You can forget sometimes how awesome a shot Hickok really is. Truly a dead eye.
and he dont need no stinkin optics neither!😅
You shoot this gun as accurate as I have ever seen. Impressive, knocked the center out of the paper target. Well done!

Absolutely!!
My M&P 10mm 4.6" has been excellent so far, without a single issue. And I've fed it everything from 40 S&W target loads to full power Underwood hardcasts. It's now my official backcountry gun.
Perfect gun for that! I wouldn’t use it in the city for SD.
Mine too!
@@bpri9880 Why not for self defense?
@@judahlion5826 potential for over penetration. And I’ve seen grown men who couldn’t handle the recoil in a safe manner during stressful training. I think it’s a great round but maybe not for self defense against humans.
@@bpri9880 All depends on how it is loaded. There are 10mm that barely feel like anything more than 40 S&W, and others - full power 10mm, that are definitely at a whole different level. That's one of th virtues of 10mm - the spectrum of loading that it offers for different applications.
Hickok is just the best at what he does. Wouldn't be surprised if he's a retired school teacher. He's so good at explaining everything!!
He is a retired English teacher
I like it when the angle is right you can see the bullet going to the gong .👍😊🎯
Has less to do with the angle and more to do with the low velocity of the round he's shooting. A hot 10mm will get there much quicker and you'll never see it.
I like to think the guy at 00:35 is cheering out of joy to hear someone at the range.
Heard that too lol, I’d bet this is hickok’s personal range, probably a family friend or something

I've watched many of your videos so I'm well aware of your awesome shooting capabilities and yet I'm left in awe after every one.
Crazy D riding
I always imagine Hickok at Walmart picking up random soda, watermelons and terracotta pots.
I've been glowing up M&P products lately at my work. Especially the M&P 2.0 10mm. One of the best shooting polymer framed handguns in my opinion. Also perfect for my smaller hands.
M&P is a great gun. People hate on it for no reason.
I used to have a 9 mm Shield (which unfortunately, although it felt wonderful to carry and I really liked it, I couldn’t hit the broadside of a barn with it), and a 45 Shield (which was a fantastic pistol). Sadly, I sold both of them because I couldn’t find the no thumb safety models when I bought them, I’m not sure it even existed in the 45 when I got it, and I had to quit shooting right handed and start shooting left-handed. I am mostly a Glock guy now, but you won’t see me bad mouthing M&P’s. And I hope one day to be able to get another one with no thumb safety.
@@BlueRidgeCritter why does it matter if there’s a safety on it or not? Just for looks? It’s a tiny little flipper. I didn’t even notice mine when I picked up my shield plus yesterday.
M&Ps have the best feeling grip out of all of its competitors. They’re better feeling, and easier to shoot for myself at least. I recently picked up a G20 and love it, but if M&P ever does a FDE 10 I’m going to have a hard time not snapping one up.
I love that "pop the gong" (3:27). You can actually see the bullets in flight traveling out to the gong!! But I sure wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of that bullet!
Watching the slugs travel mid-air never gets old
Yeah, that is so cool!!
@@cjohnson9211 Play it back at .25 speed
My first m&p 2.0 was a 40 performance. Next, it was a 10mm. I was not planning on buying a gun. But I liked the way it felt. Now, I am about to go and pick up my new 2.0 in 9mm.
Hi , which one do you carry the most at the moment?
@@Papakadush my smith 2.0 9mm and my taruas 9mm.
I bought this gun over the other 10mm's. My first shots I thought I hated it, the tighter I squeezed it would still try and come out of my hands. So after the first mag I changed out the backstop to the smaller size (easiest to change also)and what a night and day difference. Glad I got this one.
I bought one of these, first time I picked it up I knew it was the one. When I shot it, solidified my decision.
Sir you are a great shooter. Every gun you handle fits you well👍
Be funny to see him shoot a Beretta Tom cat lol. Or a tiny derringer.
I love this pistol, shoots straight and hits hard. If I do my part, proper grip, align the sights and trigger press. It's a tack driver. It dosen't forgive sloppy handling, and let's me know quickly if I'm not focused on good fundamentals.
