Arizona is probably close behind texas. It isn't called the wild west for nothin'. (well maybe they don't call it that anymore, but I have enough weaponry to make up the other 30%) lol
I try to abide by CCW laws and not carry when we see the legitimate signs. (known in Texas as 30.06 "thirty ought six")That's one reason that I sought out edged weapons training and I would highly recommend it for all. The 21ft rule will help you understand that in many, many instances you are better off using an edged weapon than trying to draw from concealment.A joint study by FBI/IDF concluded that edged weapon encounters are 3 times as deadly than firearm encounters.Don't underestimate the practicality or lethality of an edged weapon.

After days of that you are so covered up with bruises that you look like you did a tanning session under a rock crusher discharge tube.

that drill has a special name, and I cant for the life of me remember what it is called at this moment. I will have to take a look at my paperwork tomorrow and refresh my memory.

I was just running over this in my head at length the other night. Would I opt to try and draw my weapon with a gun already in my face? I dunno... Lots of variables. I haven't had intensive training like lots of you, it might be naive to think I could flip that scenario effectively with a high probability. Would be foolish to ensure getting shot by fumbling with trying to draw if a couple credit cards and the $20 bucks in my wallet is all the dude wants.One things for sure, next time I'm walking in the dark in seedy areas, I'll probably be more inclined to discreetly remove some concealment (tuck shirt behind holster, unzip jacket, etc) as to make quick access as easy as possible.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
