Defensive Use of Firearms

Amidst news of a murder-suicide plot in California the story of a concealed-carrier, a Boy Scout and a handful of survivors in Texas was largely overlooked.

The Ruger SP101 combines a small frame with a full-power chambering in .357 Magnum, but it is limited to five rounds. The addition of the .327 Federal Magnum chambering bumps that up to six, while still having fight-stopping power.

Compliance is usually the best strategy for surviving an armed robbery. Material possessions aren’t worth the loss of human life, and you’re unlikely to draw and fire if you’re already looking down the barrel of a loaded gun.

Let’s say you go with the option to draw your weapon and try to stop the crime in progress. Now the crook has a decision to make — comply or fight his way out.

Not an hour into the shift, I had my weapon pointed at a car full of gangbangers in a stolen car. It was the first of many adrenalin rushes.

So I bet you have a gun for self defense. But do you have a lawyer? If not, who do you expect will defend you after you pull the trigger in a defensive gun use? There are things you need to now about what happens after, and a lawyer can help.

All the best gear combined with inaccurate knowledge of deadly force laws, poor mindset and poor training is, quite frankly, a disaster waiting to happen.
