We developed the 45 cal because it had knockdown power savages were still coming with a hatchet after taking a smaller cal. Also you have to be able to get to your handgun you have to be able to then raise your arm if you are within range this may not be possible. Someone can throw hands or grab your arm faster than you can draw aim and fire. Once I grab someone and we are tied up there is no way they are drawing a gun.

P365 is super small.
Might be right for you, but try the 365XL as well.

I have a Sig P220 .45 semi but its a cannon and kind of heavy.....That 365 micro compact is perfect for carry

Not if they’re trained. If someone can draw In 1.2sec or less while creating distance you don’t have a chance

;D But what if they draw their gun after you've put them out of range by using the patented Hankins toss?

They'd be half a mile down the street and too concussed to even aim. No one survives Brian's secret shoulder throw.

The Sig Sauer P365 is a nice gun for carrying.
When I carried it was a .38 Special S&W Model 60 with hollow points.
My backup was a little Beretta .22 semi-auto in an ankle holster. Also hollow points. Very accurate for a head shot.
I don't carry anymore as I stay away from bad places.

A gas station could be a bad place or a restaurant. Where are good places in America anymore..
-
There are studies that show a man can close from 20 feet away before you can draw a gun.
Most people don't walk around with a six gun in a quick draw holster like the old west. And most people don't practice quick drawing constantly to stay sharp.
A assisted opening pocket knife is a helluva weapon for close encounters.

Nowadays not too many.
If you feel the need to carry then do so.
Places to avoid are bars, anyplace people are drunk or drinking, places late at night, crowds.
Keep your temper in situations, road rage, don't challenge people, control your anger if someone pisses you off.
All the stupid stuff we do when we are young and dumb.
Don't be a Bhanky.

Most people who carry only have basic training.
I have been taking advanced classes and competed in many different shooting activities over the last 20 years.
I don't carry as much as i used to, mainly because i live in an area with almost zero crime.
But when i go to other places i carry a Glock 43 and have a tactical knife that is great for close encounters.
If you understand how to maintain and create space in a situation, a pistol is going to always come out on top.
Like you said, always be aware of your surroundings and don't corner yourself anywhere you go.
I've been in some bad situations before and thankfully was able to get out of the situation without issues.
I always tell people, if you see me suddenly get up and motion to leave, it's probably best to follow.
A few years ago i saw an altercation between a group of thugs beginning in a restaurant and could tell it was escalating. I grabbed my GF's arm and said let's go, she tried to ask me a bunch of questions so i just walked out of the place. About 2 minutes later two guys got stabbed 20-feet from where we were sitting.

Good advice.
-
The pistol that I’ve carried the most is the Glock 43. Probably because it’s a single stack, so it’s thinner and more comfortable to wear. Comfort is an important factor for sure. You won’t wear something uncomfortable for very long.

I have carried and trained with a G36 for well over 10 years. It has been a great platform for me and I am better at staying on target with this pistol than I was with other calibers. My ammo of choice is the Speer gold dots as they are among the most proven rounds on the market.
But everyone is different and the pistol needs to fit the shooter.

4 point draw from OTW, 5 point draw ITW (concealed appendix carry) should be taught even in the most basic courses. Most basic pistol instructors won’t teach it

Ok, look. For those who think they shouldn’t carry because of temperament, carrying should and in most cases do the opposite and actually humble you. Let me explain.
There are things that are in play…in ANY situation including the daily shootings in Chicago that I won’t touch on in this post.
One is the “method” to shoot someone, that being the firearm. If you’re carrying you obviously have the method. Two is the “opportunity” if you have the “method” you can come across the “opportunity” to blow someone away if they piss you off in anyway, but most of the civilized world won’t do that, which brings into “intent”….most of the civilized world DO NOT come with the intent to kill someone unless it’s in self defense, protecting family or others.

