ORIGINAL: tazzygirl True. A dead man cant talk. It doesn't work that well, ask any firearms instructor. Theoretically, it is possible to make a immobilizing shot. However, you have to have time to aim, hope that your target does not move at the wrong time in the wrong direction. Aim for the knee cap and miss, you blew your chance. Hit the fleshy part of the thigh, he may slow down, but he aint gonna stop. Now, unofficially, during sniper training, we were not told to gut shoot a target in order to create a situation where he may scream and cause one of his buddies to try and rescue him, thus creating a situation to get two wounded enemy soldiers in the open screaming for help.
