Why doesn't the friend try it and find out? If there isn't any significant wind around, I guess it's possible.

how would this not be possible?
probably not at 1000 yards, but 100 yards yes, it is humanly possible.

with a pistol it's more difficult than you think I'm trying to find a video of a man shooting a balloon from 350 feet with a snub nose .38
most incredible shot I've ever seen

I've actually done that, I shot a coke bottle from 100yards, I did have a scope but it was just a circle-dot scope no magnification.

i dropped a deer at 80 yards with a 44.Magnum i had a scope but i still got the bastard.
and yes it is possible too hit a milk jug at 100 yards with a 9mm. Ive used a high point carbine and have done it but it has a much longer barrel, and makes it way more accurate, but it did hit it. dunno if i could do that with my beretta, maybe my s&w

personally i spent about 50 9mm rounds shooting at a milk jug full of water at about 30 feet (10 yards) and i missed every time except when i went up with the last 2 rounds and shot it point blank.
i have very little shooting expierence.
however, on that same trip, i hit a gatoride bottle at over 60 feet....
so yeah, its possible.... even likely if your a trained shooter with a good gun, and properly adjusted dights.

Not possible, unless you count luck. A shooter with a life time of experiance might hit it 1/1000 times.
I would compair said task to golf and hiting a hole in one. Sure, it happens, no one ever expects it tho.
I got shot at some time ago, and the asshole was less than 50 yards away accross a big street in a yard. ( b4 you ask its a dumb story ) the bastard could not hit me or my friend out in the open ( granted running for our lives :p) his first shot we were standing still. Two adult males are certainly larger than milk jugs.

A guy I shoot with hit a balloon we had set up at 200 metres (218 yards) with his 5th shot with a 9mm. This was from a Norinco NP22 (Chinese Sig 226 copy.) I've watched other guys set up a gong around the same distance and hit it 8 or 9 times out of 10 with an XD40. Gong was maybe twice the size of a dinner plate.
