(By which I definitely do not mean 90% of the time, or something silly like that - a, say, 50% chance of making a shot that'll stop someone dead is significant enough. Probably should have made that clear.)  Obviously, if someone is 10 yards away and sprinting, things change quite a bit - but it's not like we're trying to be unfair to win an argument and assuming he's just going to blast away like crazy every 1-second round with a high-recoil piece of crap like a Desert Eagle, are we? <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />You can easily make a starting 100 point gunman with 15 DEX, 12 Int and 8 points in the relevant firearms skill with a handgun with a Snap Shot value of 10 and Recoil of 1 that can take up to 6 points of penalties and still be able to make two shots per round at someone's vitals without going below his Snap Shot number (the second one going up to -7) for around 60% and 50% chances to hit, or an 80% chance of hitting at least once.Not that I dislike GURPS, or anything, by the way...</blockquote>