All of the bad situations i've been in where i felt in danger had absolutely nothing to do with me, just wrong place at the wrong time.
I've never started an altercation in my life, not even when younger.
Carrying a gun doesn't make you a Cop or Captain America; in all situations you should deescalate or leave completely. Deadly force is used when you have no other option. That's why you always have an "out". But sometimes you have no other option.
Some colleagues were in Las Vegas last week when that stabbing happened.
Unprovoked and happened at 11am. There is no way to avoid these things and they happen every single day.
The time i almost got killed, i was walking through a parking garage after shopping at the Galleria mall in Houston. Got approached by 4 thugs with weapons as they intended to rob me, luckily i managed to get away and into my car. An old lady was robbed and beaten to death 2 days later, in the exact same place.
Stay strapped.

Nah brother, mechanically they are worlds apart.
I have a short list of weapons I will buy, load rounds into, put in a holster, and go to work.
I know these weapons will go bang every time..I don’t even need to test fire them or do an initial cleaning.

2) sig

I stopped carrying my Shield because it was becoming a liability. After awhile the magazine wasn’t seating and when I got it to seat was staring to pop out. At first I thought it was my holster but the trigger guard was covered the release. I switched out to my CZ then after a few weeks took the shield to a gunsmith. He took it apart and said the release and around the release was rusted. He cleaned the rust off and put anti-rust coating on it.
It’s fine now but still a little sketchy about carrying for reliability purposes

Reading some of the comments, seems like some of you shoot (to kill) on a weekly basis..
Where i live, if i get mugged by 2 or 3 non armed criminals and i shoot one, i'm in a world of legal problems, most likely will go to jail. Even if i get punched or hurt, most judges will claim my use of force was not "proportional".
Even cops that are punched cannot fire a gun without getting suspended or worse.
That being said, i would choose a .22 pocket gun:
Less lethal, less legal issues ( i am not The Punisher).
If you miss, the bullet won't cause the damage a higher caliper would to innocent stanbyers
Cheaper
Cheap bullets for practice
Smaller and more "confortable" to carry everytime
Does the job of showing criminals you won't take any shit

You want your firearm and ammo to be lethal so you make sure you stop the threat. Otherwise the threat can and likely will kill you and your loved ones.
If you miss, your bullet can hurt or kill an innocent bystander. It could go through a wall and hit somebody else. If you're not using hollow point it could go right through your target and hit somebody else. Know your target and what's behind your target. Practice so you won't miss, and use hollow point ammo.
You can't "show" criminals you won't take any crap if they are high. You have to stop them.

Ah, there you go. This thread is simply about sharing opinions and ideas of law abiding citizens. Most of us have been vetted before carrying. It's the law breaking criminals that you have to worry about, they don't care about Americas soft ass prison system.

Sorry but don't know how to post a vid but did anyone see what was shown from the body cam from the officer ambushed in Bristol CT?
A fake domestic violence call was dialed into 911, when the three officers arrived they were ambushed from behind by a man with an automatic weapon.
Two were killed and the surviving officer while shot in the leg makes it back to his patrol car, gets behind it and takes one shot and kills the gunman all the while on his microphone talking calmly with dispatch The whole time you can hear screaming and gunshots in the background.
I don't use the word hero often but that man and what he did was damn impressive.

Sorry but don't know how to post a vid but did anyone see what was shown from the body cam from the officer ambushed in Bristol CT?
A fake domestic violence call was dialed into 911, when the three officers arrived they were ambushed from behind by a man with an automatic weapon.
Two were killed and the surviving officer while shot in the leg makes it back to his patrol car, gets behind it and takes one shot and kills the gunman all the while on his microphone talking calmly with dispatch The whole time you can hear screaming and gunshots in the background.
I don't use the word hero often but that man and what he did was damn impressive.

Interesting comparison between very small caliper ammunition (.22 Magnum vs .22LR):
(For the ones living under very restrictive gun laws like myself)
Damaging power from minute 8:50 on.

