Some words to the wise. Shooting Advice from various Concealed Carry Instructors. If you own a gun, you will appreciate this. If not, you should get one and learn how to use it:

●Guns have only two enemies: rust and politicians.

●It's always better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6.

●Cops carry guns to protect themselves, not you.

●Never let someone or something that threatens you get inside arms length.

●Never say "I've got a gun." If you need to use deadly force, the first sound they hear should be the safety clicking off. (I prefer the sound of a round being chambered when you load a shotgun)

●The average response time of a 911 call is 23 minutes, the response time of a .357 is 1400 feet per second.

●The most important rule in a gunfight is: Always win - cheat if necessary.

●Make your attacker advance through a wall of bullets . . . You may get killed with your own gun, but he'll have to beat you to death with it, cause it'll be empty.
If you're in a gun fight:
1. If you're not shooting, you should be loading.
2. If you're not loading, you should be moving,
3. If you're not moving', you're dead.

● In a life and death situation, do something . . . It may be wrong, but do something!

●If you carry a gun, people call you paranoid. Nonsense! If you have a gun, what do you have to be paranoid about? (I call it being prepared)

●You can say 'stop' or 'alto' or any other word, but a large bore muzzle pointed at someone's head is pretty much a universal language. AMEN!

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