pin point accuracy attached.
Anyone heard of Ed or read his works?
