I won't argue the video from an accuracy standpoint but he is firing one shot every few seconds. Firing back to back shot, double tap, etc.. the different model and caliber guns do make a difference in my opinion.

You have to love Hickok45... He sure can shoot the heck out of his pistols... Check out the video where he shoots a bunch of watermelons with a Desert Eagle...
And he can carve pumpkins, too..."While the anti-gunners seem very concerned about the "one life" that your firearm might take -- they are not very concerned about the lives it will save." Jon H. Gutmacher, Florida Firearms - Law, Use & Ownership.

While I do believe that some calibers are inherently more accurate than others, I also believe the majority of most modern ammo is more accurate than the majority of people can shoot. Yes there are always exceptions with highly skilled marksman but I believe when you're talking about the average shooter, the ammo is more accurate than the shooter. Just my $0.02
If guns and gun owners are so dangerous, Why are there never any mass murders at the gun range??

Hickock45 has some videos where he shoots a Glock 23 and nails a target at 230 yards. Practice makes perfect, and he is a perfect example. Loads of good videos on his Youtube page. He needs to join us on Glock.Pro!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree with him. Most modern firearms are more accurate than most shooters. However, a new shooter or someone that shoots very little will probably be most accurate with something that doesn't recoil as hard. Give someone who has never shot a gun in their life a G17, and a S&W 29 with a 6" barrel with full power loads. Give them the in class lecture on safety/how to shoot and put them on the range. See which one they are more accurate with especially on the second shot.
What is my point? Find a gun you are comfortable with in a caliber your comfortable with and practice with it. You will soon be looking at his videos and thinking hey I can do that, or that shot don't look that hard. You will surprise yourself on trips to the range as well in regards to how much you improve.

all I can say, is my Glock 19 is more accurate than my Sig P250.
I know this because I can shoot it better.
But really, I have to agree with what I have watch and read. I know that I shoot my Glock 19 better, because I find the trigger easier to shoot with. I know that I will someday shoot both with the same accuracy, because I practice with both.coop
What other people think of me, is none of my business.
