Right...It can be just as big a mistake to underestimate your opponent.
Outside, maybe... Indoors, sure I can point the gun at the door to my bedroom and sit there all night waiting... If I plan to investigate the 'bump in the night', then the situation changes dramatically if you do 'underestimate your opponent'. Wandering around the home waving your long gun around creates numerous vulnerabilities to grabs or disarms. 40 inches of gun stuck out in front of you when you don't have the training for it really doesn't do you any favors in my opinion. I don't mean to suggest an untrained pistol bearer is a great alternative, but I think they are less vulnerable with a compact weapon unless they are complete idiots.How skilled do you have to be to shoot from behind cover?
Hey, whatever... you like it, go for it. Only you know if it's the right choice for you.
