Jerry Miculek Sets Revolver, Pistol World Record

Jerry Miculek is without question one of the greatest shooters of all-time. For many, he’s the greatest to ever do it. A national and world champion in nearly every conceivable shooting discipline, the famed Smith & Wesson and Mossberg trigger puller is an absolute legend. So Jerry had his sights set on doing something completely original: break the Guinness Book of World Records time for running a plate rack. But Jerry being Jerry, he wanted to do it with a revolver.

“In the Untied States, everything is speed rated,” Miculek said. “Everybody wants to go faster, higher, or whatever. To me, racing a revolver or pistol just seemed to be a concept, but through the previous 30 years that I competed, no one has done a Guinness Record Book of Records attempt on a plate rack with a revolver. So that’s what I want to do; I want to establish a new revolver record.

In 2017, SIG Sauer’s Max Michel established the original Guinness Book of World Records performance on a plate rack with a semi-auto pistol. From the hands-up, surrender position, Michel came out of the holster and knocked down all six plates in a remarkable 2.05 seconds. Micuelk was able to eclipse this feat with a semi-auto and revolver, an incredible shooting accomplishment.

Miculek is arguably the greatest shooter of all-time. He’s won more than 20 ICORE revolver championships, to go along with USPSA, 3-Gun, IDPA and more. But to gear up for this challenge, he needed a specialized wheelgun. So he brought all the folks and Smith & Wesson onboard to dial in the gear for a historic run.

“All records are meant to be broken,” Miculek said. “Mine are up for grabs; everybody’s record is up for grabs.”
