Yep. Try to fire along your exact center of gravity in order to avoid flipping 
around. Near-impossible with a rifle.

Should be able to fire the weapon exactly at the spot you want to hit, 
providing any lead time for moving targets. Probably easier with a weapon 
without sights, since it can be aimed right along the top of the weapon, 
generally.

Again, probably easier with a pistol.

"As I look back, I see that it had been a mistake to send the letter. If you look far enough back, you will find that everything starts at some minor point. Something small becomes something very big. Something simple becomes complex. A brief moment of time becomes the focus of a tragedy. The letter was the minor point - something of no consequence that became the start of something of... importance." - Paul Thorgrimson, 'River of Blood, Path to Ruin,' October 2001
