First Rule of a Gunfight...

[Henry Bowman]

...or Use Enough Gun.

I believe it's the Marines who say, "If you find yourself in a fair fight, then you were not adequately prepared."

 

[Sylvan-Forge]

I always thought it was:

1) Bring a long gun.
2) Bring a dozen friends with long guns.

 

[frayluisfan]

I thought the first rule was to always cheat.

[Chipperman]

That cartoon is funny and sad all at the same time.


Gun Fight Rules:
1. Don't get into one
2. If you have to get into one, bring a gun
3. Bring a bigger gun
4. Cheat

Remember, one slow hit is better then 500 quick misses. "It ain't the noise what kills 'em!!!!"

 

[tellner]

I quote the wisdom of the late Hugh Bollers:

If you need a gun, carry two and a big knife. If you don't need a gun at least carry a .25 automatic. And if you need a gun to go into that bar, don't go into that bar.

 

[Limeyfellow]

Get an act of congress and send an army to do the fighting for you. Make profit.

 

[Korimyr the Rat]

Remember, one slow hit is better then 500 quick misses. "It ain't the noise what kills 'em!!!!"

Throws the aim off for most folk, though. "Get a shot off fast; it'll give you the time to make your second shot good."

Best kind of fight is still the kind the other guy don't know he's in until it's over.

Think Tellner's quote has some wisdom, too.

No, the FIRST rule of gunfighting is: Have a gun.

 

[1911Tuner]

Rules

1...Have a gun.
2...Anybody who needs to be shot, needs to be shot repeatedly.
3...When your adversary is within range, so are you.
4...Murphy is everywhere.
5...Friendly fire, ain't.
6...The fastest draw is having the gun in hand when the fight starts.
7...The longer it takes to stop the fight, the more shot you get.
8...Forget the "X" ring. Hit him hard, and hit him before it's too late.

An interesting quote:

>Throws the aim off for most folk, though. "Get a shot off fast; it'll give you the time to make your second shot good."<<
**************

That may well work with most people, but there really are some who will stand
stock-still, take dead aim and squeeze while you're burnin' ammo tryin' to rattle'em...and some of'em are the bad guys. You can hope...but better not count on it.

Tuner,
Agree.

One other
"Shoot what is available"

I still like the Cartoon.

Rates up there with the dog using the computer and on the Internet telling the other dog " On the Internet they don't know you are a dog".

The final rule: The one who is #1 standing, #2 not bleeding too much, and #3 breathing, WINS.






#1 is optional
