I only ask because while reading this board i am amazed at the vast knowledge of its members. People debating over which is the best caliber weapon, what is best for CCW, what kind of ammunition to carry, the effectiveness of laser sites, etc... and i was thinking, does all this really matter? i mean honestly... if god forbid there was a situation where u had to use deadly force, do you really think you'd have time to think, "oh ****, i wish i packed my .45 instead of my .22." or "man this laser site was a waste of money."
to me it seems if anyone were in this situation, you'd be scared so ****less that it probably wouldnt matter in the slightest. I'm sure there are marines with significant experience in live fire that post here on board, but i'm talking about everyday life situations..
i've never been in a live fire situation and i pray that i never will be, but if it ever did happen, i dont think i'd have time to bitch about.."damn! i should have bought that 9mm instead of this .45cal!" The only thing that would be on my mind is drawing my gun and stoping whomever is trying to hurt me. everything else comes in a very distant dismal 2nd place.