Absolutely well put, when I slow down and feel the trigger guns a dead ringer. Just ignore the white front dot and I’m good.
hickok45, i just want to say thank you for making so many videos over the years. it would not be the same without you and your family
@hickok45 today was a good day, caught my 4yo daughter singing "freedom is alive...hickok45...life is good"
You can see the rounds hitting the gong. Great video production, gear, cameraman. Great vid
yea that was so awesome!!!!!
If you take a look at his older videos, you’ll see how the range has changed over the 15 years
Make a viral video of all the changes in a timelapse.
3:31 you can see the rounds in the air before they impact the gong. Awesome
so technically bad guys can actually see the bullet before impact
At that distance the bullet has already de-accelerated...
@@mmafanatic-tz5or the bullet decelerates immediately after barrel exit, the distance has no significance
@@hardeepbhatti5338 it doesn't de-accelerate to the point where you can see it. Once that bullet reaches that distance, It's probably going significantly less than 700 ft per second... At that speed, the human eyes can see it.
I bought a M&P 2.0 10mm with a 4.625 inch barrel with no safety lever. Had a gunsmith install an Apex flat aluminum trigger in black to it. Used the Apex trigger replacement for the M&P 2.0 9mm, 40 S&W and 45 ACP but it needed alteration to fit the 10mm hence the gunsmith trip. 24 pound Wolff spring and new guide rod to fit it from MIDWAY USA for M&P 2.0 9mm, 40 S&W and 45 ACP and an extra 19 pound spring. Holosun T 508 solar backup red dot using C&H Precision aluminum mounting plate and stainless steel screws. Love it!!!
Mr Hickok your accuracy with the 10mm is incredible you are a great spokesman for the shooting sports and glad I’ve been subscribed from the beginning of your channel
Thank you for the years of firearms education. I enjoy every video you make and the consistent format. God bless you all.
I picked one up Thursday Sept 28, 2023. can't wait to get it to the range. It feels really good in my hand, has 3 different palm swells that come with it. The small fit me best as for now.
Update ? Is it still good? I heard bad about it. Even the trigger feeling heavy
Everyone said I was crazy when I said 10mm is best millimeter and now every pistol maker has a 10mm. All that's left is for CZ to make a true 75 in 10mm.
I own that exact model and it’s been flawless with very hot underwood and target ammo, so far no issues at 300 round count thus far. 4.6 inch model.
Great review I appreciate what you and John do! I’ve been hoping for this review for months!
You can tell he likes this gun and knows it's hold well. I found a 2.0 10mm 4.6" in stock at Sportsman's and jumped on it. Mine wears an SRO and a TLR-1 HL, and still fits IWB inside a Phlster floodlight holster. I also agree it is a dead accurate shooter, and I love shooting it.
When you want to see guns. This is the place.
I own a M&P M2.0 in .40 S&W and was my carry gun for 2 years before I went to a 9mm. Other than the weight of the .40 cal, it's a solid platform.
Sweet! I love m and p. I’ve had a 9mm pro model for years and absolutely love it. I don’t currently own a 10mm but I think this one may be my first
These pistols have a serious design flaw with their magazines. With ammunition that has a wide nose (underwood hard cast 200 or 220 for example) the magazine catch will be pushed out of the mag by the nose of the bullet durring cycling causing the mag to fall out of the gun. So be sure your intended ammunition leaves some room in that window for the mag catch or after 1 or 2 shots you'll be holding a paperweight. Smith wesson has been informed about this for almost a year and has done nothing.
My current workaround for this is to load 10 Xtreme Penetrators, topped off with 5 hardcasts (and +1). I hate this, because XP's are expensive and I'd never select them if I didn't have to. I do have a 24# RSA and stronger mag springs in mine.
He mentioned in the video he thought the mag fell out once. Sounds like S&W tried too hard make the gun smaller and lighter (and slimmer) than other 10mm models.
@@spacebear49 I honestly agree with this. It is barely larger than M&P9 and M&P40, fits into the same holsters, maybe with a loosening of a retention screw. My guess is that they designed the mag as they did, and completely contrary to all their other mags, to cram the 15th round in, which otherwise wasn't fitting. I'm not sure why that would be, if the 40 fits 15 rounds just fine and they have identical dimensions except case length. 9 and 40 are very nice and reliable, so is the 45 (identical frame to the 10), why would 10 be different? Other than the grip width to accommodate the longer rounds, there's really no need to make things thicker or bulkier. It's a mystery.
