I use the example of hand loaded ammo VS factory ammo. The “wisdom” is to use common factory ammo so it does not become an issue during a lawsuit.
If we have to fire a CCW carried handgun and “do justice to the target” the wisdom I have read is we may not be prosecuted, but may be sued by the bad guys family.
There is much discussion about this and many variables. However something I have not read about is documentation of our shooting ability. Does this come up in court? If either the prosecutor or defense lawyer use our record of being a Competition shooter, will that be likely to help us – or hurt us?
Should we want to have our USPCA, IDPA, NRA classification readily available to “the lawyers”????
