I carry a shield 9, and would choose it over ANY revolver. I can shoot it fast and accurately, and it is very thin and compact, making it very easy to conceal.
How might any firearm help?Imagine a thug with a razor to your loved ones throat.
Which gun would you want to take the shot? Carry that one.
What do think contributes to "stopping power"?t's all about stopping power.
With adequate penetration and the same expanded diameter, the 9mm should compare quite well to the .357 in terms of effective ballistics for SD.I would take a 357 with 2 rounds over a fully loaded 9mm.
Where on earth did that idea come from?Only takes one unless there’s more than one returning fire.
How might a strategy of "avoiding stupid people. places, and things" mitigate against the risk of violent attack at service station or outside of a grocery store in a good area, and how might such an attack constitute an "epic failure" of one's "life style"?Avoidance (stupid people, places and things) is a life style and in my opinion more important than your EDC. Should I suffer an epic failure in life style,
Yes.We've done this topic into the ground.
This might sound crazy, but you could perhaps, you know, SHOOT them?How might any firearm help?
That's one way to look at it. That's kind of what I'm getting at when I say:Tom Givens views it as whether a gun is a one, two or three opponent gun and also as time in the fight.
Well said.They realize that they have accepted a limitation and not because they think carrying more is silly.
You would shoot someone who is holing a razor to someone's throat?This might sound crazy, but you could perhaps, you know, SHOOT them?
I know, pretty wild, huh?
