      Pistols are designed for and effective beyond 7 yards.
      You should be able to hit the target accurately from 25 yards and they’re effective out to 50 yards.
      The 7 yard number is in relation to the alleged average self-defense shooting distance from unreliable studies with minimal data and was based on police shootings where the officer was injured and not civilian self-defense shootings.
      Paul Harrell does a nice job explaining this in one of his videos.

      A pistol can be a rifle, but a rifle can not be a pistol... placing a long barrel on it turns it into a rifle classification while the barrel is on with a pistol registered lower.. Lawfully you can not conceal it with the 16in barrel. . Stay safe

      It would be ridiculously easy to just put a stock and simple handguard on any pistol. In a fictional apocalyptic scenario where guns are scarce but combat is fought at long range (like a Mad max style desert), stock pistols will still outperform the smooth barrel blasters most wastelanders will be able to make.

    This just reinforces what I have always kind-of known about modern firearms and range: We are largely at a point where the firearm is not responsible for missing, but the limitations of human physiology. In the old days bad design, manufacture, and poor understanding of ballistics was limiting accuracy. That has been so finely ironed out for the most part that our eyes and other factors like our heartbeat and shaking hands are a bigger factor. That's why you were able to do this crazy shit with a high powered scope and stabilizing stick. In our current age of tech, we are on the very cusp of things like HUD tech that can artificially magnify without bulky scopes, and link the position of a gun barrel with a sensor fast enough to on-the-fly correct for range, windage, hand shake, trigger pull, and even the air density and damn Coriolis effect of the earth's rotation. Compact A.I. ballistic calculators and HUD scopes are what is coming. And whoever gets them first will have a huge military advantage, while those selling them will make a shit ton of money.

You are probably talking about the rifle that could fire mini airburst grenades timed precisely to explode and hit people around corners and behind cover, or even detonate inside a person hit by it. It worked amazingly well, but the Geneva Convention prohibits explosive rounds so the program was cancelled. But an auto-targeting HUD or even "smart" bullets that change direction are fine - as long as they don't explode.

    Very interesting question. Ed McGivern did extensive experiments with long-range handgunning back in the 1930s, which is thoroughly covered in his book Fast and Fancy Revolver Shooting. He was getting excellent results with the .357 Magnum out as far as 600-800 yards. Elmer Kieth famously took a deer at over 400 yards with a 4" .44 Magnum. Silhouette shooters would regularly drop their targets at hundreds of yards when that competition was popular. Handguns like the Luger and Mauser Model 1896 which were often equipped with shoulder stocks had rear sights graduated out to 1,200 meters. Which is rather optimistic, but also possible. Really any competent handgunner can put fire on a man-size target out to 200 yards easily, and I've done it. Many much further than that. This was well covered by Ed McGivern, Charles Askins, Bill Jordan and others up through the 1960s. Excellent experiment. Very well done. You've rediscovered long-range handgunning, and it's fun.

    My take on the mile shot: despite the bullet would be lethal, it would be *tumbling* through the air. What it means is we have no way to know where it would land, since we no longer have gyroscopic stabilization and/or aerodynamic stabilization. Any precision goes out of the window.

    I have a suggestion to make a pistol make the 1 mile shot, but it requires a *bit* of extra gear. you need to be able to mount the scope, a laser range finder, and a high-end smart-phone, all onto the pistol. Here's how it works. you aim down the scope directly at the target to get the accurate range to the target, and use the smart-phone to take a picture of your target through the scope. you will also need to write an app for this next part for the phone, but use the phone's built in gyroscope sensors (used to detect phone orientation, and also allow a phone to be used as a level) to calculate where the bullet will land how it is pointed and super-impose that onto the photo of the target, rather than showing where the scope is actually aiming, and trusting the gyroscope in the phone to accurately know exactly where the gun is pointing to within several decimal places of a degree, which I don't actually think most smart phones can do, so maybe getting a dedicated rotational tracker of some kind idk what they're called, but they exist. in theory, you should be able to line up a shot. In theory you could also have the phone adjust for wind and elevation.
