Anything is possible, the safest measure is always to keep completely private, but shall we assume it's not much more risky than simply advertising any firearms affiliation.

Sun TZu, is great advice when you know who your enemy is, like the mongols or Persia or some other foriegn nation, or ideological fanatics. When dealing with random people whom you have no idea might decide to show their criminal side you don't get any chance to study their history. Yes you...

I'm glad to see that some people get it. Anything they might be feeling plays no bearing on your strategies, tactics, or training.

If your a Glock owner/shooter Next Level Training has the SIRT Glock. I've got one, and it's absolutely fantastic. I don't have to rack the slide, it allows me to practice magazine changes, I can even use my glock mags with it. And being it's NOT a fire arm, no possibility of an...

Once a victim starts fighting back, the attacker will experience the same fight or flight reactions.. Tunnel vision,audio exclusion.. Etc. Because it just became a defensive situation for them too. Not to mention they may already be experiencing "stage fright" for lack of a better term. Again...

Anything is possible, I suppose it'd be my luck one time I might forget to drop the magazine first... though I'm hoping rule No.2 (booger hook off the bang switch) helps with that too. But I could go on a lark about how leaving the ejected bullet on the floor might create an unsafe tripping...

I carry condition one. When I get home I remove from holster, drop the mag, rack the slide, (when I'm feeling cool I catch the bullet) then reload the round in the magazine. Visually inspect the is no round chambered, reinsert mag,and press check to confirm the is no round chambered before...

I think most responses covered most bases. Criminals are humans like anybody else, and each of their experience levels are going to vary. Simply put in a world were we have no control over the conditioning/experiences of others there is no point in assuming anything about them, that doesn't in...

You can also check out Houston Tactical Shooters. I've done several courses with them, great instruction and nice range. Plenty of experience in the instructors not just in combat skills, but in actually teaching them in a way you can understand and absorb.

You make a valid point, but at the current state of affairs the dog is a lot cheaper than land mines. If your on somebodies radar enough to warrant a hit squad with suppressed MP5's your either a drug dealer, or posted too much anti Obama rhetoric on forums like this. A dog is just another...

I suppose then you'll have no use for your extra magazines, pepper spray, tazer, baton, shot gun, rifle, or all the help that will come without delay as soon as you call on your radio then.

Why do people always assume they're going to be attacked by just one assailant? Why would you want anything less than the absolute most possible chances to save your own life? And why would you assume that your aim is going to be anything like it is at the range when your fighting for your life...

The P250 is a nice gun, great grip, but the trigger is really heavy being DAO, I have eventually resorted to the G19 as primary carry. Nice to shoot on the range, large enough grip I no pinky pieces require. And the price and availability of extra mags, and custom parts let your really make it...

After much more research it appears you are indeed correct. Do you happen to know when this changed? I remember back when I took my class being told that Texas honors all other states CHLs.

While Texas doesn't have an "agreement" Texas honors ALL states CHLs.