Either one of those will do the job.
A couple observations.
One is that the kick from the .22LR is much less than the .22 Magnum round.
.22LR is much easier to keep on target even if shooting one handed.
Small .22 handguns (smaller than those in the video) are very easy to conceal and carry. You can just put one in your pocket while making a stop at the convenience store.
Larger handguns are cumbersome, uncomfortable, and hard to conceal, which may cause you to not want to carry them around, and if you don't have it with you it won't help you.

Nah brother, mechanically they are worlds apart.
I have a short list of weapons I will buy, load rounds into, put in a holster, and go to work.
I know these weapons will go bang every time..I don’t even need to test fire them or do an initial cleaning.
1) glock
2) sig
3) m&p’s
That’s it

This is my CZ 75 Compact. I carry appendix and the belt you see here is a 1.5” ridged belt set up. I also use another Velcro inner belt (1.5”). Both for the CZ and M&P Shield holsters. With the CZ I do have to make some minor adjustments because is about the same size as my G19. The smaller M&P fits nicely.
When you conceal carry you have to make some adjustments to your wardrobe but with this set up I don’t print even in a tee shirt. The other thing to consider is making sure when you draw your firearm, the holster doesn’t come out with it, the main reason a proper belt set up. Yeah, it’s going to be a little uncomfortable even for the best set ups. I also use side ways mag pouch so it doesn’t stick my sides or belly

It’s sad. This one one of the reasons at least where I’m at the CCL application has a 98% approval and with the SCOTUS ruling that the good cause statement is unconstitutional makes it easier. PD’s like it because they flat out say they need the help because of some of the budget cuts

Ah, there you go. This thread is simply about sharing opinions and ideas of law abiding citizens. Most of us have been vetted before carrying. It's the law breaking criminals that you have to worry about, they don't care about Americas soft ass prison system.
If I’m working on the south or west side of Chicago I’m going to “dress for success” and worry about keeping my life intact. If you live in Europe, you probably can’t grasp the lethality of an urban black neighborhood in a large Democrat run city in America.
But you will never see a video of me being robbed and beaten by a gang of urban “yoots” on the evening news. Don’t let yourself be a victim.

P365 is super small.
Might be right for you, but try the 365XL as well.
My EDC is a P365. Super comfortable and relatively easy to conceal IWB holster. Also quick and easy draw. BUT, I can't hit the broadside of a barn with it (perhaps a bit of an exaggeration). If I could comfortably conceal and carry a full size, I would as I'm much more accurate with them. Actually, I'm more accurate single handed left or right with the EDC.

If you were ever in a situation that warranted use, target would be close enough that you'd hit it.
But I hear you - it's taking time for me and the XL to be decent at using it.

I have had a lot of force on force encounters and I have never been comfortable with a small gun.
However, even though my work gun is an P320 xfive legion and my concealed carry is a p320 spectre comp…I never saw the p365 xl or micro as a disadvantage..they hold as much as a full size, have a great grip angle, and can run normal rugged red dots.
Would I carry one? I’m really not sure mentally I could ever overcome it with all my other options that are available..but if I couldn’t carry a full-size the p365 micro would absolutely be my go to..I even own one..never shot it though

Leave the area and don't make eye contact.
It will leave you alone if you are quiet and don't seem like a threat.
Be as quiet as you can and back away quickly.
If you can't leave, hide behind a tree or another object so they lose track of you.
They will just walk away.
They are not predators, if you turn away and leave as fast as possible, they will not follow you like a bear or cougar. Only people who antagonize them or intimidate them get attacked, like this guy did.

Was driving over a mountain in a snowstorm in NH once. Visibility was poor, so I was creeping. Almost ran up on a moose walking down the road in front of me. Cannot describe the magnitude of how big it was - thought I could drive the car under it. Anyway, it walked for about 100 ft and veered off the road. Have to admit it spooked me a bit.

