If you do, please make sure that you have the skills to both physically and legally use a weapon. One of the most important things in the day and age, it to understand the local use of deadly force laws, what self-defense really means to a “reasonable man” and what brandishing means from a legal perspective.

Some folks who grew up with firearms or were in the military or taught by those in the military understand firearm skills and safe firearm handling. If you don't seek training.

However, few outside the law enforcement or legal profession understand the laws that govern the use of firearms and how you can get yourself into serious legal trouble trying to use “common sense” in your defense, when court cases are about legal precedents and legal technicalities.
