Too many variables in too short of a time frame. Handgun vs Long Gun is not normally a winning scenario. Surprise, cover, concealment and movement are always factors that can tip the balance.

People will do one of three things: Fight, Flight, or Freeze.

In a street fight, use everything and anything available. Avoid if possible, flee if you can, fight if you must. Don't fight fair.

I don't carry, but given the right circumstances, I wouldn't hesitate to shoot a crazed attacker.


For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: "If a man will not work, he shall not eat."
