Quite simply, luck seldom has much to do with it.
Practice remains the key to success, and it will only be achieved by practicing the right things.
For those individuals who have chosen to carry a gun for self-defense, the picture has gotten very complicated.
And if you do find a modest quantity of ammunition to buy, be prepared to pay top dollar.
How else could you explain the millions of first-time gun buyers?
And if you are serious about personal defense, new shooters and old hands alike, you oughta practice.
But you’re gonna wanna do it wisely.
In all but the most unusual circumstance, the assailant will be well inside conversational distance.
In short, sudden danger can be unpredictable.
Another dynamic is lighting.
Just about all our practice takes place under the noonday sun or at a well-lit indoor range.
In contrast, most violent crime unfolds in the evening hours under less than optimum light conditions.
In some of these videos, an armed citizen produced a concealed firearm and quickly turned the tables.
Sadly, not all of these incidents had happy endings.
The harsh reality is that we may have to deal with more than one bad guy.
The last point to ponder is this.
Probability vs. Its a matter of probability vs possibility.
As indicated earlier, most problems will unfold at relatively short range.
So how exactly should you go about this?
The goal is to balance speed with practical accuracy.
If cover is only a step or two away, moving behind is yet another tactical plus.
In many instances, going for your gun first could be ill-advised.
These trainers can be used for other types of off-range practice including weapon retention and flashlight-assisted shooting techniques.
But, I do make a distinction between my recreational shooting and the truly serious business.
Quite frankly, I feel more frequent, modest round count training sessions are better than the occasional marathon.
Much of the close quarters shooting practice discussed herein can be done with a box of 50 rounds.
By supplementing your range time with some dry practice at home, you could keep the saw sharp.