They are crazy big.
I've been hiking, fishing and camping all over America.
Once was fishing in Vermont. A big moose walked right up on me, i didn't hear it coming.
Was a tense moment and i just frozen for like 5 minutes.
It eventually just walked away.
They can ruin your day very quickly, but i knew as long as i was not threatening and stayed away from it nothing would happen.
I've had some standoffs with bears too, a completely different situation.

And because you don’t carry or can have firearms for protection even in your own home, you paid the price with your cops busting in private homes simply for not wearing masks. They took your firearms for a reason buy back or not. They still have knives. Do you want to ban them as well? I recall seeing not too long ago a fight between two groups of people, one advanced and was immediately met with a knife to the neck. He bled out and died within seconds. What’s the trade off?
Would love to see the legit crime stats of your country

I look at what most people believe. The guys on Getbig from the states feel they need to protect themselves both at home and in public. So they own guys, etc. Australia is way different. Sure, some punks and thugs carry knives and stabbings have been more frequent. Only the police and serious criminals carry firearms.
What happened over the last two years in some states in Australia over Covid 'safety' enforcements was extreme and misguided. Truth is most cops are not that intelligent. So they are easy to manipulate just like soldiers are. They are conditioned to follow orders. You can't judge Australia by what happened during Covid. The governments and public health were captured by big pharma and the same thing happened in most of the civilized world. Things are mostly back to normal here but not in the USA. When public health is controlled by politicians then all manner of ad hoc shit will happen and continue to happen.

Good luck. It's cute. It's comfortable in the right holster (I have the Blackhawk Statche IWB w/claw), conceals well enough and pretty comfortable. Anything beyond ~7 yards, GOOD LUCK. Even at 7, a bit dicey under pressure (snappy) and it has a long/hard (IMO) trigger pull. Go bang already!l On body, close quarter = fine. In home or off body, find something else. Very easy to shoot single handed tho. And if it has the thumb safety... leave that off.

It’s not a matter of being afraid, it’s a matter of being prepared. We all have the right to protect ourselves, our families, businesses and in some cases those that can’t protect themselves.
If some breaks into my house and my family is in there, what are you going to do? Wait for the cops? No, the average response time is 6-10min, by that time it maybe too late. But if you’re armed you have the right to eliminate the threat and save yourself and your family

I understand protecting home and family. However, wouldn't trespassers also carry firearms? Perhaps it is safer if everyone suspects others are carrying? That way more people are civil. I lived in Canada and Australia and never once felt the need to have guns around.
I visited New York in 1965. I was at Times Square and wanted to see Greenwich Village. I was with a mate and we started walking. When we got to some dark streets we turned around. I even bought a small knife when I was there! I did live in LA for a month in 1968. Never felt threatened or anything like that.

It's not like everyone's walking around carrying weapons and on edge man.
I get out a bit and I've literally seen one open carry in like two years, but it could be my area.
Either way, owning them doesn't mean you're paranoid or setting up your home for a siege or anything, and it doesn't mean you bring them everywhere (some do).
It's having them incase the situation arises - home protection, etc. And they're fun to shoot.

For most of us moving to another country isn’t even in the realm of possibility. Why move to a country where it’s illegal to protect yourself and your family with a firearm while criminals more than likely have them?
-

Better to have a firearm and not need it, than need it and not have it. Can't always rely on law enforcement to protect you and your family. Can't always rely on correctional facilities to keep the rapists and murderers locked up away from your home.

Different times, Vince but you hit it. I have no problem with someone who legally carries whether I know it or not. As far as the trespassers, yes they very well could be carrying but remember, it’s not the gun, it’s not any firearm, it all comes down to “intent”. I did a video this week on three components “opportunity” “method” and…..”intent”

I prefer to support my local shop, even if it means paying a few bucks more, I've developed enough of relationship where they will special order, call with advance notice of new arrivals, handle minor gunsmithing without a bench fee, etc. I realize that's not an option for everyone, but if you have a locally owned business, try to support them.

