Your proving my point It that was not your kid, I will stand by my bet that you LOSE !.

LOVE THIS !. If any of those reading this are of the opinion they can "clear their house". I TRIPLE DOG DARE YOU to find your one wacko friend . Then arm him and tell him he wins 100.00 dollars if he can shoot you [ water pistol or paintball/airsoft gun ] before you do the same to him. I...

You make nice points. But my take is that = born in NYC and lived there for 25 years. Went armed at all times as an adult [ over 19 ]. NEEDED to be armed more than once [ and lived in my Dojo 6 days a week too ]. Now a retired cop and see that there are NO "SAFE SPACES" when you see gun free...

Retired almost 17 years [ yea,strange to even pen that ]. I have shot and handled many RMR/red dots and yes they are amazing. But I see no advantage at true danger close S/D shootings. At that range I will not be using the sights as I see no reason to waste the time to bring the gun up to eye...

My answer came up after many decades on this rock. My answer is " do you own a hammer,a fire extinguisher, a spare tire, a knife. They are very likely to answer yes to most of those questions. I then point out that they are all a tool of some form or another and each does its own job very...

I have no idea why your looking at 2 VERY different firearms as to uses. Are you hunting or just for S/D ?. Having owned both [ past tense ] I see little reason to buy the Uzi. Unless its your sole S/D firearm The 45-70 is a very decent short range gun for most any thing you will encounter...

I get where you were going. But my "old school" is from my age [ 76 ] and experience, so I go with any of my lever guns [ the OG assault rifle ] and ANY shotgun in almost any bore. I have a S&W model 10hb that I went through the police academy with,and then patrol for 5 years . I will bet my...

I am asking if you really meant this ----------- or is this more April fools day stuff ?.

...me ". I see and agree with all your comments,the ONLY issue is you need to have been an LEO with real street time. Or one with LOTS of streets cred's from the streets. If you get the training , you will also have that skill and ability. Keep watching your '6' and always remember its your 1*.

For what its worth,I was a defensive tactics instructor for the Niagara County Law Enforcement Academy for approx 22 years. I also did a bit as a firearms instructor. My take away was I was not trained enough so I took additional classes out of the departments stuff. It was very hands on and...

And no where in the past few DECADES have I noticed ANY "politician" even attempt to make the USE of any weapon a further crime. Exactly the opposite in fact, use a weapon and get an appearence ticket ?? SO ------ its not the gun its the CRIMINAL,as we all can readily see. Now what !

As I have seen and learned from experience. The act of aiming or pointing a gun at a threat,does NOTHING in many cases to STOP the threat. Too many YES including police get into the rut that just pointing that "talisman" at a threat will stop it cold. They learned that from the movies & TV...

FYI There was a video put out in the 1980's ------- yea that long ago. Surviving edged weapons. It stated VERY clearly that turning your back was THE WORST thing to do when attacked with a knife. It was a class given by "Street Survival" a group that made a ton of money BUT did not teach you...

IF you learned from all the mistakes. AND you never commit any of them EVER again = good on ya. Otherwise,your a Darwin award away from ------------- you know !.

I left in 2006 due to LOD stuff. But by that time we had done many drills about active shooters. By that time it was your DUTY to enter when you arrived and stop the shooter = PERIOD. This made me sick to my stomach.

WHAT the Hell ? I was a cop and I ran toward gunfire more times than I can remember. That was disgusting = as simple as I can say it. ACTIVE SHOOTER, the 2 officers should be fired asap..

I have seen and heard far too many who tell me they have a baseball bat/golfclub/knife to defend IF they ever hear the glass break or door kicked in at 'O' dark 30. I am sad for them , they dont see that the PROPER TOOL for any job already exists. Do not use a hammer to fix a flat tire. And...

You made me ask you the question. What venue is so important that you are willing to risk great bodily harm that could be avoided ?. My true answer to your question is "not allowed" on here,where normal men would normally answer such. But I will avoid any place that I do not NEED to be [...

From one who does not reload,so a real world answer. First I would get at least one Ruger Security 6,prefer 4" barrel and stainless [ but I own a blue model that is just fine ]. Then a lever gun in 30-30 as I own 4 and love that American caliber. A 12 gauge shotgun that loves slugs,like the...

I did not get that he figured you were car thieves until I read the later post of him seeing you run from the car. I am surprised that it was towed on nothing but 2 youths running from it. It would take an act of Congress for us to tow under any circumstances [ became an LEO 1982 ]. And as...
