Hi,
This is kind of a crazy-sounding topic. But I'm curious about some things:
1) Would you ever shoot from ambush under any circumstances?
2) If so, please include why. (SHTF is seemingly a valid reason, but please elaborate. I don't want this to be a SHTF thread)
3) Tactics for justified shoots of this type, please. I know criminals ambush cops all the time, and it doesn't take a lot of guts or know-how to hide and shoot someone in the back. With that in mind, please tell me after answering 1 and 2 a little bit about tactics.
I want to think this out to have another tool in my toolbox. I really liked the pepper spray thread recently that discussed lethal force vs criminal armed with pepper spray. Thinking through it helped me make my mind up about what I would do.
