Talk:Lucky McDaniel

Changes needed
I don't like to be too critical but this article is in terrible shape. It is far too long and is not formatted at all, few wikilinks for example. I also question the exact notability. He did a lot of stuff but a lot of this article is just fluff. It needs to be reduced and sectioned. --Tainter 13:33, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Lucky McDaniel
New wikipedia member but not new to the study and research of Lucky McDaniel. I've studied both of McDaniel's books cited in the article. The benefit to me of this article has been to fill in the backround of those books and the insight into how the process works. I found the wiki-links used to be of great use.

Don't shorten the article, organise it perhaps
It's the little pieces of information that makes it interesting. By the way, what model Daisy was he using? The Red Ryder? M99 I agree on not shortening the article. I was trained in the Army in Quick Kill and then trained a battalion on its way to Vietnam. Directly as a result of this training we always got the first shot off in all or at least almost all engagements. Simply stated because of the training we could acquire a target and shoot before they could. Because of the detail in the article a person, even one not familiar with weapons, can understand the purpose and effectiveness of the technique being taught. The guy was brilliant. His idea is genius. Perhaps genius on a small plate, but genius nonetheless. To answer the question, he used a specially designed lower power air rifle that Daisey made for him and for the US Army. We traveled on a boat to Vietnam and devoted one room on the boat to quick kill practice all the way to Vietnam. Unless you have been to war you have no idea how helpful that was. 87.59.77.204 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 22:05, 12 April 2009 (UTC).
