THIS IS NOT A THREAD FOR DORKS WHO PLAY WITH GUNS AND SPEED UP FOOTAGE ON THE INTERNET, OR THOSE WHO DON'T HAVE REAL WORLD EXPERIENCE IN TACTICS OR TRAINING. POST WITH QUESTIONS, BUT DON'T GET OUT OF YOUR LANE. Sorry to have to be a jackass about things, but I want this to be a serious conversation.
Lets set some basic ideas so we are all on the same sheet of music.
1- Are we talking civilian home owner setting? If a different setting lets get a rough idea, it doesn't have to be specific, but lets figure out where an event could take place and kick ideas around from there.
2- Are you alone or with others when something goes down?
3- Do you have defense in depth at the location you are at. For example, lighting, dogs, night, day or what have you...?
Once we have basic info, I look forward to people sharing. For my own background, yes I am an instructor. If we care about titles it is "advanced tactical instructor". I testify as a specialist, though I have been offered the chances to testify as an "expert". I have taught thousands of students, including force on force. I am also prior service, competed in military competition, and played in the sand box. The title and missions we did sounded exciting, but my desert time in the service pales to many. For joint operations I did some deeds with 2 Para and loads of others. I loved my time in the service. My cop time has almost always been working a crap hole of a city with high violence as a daily occurrence. The only reason I mention some of this stuff is so that readers can understand that I've seen a lot of use of firearms from good guys and bad guys. The most common way you are going to get into a shooting as a civilian is a burglary, though anything can happen at any time.
