your dead right, dd. ive tought both my daughter and son and my wife about firearms. and the first thing to do when you get a new or different gun is to become almost one with it. and never ever hesitate if you feel like your in trouble because the one who has to think about it is the one who dies.my wife im afraid would be the one who would hesitate.but like i told her if they try to get in your car or abuct you on the street. dont shoot to wound them shoot to kill. and be the one who shoots first. its alot easier getting you out of trouble with the law than it is bringing you back from the dead.
