How could they miss four out of nine shots at point blank distance? Is this why they used such overkill to get Sonny, or was that just FFC's homage to Bonnie and Clyde?

Hey! Maybe they were afraid that Fredo would shoot them! whistle

Seriously though, lets not forget that even though he basically was being shot at at point blank range.....he was still a moving target. Looks like five of the last six shots hit him when he was against the car and stopped moving.






Don Cardi cool

Five - ten years from now, they're gonna wish there was American Cosa Nostra. Five - ten years from now, they're gonna miss John Gotti.
