Do when know, was it revealed what his pistol was & his ammo brand?
Multiple reports it was a Glock, but not what model or what ammo.

I hate it when the B27’s start shooting back with rifles though. It usually brings my score down a little. Still no problem though… lolY'all need to start shooting PPC. 50M shots are the norm. It's not that difficult with a bit of practice to keep them in the center of a B27.
We ran a stage at Speed Steel yesterday just to get an idea of the difficulty. The COF was 10 shots on a torso sized steel plate at 40 yards in 15 seconds, 8 out of 10 shots minimum to score, any less was a default 30 second time score. Most of our squad were able to accomplish this, we had a couple who only hit 7 out of 10. I would say the average time was around 10 seconds.
Our fastest time was a 10/10 run at 4.05 seconds, I personally ran 9/10 in 6.47 seconds.
This is obviously not the same as a food court full of people, an active shooter and I would imagine a massive adrenaline dump, but it was interesting to run anyway.
Props to the young man for his response to the situation

Reading comprehension is important, please read my last paragraph againWere you being shot at the the same time? No ear pro and people screaming, children crying, maybe stepping into your line of fire? Target moving, probably folding down to 1/3 size, possibly to take careful aim?
I understand it was 9 mm.
Check.
this reminds me of the period of time where CHAS range didn't have a pistol range and I practised pistol shots on the 50 m steel plates. Developed some very nice skills by being forced to shoot at ranges longer than average pistol range.
Now we have to practice pistol shots at 100m there.. I'm getting to a point when I can hit that steel every other time![]()

Kid deserves a medal is right.
The distance isn't the issue, until you factor in likely being shot at, and the risk of hitting bystanders.
I'm not aware of competitions that can replicate that.
Hitting a human sized target at 40 yards is not particularly difficult. I applaud the good guy with the gun as much as anyone else, but let’s not pretend he’s super human. The fact that these shots are actually quite easy is precisely why everyone should be armed without limitation.
