Words of wisdom,
If you own a gun, you will appreciate this. If not, you should get one and
learn how to use it.
Shooting Advice:
Cops carry guns to protect themselves, not to protect you.
Never let someone or thing that threatens you get inside arm’s length and never
say "I’ve got a gun". If you feel you need to use deadly force for heaven’s
sake let the "first sound they hear be the safety clicking off", and they
shouldn't have time to hear anything after that if you are doing your job.
'The average response time of a 911 call is over 23 minutes* the response time
of a .44 magnum is 1400 feet per second.'
Clint Smith, Director of Thunder Ranch, is a drill instructor (Thunder Ranch is
a firearms training facility in Texas ). Here are a few of his observations on
tactics, firearms, self-defense and life as we know it in the civilized world.
"The most important rule in a gunfight is: Always win and cheat if necessary."
"Don't forget, incoming fire has the right of way.."
"Make your attacker advance through a wall of bullets. You may get killed with
your own gun, but he'll have to beat you to death with it, cause it's going to
be empty."
"If you're not shooting', you should be loading'. If you're not loading', you
should be moving', if you're not moving', someone's going to cut your head off
and put it on a stick."
"When you reload in low light encounters, don't put your flashlight in your back
pocket.. If you light yourself up, you'll look like an angel or the tooth
fairy... and you're going to be one of 'em pretty soon."
"Do something. It may be wrong, but do something."
"Shoot what's available, as long as it's available, until something else becomes
available."
"If you carry a gun, people will call you paranoid.. That's ridiculous. If you
have a gun, what in the hell do you have to be paranoid for?"
"Don't shoot fast, unless you also shoot good."
"You can say 'stop' or 'alto' or use any other word you think will work, but
I've found that a large bore muzzle pointed at someone's head is pretty much the
universal language."
"You have the rest of your life to solve your problems.. How long you live
depends on how well you do it."
"You cannot save the planet, but you may be able to save yourself and your
family."
"Thunder Ranch will be here as long as you'll have us or until someone makes us
go away, and either way, it will be exciting."
More Excellent Gun Wisdom*
The purpose of fighting is to win. There is no possible victory in defense. The
sword is more important than the shield, and skill is more important than
either. The final weapon is the brain. All else is supplemental.
'The true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but
because he loves what is behind him.' G. K. Chesterton
A people that values its privileges above its principles will soon lose both.
"Those who hammer their guns into plows will plow for those who do not..." -