Tons of sites if you want to go online, find ones that have good reviews and shop around. Will make your head spin but you'll find yourself settling on a few places. Stay away from cheaper than dirt though, fuck those guys.

And it's been repeatedly proven that to draw and get on target with one in the chamber is quicker than drawing, racking and getting on target. I don't know of anyone that promotes carrying on an empty chamber. Some might say that it's ok to carry that way until you can get comfortable carrying with a loaded chamber. There may be, but nobody I have watched or learned from.
Practice is key, buy yourself some dummy rounds and practice, practice, practice.

There should be no debate. One in the chamber, safety off. If you have a holster that covers the trigger guard and practice your Trigger Discipline you will not have a problem. The ONLY way a gun goes off is by pulling the trigger. You can throw a gun up against the wall and it won’t discharge, however I don’t recommend doing that lol

What overload said. Take basic classes. Safety is ALWAYS first and should never leave your mind no matter how comfortable you get with your firearm. Get to know your firearm from top to bottom. From breaking it down, to cleaning to reassemble, Practice your draw stroke almost daily, in between range times, dry fire.

No joke. Carry that shit around your house, watching tv, standing/sitting/moving around. Get yourself comfortable with that thing around your waist, adjustments will have to be made. Like others have mentioned, get yourself a nice holster with 100% trigger coverage and nice adjustable retention.

Safety? Keep your finger off the trigger.

Store your ammo in a safe.
Lock your unloaded gun in your car trunk for easy access.
If you need to use your gun (a psychotic killer breaking into your house at 3AM for example), open your safe, get the ammo, go out to your car and get the gun out of the trunk and load it.
Be sure you're not in any of the numerous gun-free zones in your community before shooting.
Observe proper gun handling at all times.

A lot of classes with drills for self defense are extremely low round count…classes and training for combat and CQB are extremely high round count.
There is a misconception by some that shooting a lot of rounds will not yield a lot..and for a an untrained newb that’s true..
Like I said in an earlier post..I took a 2 day course test and today..yesterday was a 1000 rounds of handgun and today was supposed to be another 1000 but it got rained out…
Last weekend I had a CQB course at work in the shoot house and I stopped counting rifle rounds at 740ish..and probably 200 rounds out of the pistol just during transition and buddy carry drills.

Which is what I was kinda getting at. 200 rounds in an hour at the range seems excessive for a newb to retain any sort of muscle memory in basic mechanics like racking, trigger reset point, mag switching, emergency reloads, failures, etc. During the ammo shortage & ridiculously high prices, I learned to do some basic drills reinforce skill, yet spare ammo. I mostly train for personal / home defense, although I've taken a few tactical type classes. One was a 4 day (Frontsight in NV) and we went through about 750 rounds that entire time.
I've found drills like this to be very helpful.
Randomly load four different magazines with two to four rounds each. When done, shuffle them such that you can't tell which is which, or have a partner load and shuffle them for you. Load one magazine at random, chamber a round, holster your weapon and store the other three on your belt or on the bench in front of you.
When ready, draw and fire two shots at the torso area of the target, then briefly pause and fire a third shot at the head. If you run empty before firing all three shots, perform an emergency reload and fire the remaining shots. Do not anticipate the reloads; focus on maintaining good two-handed shooting fundamentals until the potential need to reload becomes an actual need.
Exercise extreme care when doing live-fire holster drills. If you have little or no experience drawing and quickly firing a loaded weapon, do so with exaggerated slowness at first. Maintain excellent trigger discipline and muzzle awareness all the way through the draw motion until you are fully extended and ready to fire. Worry about drawing and firing quickly only after many safe and successful repetitions at slow speeds.
When you can quickly draw and fire two rounds to the torso and one to the head, reloading quickly as needed, then move the target farther downrange and/or move on to timed drills.
________________________ ____________________
Randomly load four different magazines with two to six rounds each. Load exactly fifteen rounds between all four magazines. When done, shuffle them such that you can't tell which is which, or have your partner load and shuffle them for you. Load one magazine at random, chamber a round, holster your weapon and store the other three on your belt or on the bench in front of you.
Wait for your partner to call a number. Draw and fire two shots at the torso of the corresponding target, then one to the head. If you run empty before firing all three shots, perform an emergency reload and fire the remaining shots. Do not anticipate the reloads; focus on maintaining good two-handed shooting fundamentals until the potential need to reload becomes an actual need.

