As a matter of interest, would anyone in a hurry try to aim a shot at 7 yards or less?
A well practised shooter could put a magazine inside a 6in circle at that distance, without aiming (shooting instinctively) and in very quick time too.
I can do it myself, with a revolver, 6 plus 6 with a reload in between, in under 12 seconds. I have seen IPSC shooters do the same thing in half the time.
The point is 'don't waste time aiming at close range' be very familiar with your carry gun and shoot fast - if you are fussy, go for the head. Not many BG's have body armor on their heads.
I don't wan't to sound flippant,but there are 'real world' procedures and protocols designed to keep us alive when things turn bad. Aiming for a special part of the body isn't one of them.
