78%

The percentage the NYPD misses what they’re shooting at. This might explain why:

13 Responses to “78%”

  1. The Duck Says:

    Somes Depts hit rate is as low as 11%, some as high as 40% NYPD is about average

  2. GoodGuns Says:

    Is that Aimpoint on backwards?

  3. Jeff the Baptist Says:

    That’s a really old picture though. Like 9-11 old.

  4. D2k Says:

    Ya old picture, but still pretty annoying.
    Another classic is the one with the two security guards with P90s and no magazines.

  5. Metulj Says:

    The badge on the arm is Port Authority PD. You should not be surprised.

  6. Joe Mama Says:

    Wow, I didn’t know steroids could affect your vision!

  7. Ted N(not the Nuge) Says:

    Haha, just too bad most other people won’t notice it.

  8. Paul Says:

    That guy reminds me of the show, ‘The 300’. Turns out they pumped up before each shot so their muscles would bulge more.

    And of course, like the show 300, they give short shift to the THOUSANDS that were not part of their ‘elite’ group, even if they actually do more.

  9. Kristopher Says:

    Blame the armorer.

    He was probably just issued that weapon.

  10. SayUncle Says:

    Kristopher, yes. Apparently, Mr. Arms there has posted on internet forums that he was given the gun and told to stand around and look intimidating. And he said the gun wasn’t loaded.

  11. Beaumont Says:

    I believe a typical WWI doughboy infantry squad, armed with nothing more than bolt-actions (and actual marksmanship training), would be a match for today’s roid-fueled police SWAT teams.

  12. Bubblehead Les Says:

    Jim Cirrillo has got to be spinning in his grave.

  13. John Hardin Says:

    Somes Depts hit rate is as low as 11%, some as high as 40%

    I was doing some reading about police hit rates a few days ago and saw the amazing statistic that their hit rates plummet when multiple officers are shooting. 9% was stated.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
