As someone who carries and fires handguns routinely, I concur with Mr. Davis in that I want as many gangstas as possible to adopt this shooting style.
'In theory this works, but in practice you can't accurately measure movement left or right and you have absolutely no way of knowing if the weapon is tilted down below your field of vision from the back of the weapon.
'This means that you never actually take the same shot twice since you are never actually aiming the same way.'
This, Mr Davis adds, shows that there is in fact a rational method behind why gangsters aim their weapon side on. However, it's not a particularly good method
Actually "saggin" is a well-known defensive tactic that has been proven to save gangstas' lives during shoot-outs. "Saggin" changes the perceived COM of the gansta, so LEOs tend to shoot low and hit fewer vital organs.Jim Beaux wrote:I guess the next baloney article will justify saggin

They should just do an average Joe who has a 'menacing' look on his face. Nothing more. Stupid Hollywood.
