"OK Coral. OK Coral. There they lay side by side,

    The killers that died,

In the gunfight at OK Coral!"

[Caprock Kid]

There were probably 3 guys watching who called 10 misses and a procedural.

And said that Doc broke the 170.

They all get MDQ’s for pointing loaded guns at each other

If it had been CAS shooters, everyone would have lived. Sure, they would have needed to go to the doc to get the bullets pulled, kind of like splinters and that's if the bullets even penetrated the clothing. Knowing my luck, the time would have malfunctioned and a reshoot would be needed...everyone knows that a reshoot is the kiss of death.

My .38's would have done the job!

I think that mine would have also. There are some folks loads that wouldn't though.

Having knocked down several rifle, pistol, and shotgun targets that were   NOT intended to be knocked down, I suspect that my ammunition would be sufficient to penetrate any hide subjected to their impact!   
 

After receiving numerous complaints of obscured targets from shooters several places behind me in the queue, it’s not likely that my smoke would be subject to protest!

Probably the worst day of Wyatt Earp's life, but it's what defined him.

 

Not trying to hijack the thread (anymore than anyone else) but what would Wyatt be remembered for if the OK Corral had not happened?  Would he be remembered at all?

We never would have heard of him if it wasn't for Stuart N. Lake writing the book.

Probably would have been remembered as just another lawman in the Old West.

I think he did more good than bad.