Maintain excellent trigger discipline and muzzle awareness all the way through the draw motion until you are fully extended and ready to fire. Worry about drawing and firing quickly only after many safe and successful repetitions at slow speeds.
Once you've fired the final shot at the target's head, your partner will call a different number. Engage that target in the same manner, reloading as necessary. Do not re-holster your weapon between targets.
If your partner calls "reload" in between target engagements, perform an emergency reload if your current magazine is empty. Perform a tactical reload (retain the partially spent magazine) if your current magazine has rounds remaining.
The drill concludes successfully once you've fired all fifteen rounds, three at each of the five targets, with ten clear body hits and five clear head hits.
For advanced versions of this drill, vary the number and position of targets, vary the number of rounds in each magazine, and/or race against the clock.

We mag dump at the end of the day to clear mags then clear the guns on the firing line with a buddy check then instructors check. Mag dumps shouldn’t be any more than 20-60 rounds depending on mag capacity and how many on your person and used in a drill. It’s not necessary but kinda fun. 200 rounds should be a little more than warm up rounds in various warm up drills

20-60 rounds? Standard AR mag holds 30...ok, but even 15-17 in a pistol. How do you guys dump 60 rounds? I might dump the last mag, I would never reload and dump a second mag, that seems like quite the waste.

It’s a good way to finish off with speed reloads, Tac reload and reloads with movement. I only have a few over capacity mags for both carbine and pistols. In my chest rig I’ll carry 3-4 AR mags on my gun belt 4-5 Glock mags.

Do not anticipate the reloads; focus on maintaining good two-handed shooting fundamentals until the potential need to reload becomes an actual need.
Exercise extreme care when doing live-fire holster drills. If you have little or no experience drawing and quickly firing a loaded weapon, do so with exaggerated slowness at first. Maintain excellent trigger discipline and muzzle awareness all the way through the draw motion until you are fully extended and ready to fire. Worry about drawing and firing quickly only after many safe and successful repetitions at slow speeds.
When you can quickly draw and fire two rounds to the torso and one to the head, reloading quickly as needed, then move the target farther downrange and/or move on to timed drills.
________________________ ____________________
Randomly load four different magazines with two to six rounds each. Load exactly fifteen rounds between all four magazines. When done, shuffle them such that you can't tell which is which, or have your partner load and shuffle them for you. Load one magazine at random, chamber a round, holster your weapon and store the other three on your belt or on the bench in front of you.
Wait for your partner to call a number. Draw and fire two shots at the torso of the corresponding target, then one to the head. If you run empty before firing all three shots, perform an emergency reload and fire the remaining shots. Do not anticipate the reloads; focus on maintaining good two-handed shooting fundamentals until the potential need to reload becomes an actual need.

Maintain excellent trigger discipline and muzzle awareness all the way through the draw motion until you are fully extended and ready to fire. Worry about drawing and firing quickly only after many safe and successful repetitions at slow speeds.
Once you've fired the final shot at the target's head, your partner will call a different number. Engage that target in the same manner, reloading as necessary. Do not re-holster your weapon between targets.
If your partner calls "reload" in between target engagements, perform an emergency reload if your current magazine is empty. Perform a tactical reload (retain the partially spent magazine) if your current magazine has rounds remaining.
The drill concludes successfully once you've fired all fifteen rounds, three at each of the five targets, with ten clear body hits and five clear head hits.
For advanced versions of this drill, vary the number and position of targets, vary the number of rounds in each magazine, and/or race against the clock.
I actually used to do something like this many years ago.
It's a good way to build muscle memory for reloading and changing positions/targets.

