“I would suggest that you take your own advice?”

Your suggestion went into the “round file” LOL

The HUGE difference in my posts on firearms and 99% of the “keyboard cowboys” on FR; is that I have had years of combat experience.

Happy Easter

With all due respect...

I don't want your experience. I hope to never have that experience. I'd prefer it if nobody did.

That said, I will call you a fool or even dangerous if you intend to direct people not to be prepared to a reasonable extent to take on the responsibility of ensuring their own safety.

If some idiot comes on here and asks where they can jump the next ship to pirateland so they can live out some deranged fantasy associated with shooting up the bad guys - have at them, please. Make them hear that unique metallic ripping sound of a round flying too near by. Let them know the hell that such situations entail, the reality of the losses and I am sure pain.

But for those that post asking why not be prepared for trouble if trouble comes to find you...

I see a world of difference between what you consider a keyboard cowboy, and what another might see as a keyboard boyscout - just trying to look into the options for always being prepared.

Take care and thanks for your service.
