The P32 as a 100 meter gun?

Well, my IZH-46M is a 50 meter gun - groups very well at that distance. :) That's five times past its design of 10 meter competition. 100 meters is about 10 times past what most folks would consider the design of the weapon - but about 5 times past where I'd normally think of using one.
The P32 has worse sights but better energy and penetration. Folks scoff at pistols for distance because they've never given them a decent chance.
Those Swiss, first shooting apples off heads w/ cross bows..

Now, turning mouse guns into 100 meter self defense pieces...

'50/50' reduces the problem to chance

In which case, any gun is 'capable' up to its maximum range, including the KelTec.
Personally, I'd be shooting for better odds.

Yeah, those Swiss...they hardly know a thing about shooting!

Good thing they said 'meters', not 'yards'...
*THAT* would be a long shot.

'50/50' is pretty far from chance

50/50 is chance when flipping coins because there are only 2 possibilities. 50/50 with that little thing with those 'suggestions' of sights at 100 yards on a B27 or whatever is good shooting. Very good.
I do agree however that I would want more punch and better accuracy before I would call a handgun a 100 meter weapon. On the other hand I certainly do not want one of those Swiss range rats plinking at me with his P32. No thanks.
