I didn't see the original article. And yes, once the threat is stopped then no more rounds should be fired. Without reading the original article I can't say what category the person you reference would be in. I was only trying to comment on how I have learned to carry concealed and as to the...

As I've gotten rather plump(overweight) in my elder years I've found I need suspenders. My waist is now larger than my skinny butt and hips. This stops me from wearing my shirt untucked. Mostly now I wear a vest, a heavy weight one from 511 when its colder and a light weight one when its hot...

The outdoor range I go to is owned by a club, and ever sense a member that was into "cowboy" action shooting shot himself in the foot, now it's no more draw from holster. But I'm now retired and can go on week days when most others are working. Sometimes I will find myself alone(there is no...

Yes, a lot of people only get the training needed to get there CCW permit, In the states where one is still needed. A lot of states are now constitutional carry (no permit needed, if you can legally purchase a gun at an FFL you can carry it) as I believe it should be. Could we all use more...

I believe brass can be annealed (or reannealed) to extend its usable life. But I'm not 100% sure of this.

I have a bad back and a few extra pounds. That means I must wear suspenders (my waist is bigger than my hips/butt) or my pants won't stay up. Also due to my back (spinal stenosis) I need a holster that will spread out the pressure of the gun next to my hip. So a wide leather backed holster is...

Where I worked before I retired(after37 years) there was no express prohibition on carrying but I knew my boss (well really his wife, she was our book keeper) didn't approve. Small company, my boss, his wife, me and a part time helper. So I left it in my truck in a safe that had a cable tying it...

Yes, knowing self defense laws is critical. And there always changing and every state is different. That's why I try to read up on it all I can. There are some good articles on it here and the USCCA has a lot of good articles also. I'm not so much on reading actual legal documents, there to hard...

Most of the courses I've seen around here start around $300 to $400 not including ammo or travel. I do get some static range time, including some of the drills you mention. Though I do not know of ANY range near me that allows drawing from holster so I start from low ready. And I do a lot of dry...

Same here but I was 7

One thing, good training is for the most part WAY to expensive for most people. Also hard for someone like me( old, out of shape and disabled (I can only walk a little with a cane, further with a "rolator" and an oxygen generator) to find ANY one to train me at a price I can afford. Seems all...

Would love to take a course like this but can't afford it. Also my need to walk (slowly) with a cane might get in the way. The cane would also require me to shoot one handed, if I drop the dang thing its very difficult for me to pick it back up, and then I can't walk more than one or two steps...
