There is time between the pulling of the trigger and the firing of the bullet. That time is taken by mechanical parts in the gun between the trigger and the bullet moving around (often just the firing pin, sometimes there are more parts in between).My point is that like a wand, a gun requires activation. This activation takes place before the gun goes off. Not much before, but there is an interval.</blockquote>
