<CHOP> You CAN do it.
Its actually quite simple. You dodge the GUN not the bullet.
The Bullet is moving at Mach+ or so, but the gun moves with the
users reflexes. Also, remember if you can move in close low and
fast, the gun is a real liability to the user.
<CHOP>
Anyway, SR is cinematic/generic. Dodging just makes it less
likely you'll be hurt bad (SR1 dodge pool)
Watch A John Woo film. Thats how to run SR gunfights.

<CHOP>Shows your streetfighting knowledge
On a RANGE, with Optimum conditions, TRUE
In realistic conditions, NO way
NYPD figures show that gunfights are usually at less than 5m,
involve blazing away and not hitting much.
The practical combat range of a handgun is about 5m anyway
