Maybe it's just me, but when someone starts bringing up children playing cops and robbers as a favorable model for combat pistol techniques, I lose interest in anything that person has to say from then on.
I think it might just be you, maybe you misinterpreted what he was trying to convey.
It does not mean it is incapacitating in nature, it means the perp has a tendancy to drop what they are holding and clutch the wound. That seems like a good thing if it happens as when someone drops what they are holding, and it happens to be a gun, the gun is out of the equation, at least temporarily.
Thats great and all, unless of course they don't actually know they have been shot in the stomach. Which is going to be the case in 100 percent of PCP related shootings, and the majority of determined jihadist/druggies will not notice or care that they've been shot in the stomach.
My philosophy now is that the key to one shot stops on non drugged up people is to use the biggest and scariest looking gun you can, with the loudest report and the hugest flash.
The cons are: you can't use it at night, in a car, or inside a building, you cannot hear after you fire a single shot, and its shock effects will be negated against a drugged or determined foe. And its classified as an assault revolver in California.
