This guy could have done it.

I've never tried 100 yards with a handgun. Very little work beyond 25 yards until recently but in the last couple of months have been shooting out to 50 yards wtih my carry guns. Glocks mostly. I've done better than expected at 50 but for now at 100 I just hope I could make someone keep their heads down and hopefully go away.

For what ever reason I didn't shoot my G26 well, nor the G43 I used to have. The G19 and larger guns shoot great for me. Maybe it was just those individual guns, but I shoot my Ruger LC9s MUCH better than the G26 or G43. Even at 25-50 yards.
