Anything worth shooting once is worth shooting a lot. Thanks, Gun Bunny.

“Colt made them equal…” Or not, always have a gun. If the other guy doesn’t, well, that’s on them. Of course, we can’t go around looking to start fights, and it’s not always wise to seek a permanent end to a temporary misunderstanding, but generally speaking, a gun on the person is worth any number sitting in the safe.

The way I see it, the second a gun is brought into play, we should expect to have to use deadly force. If someone is being overly aggressive on my property, there’s a chance the gun will scare them off. There’s also a big chance the gun will only serve to escalate things. If you hesitate to use it against an unarmed assailant and they overpower you, now you’re the unarmed party. Bad times. Shoot to incapacitate, and the best form of incapacitation is dropping the biological thermostat to room temperature.

Competence matters– a gun doesn’t magically bring stuff to a good end all by itself.

One has to wonder what the relationship was between these two? Or was it a random “I’m high” thing? As, well, one can’t talk, and the other won’t talk (if he’s smart).

“…shoot until HE thinks he’s dead…” And that’s the way you do it, girls and boys.

There are not enough adjectives…or curse words…to convey what this American knows about POS Xiden.

Rather spendy for a reach out and touch tool. For 4 very large it best be able to fetch a sammich…and a cold beer. I, for some reason…want one.

Want one what?
The rifle, the sammich, or the beer?
