Ok then, That is interesting I will look into it when time allows.

Obviously, but again this isn’t always possible.

Since you seem to have missed it: I mean surely you don’t think idiot hotheads can be fully avoided do you?

Being as the other person can escalate own their own, I think this is impossible. Maybe I’m misunderstanding. I’m reminded of a time when I was in my early twenties a guy in his 40’s looked at me and accused me of checking out his female companion. I calmly explained I had not, to which he...

I recently acquired a Sharps Pepperbox. 22 with 4 barrels (see avatar) it needs a hammer spring to fire the CB shorts, one day I’ll find something to use as a hammer spring.

A big Thank You! for that. I had looked and not found much, maybe a few short videos that weren’t super helpful. I really do believe the ball is being dropped in this realm, imo de-escalation should be a much more talked about topic. Though admittedly a difficult one as the other persons...

My dad bought one in a pawn shop back in the 70’s, drilled and tapped it for a scope. I eventually ask him for it when I was a teenager. He told me to just make sure the deer were close as it wasn’t very accurate. I put a decent Leopold on it and it proceeded to shoot a 5 five shot group I...

Yeah, a bit of hyperbole I suppose. I’ve just been watching a lot of interrogations, and true crime, and court TV type of stuff and a LOT of those cases look like they could likely have been avoided if someone would have just calmed down and took an insult and moved on with life. The road rage...

You know, that’s probably an understatement. Hadn’t crossed my mind, but I think you’re own to something.

I recently heard someone refer to “the ladder of escalation…..you take a step and I take a step, we’ll get to the top” and I got what he meant. It’s difficult for one person to escalate a situation when the other person is making intentional efforts not to escalate. It seems to me one of the...

I have yet to carry anything iwb for over about a week before I decided it was so uncomfortable I’d try something else. Oddly my 1911 was probably the least uncomfortable while also being the largest.

Well, right off the top of my head…. A: reduce recoil 2: reduced noise levels C: ammo price D: already have ammo stockpiles 5: already reload for the caliber 6: magazine interchangeability G: suppressor sharing 8: Fun/enjoyment I think the obvious and major fault in the op’s thinking is...

I’ll recommend the sticky, I haven’t read it since it was active but I do remember it being full of good information. It’d be worth the read. https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?threads/pepper-spray-the-truth.768705/

There are certainly more options available than I thought there were. How do you all like the rechargeable batteries. I can so see my wife never charging it and losing the charger.

That’s very good! Everyone here should watch it.

While I don’t think it’s fair to essentially make an argument that the gun influences the mindset, it’s probably true the majority of the time. But like I said, that’s not a fair argument. A discussion about the weapon, should stay about the weapon imo. I’ve never thought of the travel...

Thanks for the suggestions, I will definitely be looking into them. I’m not sure if I like the rechargeable option or not, I’ll have to talk to her about that one and put some thought into it. Also I know you guys are right about the gun/light mindset, i just know her. I’ve been over much of...

I’ll sure give it a look Thank You! No It’s strictly a home gun. I recently worked a lot of graveyard shifts and I think she’s wanting a gun attached to her flashlight more than anything.

The wife has a Ruger security 380 (bedside gun) and has decided she wants a light on it. And that thing has a very short rail on it, I’m not much of a weapon light guy so I’m fairly unfamiliar with them, I have one and it’s just sitting in my safe, it’s a Streamlight with a green laser, I did...

I don’t think that’s always true. From what I understand around here every lawyer in the county is given cases by the court, as well as paid by them so you just get who you get when it’s court appointed. I know a man that went and met with the court appointed lawyer when his granddaughter got...
