Gunfighting 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.

B: Its 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 1400 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: You can say "stop" or any other word, but a large bore muzzle  pointed at someone's head is pretty much a universal language; you won't have to press 1 for Spanish/Mexican or 2 for Chinese or 3 for Arabic.

M: Never leave an enemy behind. If you have to shoot, shoot to kill.  In court, yours will be the only testimony.

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