while the movies and TV shows created the myth of the "fast gun" and the stand-in-the-street showdown, an actual check of history will show otherwise. Most of the old Western lawmen were fond of rifles and short barreled shotguns, and not shooting from the hip (and missing your target). However, there are sportsmen today that have fast draw and fast shoot competitions- and they are REALLY fast! Run a search for "fast draw champion', and enjoy the reading.
