No reason to sigh! That's a reasonable, moral and totally down to earth attitude about potentially taking someone's life in a defensive shooting. Certain 'words of wisdom' and olde-timey axioms of the 'gun culture' fascinate me. I have several hot buttons about different subjects and this is...
If you were charged with murder by some anti-gun prosecutor after a defensive shooting, which of the following two statements you could have made would you like the jury to take back to the deliberation room:
1. "I thought he was going to kill me, so I was forced to fire my gun to stop the...
All except the "shoot to kill" makes good sense. Defensive shooting is shooting to end the deadly force threat to yourself or others -full stop. You do that most effectively by shooting to the center of body mass or the central nervous system. That shooting those areas may cause the person to...
I'm fine with restoring a felon's 2nd Amendment Rights if the crime was non-violent and they have completed their sentence or probation and are off of parole. Jelly Roll should absolutely not have his rights restored until he is off parole, which is a period of post incarceration supervision to...
All the Best for a Happy Thanksgiving to the folks here and their friends & families! Enjoy your times together as well as copious amounts of delicious food!🦃
I'm sure glad you guys aren't adverse to correcting terminology! I'll insure I do a better job of proof reading so I don't feel decimated after reading about my errors. I learn things everyday and I know all responses to posts aren't going to be complimentary! 🧐
That's good stuff. Another thing I bring up to new shooters is the 'master grip" which is determined by drawing the (verified unloaded) gun slowly with eyes closed and bringing it up onto target. If the sights are not aligned horizontally, use your off hand to rotate the gun in your master hand...
One of my first jobs was selling "Rainbow" vacuums! Sold a total of 3 before I went off to LE college and into my career. I've owned several and continue to be amazed at what they pull out of people's carpets. :sick:
Welcome to the forum from Southern Colorado! Nashville's a great place and lots of opportunity for competition. My Son lives out there so I usually fly out twice a year. He does USPSA and Steel Challenge fairly regularly.
My longest carried 1911 was a LW Commander from the late 60's that was stock except for some King sights and Pachmeyr grips. An armorer polished the ramp and it fed duty ammo fine. Carried that until the frame cracked around the slide release pin. Every other 1911 I have is customized. Two...
My jaw actually kind of dropped when I saw the videographer standing downrange and just slowly starting to move as they start dropping rounds into the U-Haul. Guy has ZipZapZero situational awareness.
Two Audible books by Pavel Tsatsouline a long time advocate for kettlebell workouts. Kettlebell Simple & Sinister: Revised & Updated Edition and The Quick & The Dead. He has tons of good information, I'm having to listen at a reduced speed to really get the most out of what he is saying.
