Do you trust your hands? If so, I wouldn't even carry a gun on a holster.

I know y'all don't agree with me, but I'm telling you, almost every situation I see where someone gets killed, would have been avoided by not having a gun ready to go, on your hip..just fight with your hands....

I figured this out a while back. We, as in people on an outdoors message board,are 100 percent, or somewhere close to at least,Are rednecks.

Two type of people carry guns on them, gangsters who sell drugs and are constantly being robbed by other drug dealers or by stick up crews that just target drug dealers. The other type that carry are rednecks, and they usually won't pull one on you as long as you don't pull one or have one on you, unless there pussys and are scared to death of anyone that threatens them.

My point is, leave the gun in the truck, if you can conceal, then conceal, if not, then put it where you can get to it if you had to.. But just stay away from the gangsters and fight rednecks with your hands and you would be fine...

If you pulled ur gun on that guy ,just to scare him, that paranoid, prolly on Meth for a week without sleep, would have blown you away if he was holding a gun on his waist.

Just cuz you don't carry a gun on you, doesn't mean you can't enjoy your gun and collect them and whatever else you like to do.
I'm just saying, that gun will get you killed quicker then it will save you.

Plus, a jury and a good prosecutor could take that self defense claim and twist it out of control... Would you like to know what the charge is? Second degree murder,which carries a mandatory, life without parole, in Louisiana. If you want to see what that's like... Go to the o-t lounge on tigerdroppings, find the thread about the guy that got killed in Mississippi, now click on the first link you see... It May not be on the front page anymore, but u can find it. It's got a link in the first message of the thread...

Now, keep that gun on you, you end up dead, or hanging out with that sorry piece of shits twin brother in jail,hes the one in the link
....could you imagine hanging out in that cell with those dudes? Please tell me when y'all see the video.

This might be some of the worst advice I’ve ever seen.

While it’s good to have hand-to-hand skills for self defense, what happens when you get knocked unconscious and your family is at the mercy of a psycho? The lights are out for you and there’s nothing you can do. This also doesn’t take into account that one punch or thud against pavement can kill you. Just because you’re going hand-to-hand does not make the encounter non-lethal.

Firearms give you the benefit of distance. Regardless of a “tough-guy” attitude or whatever drug dealer stuff you were talking about, I’d rather have my own gun with me 20 feet from a threat than have no weapon and the threat inches away.

Responsible firearms owners aren’t looking for a fight of any kind. I don’t use my gun as a fighting implement - I use it as a last resort tool to either leave the danger zone or stop the threat. That’s all. Whatever use of my gun gets me away from danger quickest is what I hope to do in a given situation.
