ACP,
How sure am I that my CCW (semi auto) is going to fire when I pull the trigger? Almost 100%, because I carry it with one in the pipe.
How sure am I that it will fire a second time? Not so sure because jams happen, and according to Mr. Murphy, the first jam from my CCW is liable to happen when I can least afford it.
So my mentality is that I've got ONE shot to solve my "problem."
Secondly, my best time between accurate shots is 0.3" with my DAO CCW. That's 3 seconds for 10 shots, and a charging BG can cover more than 20 feet in 2 seconds. I DON'T have time to walk shots if he's close enough to be considered "arm's length" away.
(BTW, I had a bit over 5,000 posts on TFL.)
But consider this:Good post. If shooting point blank, I imagine one could walk the shots up to the head/neck region. If a couple body shots put them in a defensive/protective position, it might not be TOO diffiult to unload the rest into the cranium -- esp. if they are within arms reach and already wounded.
BTW, I can't believe you have more than 600 posts in less than 10 days. What was your TFL total??
