[QUOTE="SMS, post: 1951549, member: 42"] It all goes back to this thread: [url]http://www.okshooters.com/showthread.php?511-Is-Your-Gun-a-Weapon-or-a-Talisman[/url] Weapon or Talisman. If you aren't comfortable carrying a loaded weapon....you are more than likely just relying on a talisman. That's not berating or belittling...that's speaking hard truth. I'll ask it again, what is more complex and time consuming in a deadly force encounter where fractions of seconds count? A) Drawing, aiming, and firing a loaded gun? B) Drawing, loading, aiming, and firing an unloaded one? Some argue that with practice B can be nearly as good as A....but it will [I]never[/I] be as fast as A or require less physical manipulation/skill. If one has the time to dedicate to making B nearly as good as A, why not just practice A more and be even smoother/better/faster? [/QUOTE]
