The Incredibles teaches us that monologuing — ranting at your vanquished enemy before administering the coup de grace — is a bad idea. The sign above makes the same point. Instead of plugging his assailant(s), the Austin tavern keeper fired a warning shot and issued a verbal challenge. All very Hollywood and perhaps apocryphal, but really stupid . . .
Always remember: speed, surprise and violence of action is the best strategy to win a gunfight or, for that matter, any sort of fight. If you’re going to attack, go all in with as much violence as humanly possible.
You can’t learn or practice that strategy — what’s often called the “combat mindset” — at a square range. Loading your gun and shooting at a target ain’t it.
I can’t recommend force-on-force training highly (or often) enough. At the same time, I’m down with any firearms training course where the instructor or instructors do their level best to get your adrenalin flowing.
The Israeli self-defense system known as Krav Maga is based entirely on speed, surprise and violence of action. Even a single lesson (usually free) can give you valuable insight into what you need to survive a violent encounter, gun or no gun.
Meanwhile, for safety’s sake, realize that there comes a time when your words are meaningless. A danger to your survival, in fact. Delaying you from doing what needs to be done, giving your assailant precious time to gain the action advantage (action beats reaction).
Bottom line: no warning shots, ballistic or spoken.
friends don’t link to auto play!
“Stay tuned?”
Screw that, I’m gonna go buy one. Or two.
Despite their stupid gun laws, when they do go full sanctuary state, the wall MUST include CA.
Get out while you can!
Bigfoot all the way. Amazing belt.
And no capes.
Turns out kid called 911 on himself and left 3 suicide notes according to news accounts. Father says he had mental issues after coming out as gender binary (neutral). Also attempted suicide previously. Definitely suicide by cop.
If parents can initiate an investigation and sue the police, why shouldn’t the police and society investigate and sue the parents for burdening the rest of society with their moronic offspring?
No reason to shoot. Just wait for him to get tired and sit down.
Would have taken far less time than the aftermath of a police shooting….
I understand that some 40 percent of transgenders commit suicide. This is clearly suicide by cop and it sucks for the cop even more than for the parents, because the cop didn’t ask for this. The parents should have gotten this kid help.
“, no reason exists to believe that law-abiding gun owners will somehow not be law-abiding just because they are carrying in a state such as New Jersey.”
Well, maybe. Look how just living there F’s up their citizenry, and ESPECIALLY the MF tyrannical POS (D) politicians.
Bulldoze that sh_t into the Atlantic before Maria comes up the coast.
$1,250? Hopefully Remington’s quality is back in their rifles.
While i like the stock ,i paid less for 2 savage model 10’s, a 10t and a 10fcp-sr.
Both shoot half inch groups for half the price, both have 5R rifling, and both are magazine fed.
