Barack Obama, in his address to the press this afternoon following the school shooting in Connecticut, said that his first reaction was of that of a father and that “we’ve endured too many of these tragedies in the past few years.” After delivering a tear-filled speech the president hinted to the possibility of enacting new gun control measures, and I quote, “regardless of the politics.” What exactly he means by this is unclear, but rest assured that we will be seeing more gun control measures introduced in the near future.
You need 10 minimum rounds, considering you are not going to connect with all your shots on a moving target. The member who said he will only shoot when he is sure he will hit the target, has not been in a gunfight. You will miss at least 30% of your shots, “no matter how good you are”. When you have several people or animals moving at high speed in different directions, it’s a lot different than when you are shooting targets that aren’t shooting back.
I carry at least a Pm9 with 8 rounds, 7+1, and 2 extra mags, and that is just around the home area, If I am heading out, I grab a second gun, usually a XDS with the 7 rounder. It’s hard to hit 2 or 3 targets without missing or getting shot. Before they break off.
Normally I would take a glock 26 with the +2 in it, and 1 extra mag. Last thing you want to do is run out of ammo, you would feel very foolish to say the least.
