One round into a naked guy that's breaking into my house?

It stopped him didn't it? Put him right on the ground. Remember you shoot to stop, not to kill. Of course enough force to stop has a good chance of punching his ticket permanently, but that's his problem.

Of course. It's a given that we never shoot until there is a deadly threat and stop as soon as that threat is ended. But I train with double taps, and if the threat is still there (standing) double tap again, and again, and once again if needed.

I normally have 26 rounds available to me as I'm out & about day or night, and I surly don't wish for it, I wouldn't hesitate using them if I need to.

What's your family's life worth, one round or two?
