I wouldn't carry it. Nothing could be worse in an SD situation than a gun which didn't fire, as you likely wouldn't realize the problem before it was too late.
If the airplane was on fire hell yes.Would you jump with a parachute that is known to fail to open once or twice every hundred jumps -- and no reserve parachute?
But the airplane isn't on fire. We haven't even got in the freakin' airplane.If the airplane was on fire hell yes.
I don't think it is a choice between these two...at least my answer, point of view, wasn't directed at such a circumstance.Please, someone explain the advantages of going unarmed vs. being armed (albeit 2% chance of malfunction).
Is it better to have something that isn't perfect, or not carry anything at all? Remember, replacing it with another firearm isn't a choice at this point.
In logic, that's called "the fallacy of false dilemma."Please, someone explain the advantages of going unarmed vs. being armed (albeit 2% chance of malfunction).
If you have to put words in your opponent's mouth, you've lost the debate.So the "reality of violet crime" is that I'll certainly die if my gun fails to cycle after the first shot, in a normal self-defense situation?
