    Okay...Why is no one dead? Point blank range and no one on the ground? The video above this one with the couple waiting on the door doesn't look real either. Although one perp is on the ground, the women would have been pissing herself and someone would have come out of the door.

    Having a weapon and the ability is paramount. Choosing to engage is a whole life time of second guessing. In a post long ago I stated if Zimmerman had it to do over would he have engaged. My answer is no but hell no. Kinda like CPR, if I do not know you I will not be swapping spit with you. I will do everything possible to get you help but no first base. JMO

    Everyone "thinks" they will react in a certain fashion. Only by being tested will the answer come. You can practice till you buy Wal Mart out of ammo but pulling the trigger on someone is a whole other story. The majority will freeze, spray bullets or just piss their pants. Just sayin!

    Adrenalin my friend. Plus Brazil is a drug ridden country, thus the high crime rate. Thugs were looking for drug cash, not retirement funds so they may have been high on something. First shot most likely connected with the dude, but the second looks like it whizzed over the second thug head. You can go a long way on that adrenalin. That's why you need the two to the chest and one to the melon drill.

    Aging shooters...hmmm

    I've not pondered that concept, and it made me think a bit....
    Should I lose my eyeglasses in a scuffle, I would definitely be relying on body alignment and muscle memory as I couldn't find a sight if I had to.

    The doctor that did my cataract surgery gave me back my 20 year old eyesight, I was just amazed at how bad my eyes had gotten when I had 20-20 vision back. Definitely helps watching for critters on that F6B and has improved my aim a hundred fold.
    The funny part is that you have practiced most of your life trying to hit the bulls eye, and then you get into concealed carry training and they tell you that you have been doing it all wrong. Because putting rounds into the same place doesn't help your situation in a gun fight. It dawns on you that they know what their doing and you don't. Its and eye opener for sure and now you have to try and not hit the bulls eye every time you shoot and should spread your shots out to cover more of the target. Its a different concept for sure.

    And I fully get that idea. No worries. I'm 'assuming' based on previous training that when my added adrenalin/nervousness will spread out my groups more than adequately.
    I just don't want them spreading too far and going astray.

    Certainly. Center of mass does not equate to a bulls eye. But... you have to get your rounds on target.

    No OPLAN ever survives initial contact.

    tried a couple of IWB;s but not 100% happy. Went to this Blackhawk for OWB but still small enough plus I like the lock where it cant be pulled out of the holster by the bad guy
