Thank you for your response old curmudgeon.

Would appreciate a link/s to some of those other old books and photos if available.

Walter J. Dorfner SSgtVSP, the long time lead firearms instructor for the Vermont SP, experimented with and wrote a paper on his experience with P&S when he was Vice Chair of the Use of Force Committee of the Vermont Criminal Justice Training Council, at the Vermont Police Academy in Pittsford, VT. Walter died in 2001.

He thought P&S would be the next step in the evolution of survival shooting.

I made a digest of it, which he approved of, and we both had it published in Police publications.

The digest gives a detailed description of what AIMED Point Shooting or P&S is, how and why it works, and it gives his experience with it.

Though the shooting method is not new, it is not widely known or accepted in the gun community as a survival shooting method.

The shooting method was not taught at the academy. However, it was presented by Walter to new VSP members.

Walter used the term Point Shooting in his paper to identify the method of shooting. I have taken the liberty to add the word AIMED in front of it, as the method employs the index finger to aim the gun, which is more than just Point Shooting. Point Shooting is normally understood to be shooting sans sights, or unaimed shooting.
