Citations needed for double tap body trauma

For what? It seems like common sense that two bullet holes in your chest will hurt. If you need citation for this fact, feel free to demonstrate the wound on yourself for verification.

Remove the Firearms Stub template

This article fully explains the concept of double-tapping, so why is it still a stub? -- Asdquefty 21:00, 13 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

i agree with the above person, and as apparently nothing has happened since 2005, I have removed the template - 71.144.87.83 20:17, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

movie

perhaps a mention of this movie (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0258489/), in which double tap is featured prominently, is motivated?

Double tap really either needs a disambiguation page or a line at the top of each article referring to the other since both Double tap and Double Tap are articles. It would be difficult for a person searching within wikipedia to determine how to get from one article to the other. In view of this I'm going to add a line to each one. Hopefully someone who knows how to do the disambiguation page will add it. 04:47, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

References?

No references here at all, and some of the information is highly questionable. The technique of two rapid shots to the same point of aim (which is the essence of a double tap) was taught by Applegate, so my guess is that it dates back to at least the 1930s, to Fairbairn's time in the Shanghai police. The article should also mention "the hammer" and "controlled pairs", which are other names for/variations on the same theme. (see here and here for discussions on the technique(s)). —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Fluzwup (talk • contribs) 19:56, 16 March 2007 (UTC).[reply]

It is not impossible that DT was picked up by Beckwith from when he served with the S.A.S. whose history is rather illustrious and experience is built upon best practices from all armed forces and enemies they may encounter. Lindus 20:01, 30 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