This looks as fun shooting as the M&P 9mm and 45 I have. I've never had any ammo or other issues with my M&Ps
Not enough difference to make a difference, you and Paul Harrell are my favorite youtube channels. Love the content. And now I need a new 10mm.
I've been looking forward to the day he did this gun. Such a nice-looking piece.
Always factor in your vids when i'm out for a new gun. So thanks! Appreciate it a lot!
Greets, T.
Hickok45 is frighteningly accurate with a hand gun at any distance and speed.
Love my M&P 40 full size and compact. Was issued the Smith 1076 when on duty and carried it for about five years. 10 mm is a robust round and that big Smith was quite the platform - it weighed about 46 ounces so was easily able to accomplish its purpose. Probably the finest LE service weapon I ever had, but, not for the small of stature or mediocre shot. This 2.0 looks like a great piece, and Hickok 45 makes everything look like the best thunderstick ever built. Well done.
Love the M&P line. Have the M&P 22, M&P 9, M&P 40 and now their Dad 😀
Just got it a couple of weeks ago an love it.
You mean the .45 right? 10mm seems like that crazy uncle that body builds and takes steroids 😅
@@Oscar-iw2xm 😂😂😂
@@Oscar-iw2xm Nope, I mean the 10mm.
But the 45 will come home too 🥰
Hi how are you doing. I wish you a happy weekend 😊
Those 3 bullseyes 🎯 were awesome
I was going to get one of these, but with all the problems they were having I’ve never had a problem with any of my M&P I decided to go with the Springfield XD elite 10 MM
I was waiting for this firearm the M&P 2.0 10MM I have enough 9mm’s so I bought 2 of them they are awesome thanks for showing how good this firearm is 💯⚜️
Another great review! I would like to see you compare the M&P, the Glock 20, the Springfield and the new Sig 320 all in 10mm someday.
Pretty cool that you can easily see the bullet traveling to the gong.
I got the double stack mag and 5.6 barrel... I haven't picked it up from my FFL yet, but I think the extra weight will lessen recoil a touch... another great video... many thanks.
Hickok 45 is the greatest anyone im doing research on a future purchase i watch his video he’s honest and one hell of a shot! I’ve been watching his channel since before I was of age to buy a firearm now im 33
3:31 seeing the boolit fly out and hit the gong is just too cool
This guy can make any gun look good (stock and everything), even a Hi point :D
I like the Hogue Grip Sleeves for my narrow M&P’s. Makes it just right, you should give one a try. Feels great in the hand plus not expensive. The “HandAll Hybrid” (Blk) SKU: 17400 is what would work best here for you.
Hickock45 - You've mentioned before that you have large hands. I have huge hands, and small grip guns feel very hard to handle in my grip. My Glock 40 Gen 4 fits me perfectly, as do the Rock Island Armory double stack 10mm 1911 A2's. I carry a Taurus G3. The grip is smaller than I'd like, but the extra length of the 17 round mags helps. I also have a Taurus G3c. That gun is almost impossible for me to grip properly, to the point that I'm thinking of selling it. Something to realize is that guys with XXL hands are the minority. The handgun manufacturers have to make grips for the average user. I do know that M&P comes with replaceable back straps for people with different hand sizes, but that won't affect the thinness.
Its amazing how small that firearm looks it your hand.
Really a deceptive part of his reviews. Hickock is a giant and isn't exactly the best analogue for the average shooter's frame. I think I saw somewhere he's like 6'8 or so?
@@haroldfarquad6886 O.O
@@haroldfarquad6886 yea he's a pretty big fella
@@haroldfarquad6886 Yeah, he's a giant. 6'9" recorded, self declares 6'8".
Thank you for your review. I am now convinced to buy the M&P 10mm.
Nice video, not my favorite gun, but watching you shoot any handgun is a treat when the cameraman is on the ball. I especially like close-ups of the target you are shooting.
Hi how are you doing. I wish you a happy weekend 😊
Still my favorite handgun of all time. A ton of power in such a small package. And it’s an auto loader.
Hickok45; best review ever! You bought the gun yourself, then as soon as you locked and loaded unleashed hit after hit all on target, best shooting I have seen, you also nailed multiple targets one handed. I just bought my S&W 10mm this Monday, grip is perfect, sights brilliant. S&W make the best shooters, and they are made in The USA
His precise accuracy is incredible!
