Reminds me of the book Shoot to kill by Fairbairn, I think his

'Shooting to Live', I think, along with Sykes. I'm too lazy to go hunting
for the book.

The US Army published a manual 'Principles of Quick Kill' to go with a
training program. They used Daisy BB guns.

I adapted the idea to use with a BB pistol. With half decent lighting you
can see the BB in flight and correct sort of like trying to soak the cat
with a garden hose. (no, I'd never do something like that)

Airsoft works too and they make glow in the dark airsoft pellets for low
light practice.

For a while I did USPSA.

They're all about two handed grips, Weaver stance and so forth, which I
was not used to. I was never very good at it but I did learn from the
experience. It might be counter-productive in the real world. You engage
each target with a 'double tap' and move on to the next target. That could
be a bad habit to get into.
