[QUOTE="Sam Shoun, post: 1926919, member: 15489"] I generally like to be prepared to solve problems. I carry a pistol for the same reason I carry a knife, flashlight, multitool, first aid kit, and several other tools (not all necessarily on my person)--in case I encounter a problem for which that tool is ideally suited. For the pistol, that problem would probably be a criminal attack. 1 & 2: Too many variables to answer. I think CQT class at USSA and ECQC with Craig Douglas go a long way toward preparing someone to move rapidly through the decision tree he/she would face. I've shared this link a few times here, but I don't think this lesson can be learned well enough. It addresses a need for an armed individual's mentality which is difficult to cultivate in a class setting--split-second prioritization when faced with a potential fight: [url]http://www.policeone.com/columnists/lom/articles/134804-Blood-lessons/[/url] [/QUOTE]