3:30 you can literally see the 10mm travel and hit the gong!👀🤯🆒
Thank you Hickok45 for all your wisdom
I bought the RIA 1911 A2FS tact ten years ago when high capacity was limited to Glock and RIA. Since I hate almost everything about about a Glock, it made the choice easy.
I had a problem with the front sight falling off but after replacing it and adding a 27# recoil spring (it was slinging brass 30 yards) I would trust and prefer this heavy pistol in bear country over any striker fired 10 mm! The single action 70 series trigger in a 2011 is the best of both worlds! Did I mention it’s heavy! Like 56 oz heavy! It’s a shoulder holster pistol for sure but I didn’t buy it for EDC!

My S&W M&P 10mm M2.0 4.6" pistol range update for Saturday, Sept. 30, 2023, testing my new magazine extensions from Floyd's Custom Shop, Inc. (located in Blanchard, ID). These extensions give me two 16-round mags and one 20-round mag.
I ran 280 rounds of 10mm Auto ammo through my pistol today, bringing my grand total round-count of 10mm Auto ammo to 2,101. I experienced three near FTF jams with one specific type of ammo. I say "near" because ultimately these three rounds did feed on their own, but they did not go smoothly into battery (more on this, below). I put the following rounds of 10mm Auto ammo down range today:
1. Steinel Ammo 180 Gr FN FMJ × 100 rounds (1,140 FPS MV; 519 FtLbs ME). Clean, accurate, soft-shooting, low-powered for 10mm Auto, flawless operation.
2. Underwood Ammo Range Supply 180 Gr FN FMJ x 50 rounds (1,250 FPS MV; 624 FtLbs ME). Clean, very accurate, potent, moderately-powered 10mm Auto, flawless operation.
3. "'Blemished' on sale" SIG Sauer Elite Ball 180 Gr FMJ x 50 rounds (1,250 FPS MV; 624 FtLbs ME). Clean, accurate, potent, moderately-powered 10mm Auto, three near FTF jams. I could feel my pistol almost choke on three of these rounds, rather than smoothly slam them into battery, but these three rounds did feed on their own without any added input from me. Post-firing, I examined the cases and found slight barrel-like bulging, and micro-fracturing, around the central and top areas of these cases. SIG did post a warning in the product description on their website that this "blemished" ammo might not be totally reliable... but it was on sale at a pretty big discount, so I decided to roll the dice. Buyer beware - scrutinize each of these cartridges individually before attempting to fire them.
4. Underwood Ammo 180 Gr Hornady XTP JHP x 20 rounds (1,300 FPS MV; 675 FtLbs ME). Clean, very accurate, potent, moderately high-powered 10mm Auto, flawless operation.
5. Underwood Ammo 155 Gr Hornady XTP JHP x 20 rounds (1,500 FPS MV; 774 FtLbs ME). Clean, very accurate, very potent, full-powered 10mm Auto, flawless operation.
6. Underwood Ammo 200 Gr FN HCL x 20 rounds (1,250 FPS MV; 694 FtLbs ME). Smokey, very accurate, very potent, high-powered 10mm Auto, flawless operation. No uncommanded / unwanted magazine drops.
Please note that I've now run 100 rounds of this specific load through my pistol with only one malfunction of any kind, a FTF, back in mid-May 2022 with my pistol in its original factory stock configuration.
7. Underwood Ammo 220 Gr FN HCL x 20 rounds (1,200 FPS MV; 703 FtLbs ME). Smokey, very accurate, very potent, high-powered 10mm Auto, flawless operation. No uncommanded / unwanted magazine drops.
Please note that I've now run 120 rounds of this specific load through my pistol with no malfunctions of any kind whatsoever.
So my M&P 10mm Auto 4.6" pistol has now gone 2,100 for 2,101 (99.952% reliable), and has functioned 100% flawlessly since investing $46 in upgrading the stock 17# RSA and the stock mag springs in my two original magazines back in late May 2022. I've never experienced an uncommanded / unwanted magazine drop.
This is a very reliable, very ergonomic, very easy pistol to shoot well.
Good things! 👍
How’s the trigger feeling? Heavy than a usual 10mm pistol?
@@SameLif3
These days my Timney Alpha trigger pull-weight consistently reads at about 4.5 pounds, which is about 8 ~ 12 ounces lighter than when new in May 2022 with the OEM stock trigger.
