Thread: Gun Wisdom

Some words to the wise. Shooting Advice from various Conceal Carry Instructors. If you own a gun, you will appreciate this. If not, you should get one and learn how to use it:

· Guns have only two enemies – rust and politicians.

· It’s always better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6.

· Cops carry guns to protect themselves, not you.

· Never let someone or something that threatens you get inside arm’s length.

· Never say "I’ve got a gun". If you need to use deadly force, the first sound they hear should be the safety clicking off.

· The average response time of a 911 call is 23 minutes, the response time of a .357 is 1400 feet per second. When seconds count, the police are only minutes away.

· You may never need a gun, but if you do, you'll really, really need it.

· The most important rule in a gunfight is: Always win - cheat if necessary.

· Make your attacker advance through a wall of bullets . . . You may get killed with your own gun, but he'll have to beat you to death with it, ‘cause it'll be empty.

· If you’re in a gun fight:
Ø If you're not shooting, you should be loading.
Ø If you're not loading, you should be moving,
Ø if you're not moving, you're dead.

· In a life and death situation, do something . . . It may be wrong, but do something!

· If you carry a gun, people call you paranoid. Nonsense! If you have a gun, what do you have to be paranoid about?

· You can say 'stop' or 'alto' or any other word, but a large bore muzzle pointed at someone's head is pretty much a universal language.

· You cannot save the planet, but you may be able to save yourself and your family.

· Anything or anybody that crosses your threshold uninvited, regardless of the time of day, has placed themselves in jeopardy.

If you believe in the 2nd Amendment, please forward.

The gun is just a tool. It's the person who uses it that determins if the use of the tool will be for good or evil.