We mag dump at the end of the day to clear mags then clear the guns on the firing line with a buddy check then instructors check. Mag dumps shouldn’t be any more than 20-60 rounds depending on mag capacity and how many on your person and used in a drill. It’s not necessary but kinda fun. 200 rounds should be a little more than warm up rounds in various warm up drills
Most of what we do is controlled mag dumps once the timer goes off lol

JANUARY 9, 2023
The fatal shooting of a robbery suspect at 6873 South Gessner Road about 11:30 p.m. last Thursday (Jan. 5) will be referred to a Harris County grand jury.
Surveillance photos of the male shooter wanted for questioning were released the following day (Jan. 6).
Today (Jan. 9), the male, 46, was questioned by Houston police homicide detectives. After consulting with the Harris County District Attorney’s Office, it was determined the shooting will be referred to a grand jury. Since the male is not arrested or charged, his identity is not being released.
The deceased male is identified as Eric Eugene Washington, 30.
HPD Homicide Division Sergeants M. Arrington, C. Duncan and Detectives S. Overstreet and L. Lovelace reported:
Officers were dispatched to a shooting call at the restaurant at the above address and observed an unknown black male in all black clothing, a black ski mask, and black gloves had been shot multiple times inside the business. Paramedics pronounced the male, later identified as Eric Washington, deceased.
Witnesses told officers the suspect entered the restaurant and pointed a pistol at patrons as he demanded their money. As the suspect collected money from patrons, one of them produced a gun of his own and shot the suspect multiple times. The shooter collected the stolen money from the suspect and returned the money to other patrons. He and other patrons (victims) then fled the scene.
Any patrons present during the time of the shooting are encouraged to contact the HPD Homicide Division at 713-308-3600 to provide statements to investigators.

"Homicide" merely means the killing of one person by another person. Murder, Manslaughter, Negligent Homicide are all crimes with varying degrees of intent. Some homicides are justifiable.
I get that the final headshot is a bad look- in particular because the piece of shit was no longer armed BUT it's really a moot point. You can't "extra" kill some one. It's like when cops are involved in a justified shooting and the media focuses on the number of shots fired. So what. Is the shooting justified or not? If the guys dead, he's dead. He can't be extra dead.
There's no good looking way to kill someone. It almost always os going to look bad. But sometimes it's a necessary evil.
I don't trust the fact they are referring to a grand jury.
They should thank the guy and move on.

Wow, thanks. I had not seen that.
He seems to jump back as he shoots him one last time, then quickly walks backwards. I think the corpse might have made an involuntary movement that startled the shooter.

"On Monday, the medical examiner identified 30-year-old Eric Eugene Washington as the robbery suspect who was killed.
Records show Washington had an extensive criminal history and was out on bond during the would-be robbery.
Records show that in 2015, Washington was convicted on a lesser charge of aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon and sentenced to 15 years in prison in connection to the shooting death of 62-year-old Hamid Waraich, a cell phone store owner. Houston police also charged two other men.
According to records, Washington was released on parole in 2021 and charged with assaulting his girlfriend in December 2022.
Waraich had a fiancée and three sons who reacted strongly when contacted by ABC13.
“If the guy who stopped Eric was around 10 years ago, maybe I’d still have my dad,” Aman Waraich, the son of the store clerk that was killed, said.
“Eric was an evil criminal that took joy in harassing and robbing innocent families. The individual at the taqueria is a true hero!” Sean Waraich, the victim’s other son, added. “He did the right thing in stopping the robber and in protecting the community from a dangerous perpetrator.”
Notice he got 15 years for help in killing a guy and he's out in 7 doing it again.