@@jpg_sig10I’ll be getting the m&p 10mm 5.6 version than. Supposedly more accurate as well
Howdy, Mr. Good Things! :) I recognize your comments elsewhere by that phrase. I am only up to 590 total count on mine and I replaced the RSA (24#) and mag springs out of the gate, based on reading about others' experiences. Still had mag drops with heavy hardcasts. It has nothing to do with springs and everything to do with mag geometry. I could see it not manifesting on every gun due to tolerances. Anywho, I found that loading 10 Xtreme Penetrators topped with 5 hardcasts works for me. Ran just shy of 300 rounds with this "hybrid loading" with no issues. Mag catch window is right around where the 5th round sits and that's where the thick bullet causes the uncommanded mag drop. Have you found replacement night sights (irons)? How about holsters? P.S. RSA and mag spring upgrades are still highly recommended, IMHO. The 24# RSA runs all power levels just fine and reduces felt recoil and frame wear. And the stock magazine springs have bad "memory" and do cause some stoppages for some people. Cheap and easy enough to replace.
The most reliable thing about Hickok is his accuracy. It shows you the true potential of the firearm itself used in the right hands.
I like the guys screaming and cheering in the background after you fire off the first mag lol
Just picked one of these up this week. Fantastic pistol! Fits in my 2.0 4” holsters. Have shot 3 different factory loads and two of my reloads through it - zero issues. Put my RITON red dot on it and it is a tack driver. For some reason the factory sights shot about 12” low? Using the red dot’s notch which leaves only the tips of the rear sight visible, they work as backups.
Bought one of these a few months ago, I absolutely love it. My favorite gun in my new favorite caliber.
Greetings from the rainy deserts of Arizona!
I have the M&P M2.0 in 40S&W and I've always liked the way this pistol shoots and holds, that slim handle is great for me, and I've been wondering about that new M&P 10mm.
Now that I seen this video I think I will pick 1 up!
Thanks guys!
Don’t know what part of az you’re in but Murphy’s in Tucson has a 4” in stock. The price was 6something
I picked mine up yesterday. I am scared to experience the issues a lot of people have and build distrust in the pistol. I ordered a Galloway precision 22lb recoil spring and springer precision mag springs. I’m going to install them and polish my feed ramp before I ever shoot the thing because I need 99% reliability or it will sit in the safe. The only thing I haven’t found a mitigation for is the mag drops. The mag catch is very small and some types of ammo will actually fill the hole in the mag that the catch slides in. I think this is what causes that issue. I suppose don’t use longer rounds if it causes the issue.
I've had my M&P 10mm M2.0 4.6" pistol since May 2022, and fired 1,620 rounds of 10mm Auto ammo through it. To date, I've experienced just 1 malfunction of any kind, a FTF, while shooting Underwood Ammo 10mm Auto 200 Gr FN HCL.
Never a magazine drop or any other issue.
I've run over 620 rounds of Underwood 10mm Auto ammo through it, including about 160 rounds of their:
- 200 Gr Hornady XTP JHP
- 200 Gr FN HCL (1 FTF)
- 220 Gr FN HCL
After my first range day in May 2022, I replaced the weak stock 17-pound (17#) RSA and magazine springs with a Wolff Gunsprings solid stainless steel guide rod and uncaptured 24# recoil spring, and longer stronger 11-coil magazine springs from Springer Precision.
The result - 100% flawless function.
Just a couple of weeks ago, I tried out Galloway Precision's 22# and 24# RSAs. Both fit and worked perfectly. I ran a lot of different 10mm Auto ammo with them, from weak Steinel Ammo 180 Gr FN FMJ (519 FtLbs ME) to Underwood 220 Gr FN HCL (704 FtLbs ME) to Underwood 155 Gr Hornady XTP JHP (774 FtLbs ME). No flaws, no worries, very nice dampening.
I'd say Galloway's 24# RSA performed just like Wolff's guide rod and uncaptured 24# recoil spring, but with the added convenience of being a fully captured assembly.
I've never used the M&P stock 17# RSA again, since that first range outing in May 2022.
I always clean and lubricate my guns every time I use them.
