did you think they shoot not to kill?
You were using clips? Pre-magazine days.......?did you think they shoot not to kill?
You know, that question came up when I was in training for Security Forces. One person asked the Gunny if we were supposed to shoot to kill because he was teaching us to aim for dead center mass (which is where the heart is). When the person asked if we were being taught to shoot to kill, the Gunny then told them that yes, that is where most of the vital organs are, but, in order to hit your target, you have to aim for the biggest area available, which is the chest.
We weren't taught to shoot to kill, but rather taught to aim for dead center mass so that we had a better chance of stopping the target.
But, we were also taught ammo control. The most shots we took at any single target was only three rounds, not to empty the whole clip into them.

Last I checked most 9 mils and 45s use magazines.........You were using clips? Pre-magazine days.......?did you think they shoot not to kill?

When I first started on Security Force, we were using .45's, but then we switched over to the 9mm. Clips carried 10 rounds each, and we went out with 1 weapon and 2 clips of ammo on patrol, with a total count of 30 rounds.
That was in the mid 90's.

Old school Gunny who was raised using clips. Yeah, a lot of people incorrectly use the terms interchangeably.Last I checked most 9 mils and 45s use magazines.........You were using clips? Pre-magazine days.......?did you think they shoot not to kill?

Well, I can't help the terminology that I learned to use. They called them clips, not magazines.