Obviously it will be up to a Grand jury or jury or judge, but from the video it seems it was excessive force. Yes. I think the dirt bag is horrible. I will lose no sleep over his death. But this is a nation of laws, and whether I would like to see all armed robbers executed on the spot is irrelevant in 2023. Maybe this will change sometime in the future.. but based on the current laws, the citizen will likely have to at least answer some questions. Most courses are very specific on deadly force use.

Probably has some truth in the 90's. With body cams and video it doesn't fly as easily and I would say cops would be held to a higher standard in that situation to a citizen with the video . I hesitiate to go into it because I haven't blown up the video and done a screen shot by screen shot analysis so my comment is limited to a small screen version that may or may not be accurate. but the broad scope of the law is that a citizen would have the right to use deadly force to protect themselves or others. Initially this was very apparent that the shooting was within the scope of that law. Where it gets fuzzy is at the end. Again.. forensic examination may provide additional evidence that would suggest the final shot was justified. and if it does, I'm cool with that. Personally, even if the final evidence shows the shooter was just amped up and jumpy and "thought" he moved, if I was on the jury I would be pretty lenient. All I'm saying is that with the arming of citizens, which I support, there are set rules in place. If we as a nation don't agree with those rules we should change them, not ignore them when it suits us.

Probably has some truth in the 90's. With body cams and video it doesn't fly as easily and I would say cops would be held to a higher standard in that situation to a citizen with the video . I hesitiate to go into it because I haven't blown up the video and done a screen shot by screen shot analysis so my comment is limited to a small screen version that may or may not be accurate. but the broad scope of the law is that a citizen would have the right to use deadly force to protect themselves or others. Initially this was very apparent that the shooting was within the scope of that law. Where it gets fuzzy is at the end. Again.. forensic examination may provide additional evidence that would suggest the final shot was justified. and if it does, I'm cool with that. Personally, even if the final evidence shows the shooter was just amped up and jumpy and "thought" he moved, if I was on the jury I would be pretty lenient. All I'm saying is that with the arming of citizens, which I support, there are set rules in place. If we as a nation don't agree with those rules we should change them, not ignore them when it suits us.
Good thing this happened in TX, here in CA that guy would have been crucified already.

Some blue haired Karen probably made a stink. Sickening that we accommodate all these degenerates.

Waiting on a new iwb holster from Urban Carry Holsters. This one is a hybrid, hopefully more comfortable than the two all kydex holsters I already own. Put 520 rounds through my P365XL, flawless.
Did you get the holster yet? Thoughts?

Received it yesterday. It seems really well made. They suggested placing my gun in the bag it came with and holstering it for 12 hours to help the break-in process. Seems like it’s going to be a lot more comfortable than a fully kydex Tulster holster I also recently purchased. I think this one will be a winner. After wearing it for awhile I’ll give another update

I'm always willing to try out new holsters if they're recommended. I have a box full of kydex and leather that I don't use. And a couple of kydex holsters that I wear all the time. I even went as far as trying the Essential Holsters Naked holster.

Every stupid law the left tries to enact is an infringement on the Second Amendment. This is just another way they’re trying to take your firearms

Yes it has and I have not used it once :'(. I don't carry daily. The main reason I began to carry again was to protect my wife and son when we go out for the day to do activities in areas that I may be unsure of. I'm retired and I don't roam too far from home. When I go out on my own gym, food shop or other errands in my area I don't carry. Hope to have an update sometime soon.

You should carry more often, you'll be more comfortable wearing it the more you wear it. I'm wondering if the leather is soft or what the break in period is like. You did get the leather with the kydex interior right?

Yes, kydex wrapped in leather. Looks great and looks like it will wear well just have to put it to use.

Yes
Admittedly, it took me awhile to get comfortable with it.