Good things! 👍
I know it's a year later, but in case you're still interested. Polishing the feed ramp has nothing to do with any of the issues and the barrel, and the feed ramp are plenty smooth to begin with. It's just something Smith tells customers when they return malfunctioning guns - "polished the feed ramp". The mag drop issue is caused not by longer rounds but rather by thicker bullets (wide meplat), such as the heavy hardcasts. It doesn't seem to occur with every gun, probably due to tolerance variations, but if it does occur, it can't be fixed except by a better magazine (which doesn't exist yet). I don't think this should happen with hollow points or any other rounder bullets, since you already upgraded your RSA and mag springs. I went with a 24# RSA from Galloway and it runs everything. The workaround I found is to load 10 Xtreme Penetrators topped with 5 hardcasts (+1). Tested about 290 rounds this way with no issues. Previously mag dropped with full mags of hardcasts. I hope this helps. There are a couple of writeups online showing exactly how this works, I think you are aware of them. The conclusion is that the gun is about perfect, once tuned with the adequate springs, but the magazines are flawed.
@@languagesource355 thanks for taking the time to write that up! It’s always nice to get tips and tricks.
I did all of the things I said above and have not had a single malfunction or mag drop since I got the pistol *knock on wood*. Granted, I only have about 200 rounds of blazer fmj and about 100 rounds of Sig Sauer vcrown hp through it.
At the moment living in the SouthEastern US, I don’t have any wildlife that would need hard cast rounds, so I haven’t tried any of those high powered rounds.
❤ the M&P grip. It was the reason i bought the S&W.

I bought a Shield Plus PC 4" ported barrel which also shoots high. Kept missing the target which forced me to put Holosun 507C red dot on to correct the misalignment. I'm with Hickok45 in that I prefer iron sights.
Thank you for the honest take on the gun. I just ordered mine today 😁
Great video. Can't wait till you get a chance for the Sig X-ten.
I would never want to get in a gun fight with Hickok45. OG can shoot!
I have a Glock 40, which is great. But unholstering it is like pulling out Excalibur. S&W throws the kitchen sink at this gun. Excellent grip (w/ changeable backstraps), pic rail, optics cut, suppressor/optics height sights, great trigger. Co-witnesses with a Holosun 507C perfectly. 15+1 of 10mm that I can easily conceal appendix. I stripped an optics plate screw as it seemed to be almost welded to the slide. S&W had me send it back no questions asked.
It also helps that it shoots great as well...
Yea...one thing bout hickok...he a wonderful human being part of a job well done by nature....his wife of course.....im down in tennesee alot now unc....not very many folk around like u...
3:32 that’s so crazy how you can see the bullet travel in real time! Great camera work (and obviously shooting)!
After having a G20 all these years, I’d like to try an M&P 40. Great shooting as always!
They are beautiful
I’m so glad you uploaded this on my birthday these is one of my dream guns
Great video to see, I was on the fence about this one but not anymore - always watch the man to help me decide 👍
Ha, that pun at the end that John made was pretty good.
Right... Lol
0:36 Some guy's voice in the background 😂
Lmao! Sounded like he caught a stray…
Such an amazing shooter, it’s not even fair 😂
You nailed it. I love the thin grips, mostly because every handgun I own gets carried concealed.
Just picked up the 4" model of this. Haven't shot it yet. Looking forward to it. Love Hickok's videos. Been a fan for years now. My backyard is pretty good, but I want THIS yard.
I love mine! Been waiting for this review since I saw it on the Sunday shoot around a while back.
Just got one of these myself recently, love it
I pick mine up tomorrow, 👍🏾
Hey hickok45 I really love muzzleload hunting. Good times a long time ago. ALSO I always wanted a colt python when Hal Holbrook pulled his out and said the only way your going anywhere is in a rubber bag!! CLASSIC
Glock seems fairly tone deaf when it comes to making changes customers want, but they have a great opportunity to answer all the new 10mm's coming out from the competition by updating the G20 to a GEN5. Sig puts the burden of R&D and testing on its customers. The Sig P320 Xten might be a great gun three or four years down the road, but for now it's a FTF nightmare. The Smith seems to be a pretty decent gun. The G20 still seems to be the standard.
Don’t disagree on sig beta testing on customers. But really all they need to upgrade is the magazines. Either they are designed poorly or the manufacturer is messing them up.
That round trace on the gong! Wow that was cool.
I wish I was 1/8 the shot Hickok is. The man barely misses these small targets
