    So I took this Firearm quiz online....

    and these are the answers this guy gave....
    (you have to scroll down a little)
    https://www.frontsight.com/free-dvd.asp?quiz=true

    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.
