My two cents, so flame away!
No flames from me, very good point. And as many of you have stated, train, train, train, which is the fun part On averege, I like to put a few hundred down range a month with my carry gun.
My two cents, so flame away!
weather I carry my 1911 or (don't have a glock so for arguements sake)my 1076 or HK P7PSP I sweep the safety off on my draw.It will be damned embarassing to die trying to pull the trigger on a cocked and locked 1911 because you thought you had your Glock that day.
You have to list your guns on your carry permit?
I have said this before and have been flamed, but I will say it again.
If you carry a gun for serious purposes, and not just to feel like some kind of a big macho hero, you better carry ONE gun, or at least one type of gun.
It will be damned embarassing to die trying to pull the trigger on a cocked and locked 1911 because you thought you had your Glock that day.

Those guys may be very nice folks, with good intentions, but I still think those are the attitudes of a gun hobbyist, not of someone in real and imminent danger.
Everything has the potential to break, usually when it is most inconvenient. Everything wears out eventually.If your gun works, you don't need a backup, a replacement and two or three other guns hanging around. I don't carry guns that don't work.
Yea, I'd agree. I've gone for months of exclusively shooting revolvers, but when I finally bring a 1911 out, I still flick off the safety without even thinking about it.I don't want to sound arrogant here, but when my hand closes around the butt of my carry guns, it KNOWS which one it is, and reacts accordingly.
