I think if Jesus were placed in a similar situation as the New Life Church security guard, he would whip out his Glock and double tap the center mass of any wannabe killer who was attempting to put a bullet in one of his defenseless disciples. I disagree. Our Lord and Savior would need but one shot and it would be right between the eyes as He would be The Perfect Shot. Moses got in trouble for double tapping so forgive me if I just can't picture Jesus doubting Himself with making two shots where one will do. The waste of the second shot would be poor stewardship.

The St James Church Massacre near Cape Town would have been far worse if someone in the congregation did not start shooting back as a one Charl van Wyk did.

Consider the parable of the Good Samaritan ...what if the Samaritan had arrived at the scene a bit earlier while the robbers were still beating the man? Would the Samaritan have hid until the robbers left and only then helped the man or would he have proceeded to fight the robbers off even to the peril of his own life to save the man?
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends (John 15:13).

Actually is has same exterior dimensions of a 1911A1 and with a larger bore , pretty much less metal in theory......:o)
No ......it is a bit heavier by mere ounces but the 325gr GDHP’s I carry for it add up a bit. Recoil is very manageable as it stays in 800-800fps range.
I like it !
but the price and wait time is the killer !

I would venture to say that the states with the lowest crime rates do not require gun registration.
