Default Rules from the Hood

In a Gunfight, the most important rule is ...

HAVE A GUN!


The following shooting tips come 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

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


2. It's always better to be judged by 12 than carried by six.


3. Cops carry guns to protect themselves, not you.


4. Never let someone that threatens you get inside arm's length, seven yards is even better... much better.


5. Never say "I've got a gun." If you need to use deadly force, the only sound they should hear is the safety clicking off, or the hammer cocking... better yet, no sound at all.


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


7. 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 is a body bag.

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


9. In a Gunfight:

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

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

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


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


11. If you carry a gun, some people may think you are paranoid. Nonsense! If you have a gun, what do you have to be paranoid about?


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


13. You can say "stop" or any other word, but a large caliber muzzle pointed at someone's head is pretty much a universal language; and, you won't have to press:

1. For Spanish, 2. for Chinese, or

3. for Arabic.

That's why I think a revolver or one of these little bit
smaller 9mm's with such limited capacity are not for me.

My expertise in pickup gunfights is limited, but at the range of gun fights if it goes more than 5 shots I'm in a mell of a hess.

9(e) the fastest reload is a loaded gun.

Know a guy who carries 2

If you are hanging out in the hood, makes sense. Have a friend who hangs out in the hood near Flint. And he is a proponent of old guys fight dirty.

We either fight dirty or die! I'll not ever take a beating if I can help it.
