Everyone of us who EDC need to decide what we'll do if we're confronted with a life and death situation.
What would you do?
I know I've heard stories here from FReepers who have had to pull their firearms.
As concealed carriers, pulling our firearm is the last thing we want to do but we have that option.

Tuco’s Rule
Harry Truman didn’t give Japan a warning shot, even though some of his advisors wanted him to.
Warning shots, unicorns, Santa, the Easter Bunny, the good fairy, are bullshit. Shoot till the threat is gone. The best gunfight is the one youre never in, but you have to be the winner if thats the last resort. IMHO
This is very good advice for the situations described and for the literal acting of aiming directly at and firing shots directly at a threatening/advancing bad guy.
But it’s also good advice for Republican Attorneys General.
If you’re going to arrest criminal conspirators, arrest them. Don’t talk about it, especially endless talking, with all kinds of pre-talking through surrogates predicting bombshells and booms.
Just do your darn job and arrest the SOBs.
Sorry for hijacking the thread, but when I read the title and saw the line from Good/Bad/Ugly it’s what I thought the article was actually about.
Now back to the actual ontopic discussion. Sorry again for the digression.
It kills me when people say to rack a pump shotgun to scare the bad guys.
The chamber should already be loaded and you click off the safety and shoot the perp!
As concealed carriers, pulling our firearm is the last thing we want to do but we have that option.

Two things that one must keep close at hand.
A firearm and a parachute.
If you ever REALLY need either and don’t have, chances are pretty good you will never need anything again.
Warnings are for rattlesnakes. Bad guys advancing are for graveyards. You have to win, theres no other choice. The door lock was the warning. Advance further the brakes are off.
Your thoughts are appreciated.
ALL THE REASONS TO OWN FIREARMS

I do keep my pump with an empty chamber as a double safety precaution. But I do agree, having to rack a round is a minus not a plus. Its not my primary home defense weapon.
That’s always a good scene.
From me, the bad guys will just as much warning as I give deer before shooting them...none!
I also like in the Rockford files where he sucker-punches a guy and says “sorry, I guess I should have said, “1-2-3 Go!”
One of my shooting coaches recommends that you always fire three warning shots: two in the chest, and one in the head.
That first pic shows a problem. The apparent home owner is well lit and the perp is in the dark. I keep the hall to our bedrooms dark and a small light in the living room so any intruder will be in the light and I will be in the dark. Helps with sight picture and lessens their night vision.
