There area few that I disagree with.
Specifically 1,3,6,8,9,10
His answers are in bold.
What I think is underlined.
1) Which of the following handguns would you consider the best for general self defense?
-Single Action Revolver, example: Colt Peacemaker
-Double Action Revolver, example: Smith and Wesson Model 29 Why? Revolvers are less likely to malfunction.
-Double Action Semi-auto, example: Beretta 92F
-Single Action Semi-auto: example: Colt 1911
-Safe Action Semi-Auto: example: Glock
-Action Adventure Hero Auto: example: UFP2000
3) What method do you consider the best for everyday carrying of a concealed handgun?
-Ankle holster, covered by pant leg
-Belly band holster covered by shirt
-Fanny pack holster worn around the waist
-Holster on outside of belt covered by shirt, vest, or jacket From a defensive standpoint I believe this way allows quickest access to the weapon. If you can easily conceal your gun this way I dont know why IWB would be better.
-Inside the waistband holster covered by shirt, vest or jacket
-Shoulder holster
-No holster, gun tucked inside pants
6) What will tend to improve your accuracy with a handgun the most?
-Purchasing a newer gun
-Buying better quality ammunition
-Placing a laser sight on your gun
-Learning the “Three Secrets”
-Shooting more
8) What handgun would you recommend for a woman who wants to protect herself?
-Pocket Pistol
-Small Revolver Again....less likely to malfunction, and simplicity. Women are less likely to be able to clear jams and such.
-Single Action Semi-auto
-Double Action Semi-auto
-Safe Action Semi-auto
9) What do you feel is the best handgun caliber for general self defense?
-.45 ACP
-10mm
-.40 S&W
-.357 magnum I have always though the .357mag was the benchmark. It has more proven 'stops' than any other caliber. LE just stopped carrying it because of capacity.
-9mm
-.38 Special
-.380
-.25
-.22
10) What do you feel is the standard response in using a defensive handgun when you must shoot to defend your life?
-With a major caliber handgun, two quick hits to the thoracic cavity
-With a minor caliber handgun, three to four quick hits to the thoracic cavity
-With a sub-caliber handgun, three to four quick hits to the cranio-ocular cavity
-All of the above
-A and C only
-None of the above: You keep shooting until your attacker stops moving For obvious reasons. Maybe not until they stop moving per say, but until the threat is stoped. 2-3 to the chest may not be enough. I know his answer might be "technically" right, though.
