I CAN AND HAVE provided proof that semiauto pistols do not cause the shooter to lose their inherent sense of trigger discipline and round management. I'm holding a loaded G19 at the range right now, and firing slow fire with one hand and typing this with the other.

The pistol isn't making me spray bullets without concern for connecting on target.

Proving exclusions is a lot easier than proving inclusions, in this case.

Pistols don't make people take bad shots. People who are prone to take bad shots may be more prone to use a pistol, but that's correlation, not causality.

I also asked you - knowing you HAVE been in military firefights using fully automatic weapons, AND knowing you are a shooter who holds a high trigger discipline and round management... Did carrying that autoloader FORCE you, the shooter pulling the trigger, to exhibit less target discipline?

My contention remains to be that an inanimate object cannot cause a shooter to lose their discipline.
