- NRA Museums Senior Curator Phil Schreier returns to Curator's Corner with a bang! He's brought two of exhibition shooter Ed McGivern's "Fast and Fancy" revolvers: a Smith & Wesson Double Action .38 Police Target Model and a Colt Single Action Army .38 Special. McGivern was considered to be the best handgun shooter of all time, could perform more than 160 trick shots and earned a spot in the Guinness Book of World Records for the greatest rapid-fire feat. He taught defensive gun use to law enforcement, and authored the book, Fast and Fancy Revolver Shooting. See both firearms on display at the NRA National Firearms Museum in Fairfax, Virginia.
Phil! I know you were using self deprecating Humer when you said you still "might make something of yourself."
But those that know you. Know you are A Priceless Keeper of History. You are Extremely Knowledgeable of our History. And you are a Very Decent Man.
Best Wishes from Montana! Mike Hagan.
Walter and Winnifred Groff were my Uncle & Aunt. My grandfather Russel Whitmore is shown in the book Fast and Fancy Revolver Shooting.
He done it, to prove the old timers stories was true. No-one believed it. So he showed em.
I got his book fast and fancy shooting and it been years since I’ve read it but I got a kick out of the title of one chapter if I remember right he named it the the best way to spray lead from a single action colt
Ed McGivern just got you guys another sub, great knowledge. Thank you ^.^
I couldn't hear it very well. But still enjoyed it. Please up the volume!! Rich
600 rounds per minute is pretty fast for a DA revolver.
Five shots in 0.45 seconds half dollar would cover the 5. Pick a fight with any of these guys your toast.
always thought is was cool that I am a direct relative of him.
It was his surname that brought me here, as one of the clan from the old country.😎
GREAT VIDEO !!!
Does it have sound?
