Gunfight Rules

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading."

In a gunfight, the most important rule is ... HAVE A GUN!!!

These are shooting tips from various Concealed Carry Instructors. If you own a gun, you will appreciate these rules... If not, you should get one, learn how to use it and learn the rules.

RULES

A Guns have only two enemies: Rust and Politicians. Rust can be prevented, Politicians cannot.

B It's always better to be judged by 12 than carried out by 6.

C Cops carry guns to protect themselves, not you.

D Never let someone or something that threatens you get inside arm's length.

E Never say "I've got a gun." If you need to use deadly force, the first sound they should hear is the safety clicking off, or the hammer cocking.

F The average response time of a 911 call is 23 minutes; the response time of a .357 is 1,400 feet per second.

G The most important rule in a gunfight is: Always Win - there is no such thing as a fair fight. Always Win - cheat if necessary. Always Win - 2nd place doesn't count.

H Make your attacker advance through a wall of bullets ... you may get killed with your own gun, but they'll have to beat you to death with it because it will be empty.

I If you're in a gun fight:

(a) If you're not shooting, you should be loading.

(b) If you're not loading, you should be moving.

(c) If you're not moving, you're dead.


J In a life and death situation, do something ... it may be wrong, but do something!

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

L Never fire a "warning shot", that is just one wasted bullet, which could be needed within moments.

M You can say "stop" or any other word, but a large bore muzzle pointed at someone's head is pretty much a universal language; and, you won't have to press 1 for Spanish/Mexican, or 2 for Chinese, or 3 for Arabic.

N Never leave a wounded enemy behind. If you have to shoot, shoot to kill. In court, yours will be the only testimony.

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

Sums it up quite well

Makes good sense to me!

Absolutely nothing wrong with any of that.

Need that on "flash memory", you know . . . remember it in a flash
when the right moment arrives.

If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

Get a Glock. Hammers and thumb safeties are silly.

My rule #1 for gunfighting is,.....stay out of any place where you may be forced to engage in a gunfight.

That's pretty easy for me to do these days.

First Rule of Gun Safety:

Don’t ever be without it.

Addendum:

Carry like you will be inside arms length, the thug will always have the drop on you.

Ask a question that will confuse the attacker. I learned how to say “you are doing this on your grandmothers birthday?” in nine different languages...Its like a deer in the headlights until whatever it is that makes them human leaves their body.

Do not be afraid to pull him in tight or go to the ground as you fire.

React as violently as you can bring up from within.

Crush their pelvis and tear their eyes and cheeks off when you are done. Or put one through the forehead, Freddy Cruger always seems to get up, don’t let him.

Do whatever Sagebrush says!

With one in the pipe..

I attended four full days of tactical pistol training recently. One of the things they taught us is when you are making a magazine change in a gunfight you have the rest of your life to get it right.

Yessir. True.

I will share with Y'all the advice I have been giving my son for years about surviving a gunfight.

"there's only ONE way I know of to guarantee you'll win a gunfight......Don't get into one in the first place!"


Frog---OUT!

Sage advice.


There are no victims only volunteers.

Be safe and carry cold. Guns are scary and dangerous. You might shoot yourself in the foot!
