I have a question for y'all: When did you first start developing a 'tactical/survival mindset' and do you remember what triggered it?
I think some survival instincts come naturally for many, while others never seem to develop them at all. Was their an influence in your life when you were younger that seemed to turn on your caution radar?
The earliest I can remember paying attention to this was while reading Louis L'Amour westerns as a young kid. He always seemed to articulate the habits of good gunfighters in his novels. After that, I always had my 10/22 somewhere close and always looked out at the barn, shop or down the road before I went outside in the mornings to see if anything was unusual. I think I was about 10.
What did it for y'all? witness a crime? zombie movies (those always seem popular here), Miami Vice? Father an LEO? Just part of growing up witha gun?
