Nothing to laugh about
I think it's time to put this to bed. Lots of opinions have been expressed whether good or bad. Hope nobody was offended by any of the comments made. The comments will never change the world as it is today.
No offense taken, and again unfortunately, many perceptions & opinions are formed in ignorance or mis-information......or both. First, that rifle is equipped with a
magazine,
not a "clip". It is just one of many mis-used words or terms such as "point blank range". Second, there a few
facts You should acquaint Yourself with. A living animal will
typically live at least 7 seconds after sustaining a fatal wound, which is why some perps/victims are found almost 1/2 a block away from where they were shot, adrenaline
will get those legs moving faster than You'd believe. Killing isn't the objective of armed defense, it is incapacitating the threat, sometimes one is enough, sometimes it takes
an entire magazine esp. if the threat is higher than a kite. The FBI compiles data of all law enforcement armed engagements, and one of the metrics is the "one shot stop"
record, in other words they compare side arms/calibers for their record at neutralizing a perp with one round fired. For decades, because of it's power and still manage-able,
the .357 Magnum had the highest OSS rate. If You have to shoot someone in self defense, it does little good to shoot one round that strikes that individual if it does not
incapacitate them, because they will continue to shoot at You at that point if they are able. This moves into the value of suppressive fire, where the shot need not strike the
assailant, just prevent them from continuing the attack or being able to effectively shoot at You or your loved ones. That is why more than "a handful should be enough"
are sometimes needed. Hope that helps You Sir, This is
YOUR thread, and You can close it if You wish besides the Mods, peace Brother...................
