While I feel like covid probably had some effects on some people after the fact. Seems like "long covid" is a cop out for some doctors unfortunately. At least it was in my wife's case when they didn't want to dig any deeper into some problems she was having in 2021. The 4th doctor figured it...
Maybe you have more than covid. Kids and wife had some sort of virus (I don't remember which one it was but it wasn't covid) this past winter. They had the worst cough I've ever witnessed for 6 to 8 weeks. Probably 10 or 12 weeks until it was completely gone. Couple hospital trips. It was brutal.
Missed that in the first post. I would imagine having one in the pipe while standing lined up in the wide open I'd me damn sure making it count vs having 30 in the mag. Hard to make it a fair comparison. Not a situation you or I could probably fully grasp anyhow.
You think it has anything to do with firing lines at x amount of feet back in the day? as well as well as how far field medics have come? I'm just spit balling.
