Any one CC with empty chamber?

I cant remember what movie it was but the Glock made a revolver cocking noise

Yup. I was trying to remember the title and maybe find a clip of it before posting.

I'll name the agency. It was Baltimore city.

The cop would store his pistol in the freezer to keep it high and away from his kid. Months and months of constant condensation and thawing cause it to rust and fuse.

So many small safe options…makes no sense at all. Kid couldn’t get on a chair and get in the freezer? Before kids I simply had a pistol in the nightstand, quickly transitioned to nightstand safe once born, simple.

He probably put it behind the Brussels Sprouts, not the Ice Cream.

But yeah, so many better choices.

I think Glocks occasionally transition.

The solution is to get a a Glock. According to the movies they all make a chambering sound when raised and pointed, especially if pointed one-handed.

Mine do that!

I guess if you can do it well you do it:



Not a chance in hell would I do this. Too many things can go wrong on that extra step.

Well, the crouching tiger hidden dragon step is not needed either.

Yep, and having watched a variety of ASP videos etc., you very well likely don't get a chance to use two hands or have any ability to assume a preferred position. It seems just being able to get to your gun, drawing and firing with one hand is a challenge, and the other hand/arm is often engaged in trying to defend against the attacker or gain balance.

There is no " always " either direction . But does illiustrate the importance of practicing and having competency with one hand . ( Both hands , individually )

In today's world with a plethora of powerful micro pistols , ability to shoot it one handed is an important criteria for selection .

19 pages and has anyone changed their CC preference? Doubtful.

Yes, to be super safe I now carry empty chamber and without magazine inserted

 

[Threeband]

I'm carrying with the slide removed and in my pocket.

I lock the slide to the rear... of the vehicle. In the trunk. I sold all my bullets.

 

[Sunrise]

No.



No.



Absolutely not. Also, move the damn tables behind you (without the guns on them of course). One of these times he’s going to be careless and hit the table in front of him on the draw but it will be ok because he doesn’t have a chambered round.

Here’s some more of “Doron” from Fauda practicing:



Not sure why he’s turning the gun sideways…



Massad Ayoob weighs in.

Wow. I’ve never seen anyone with a stance this low.

Michelle Yeoh approves

I now carry aluminum billet, a CNC machine, and portable generator - in addition to the well-appointed machine shop in the trailer behind my car. Bulky? Sure, but it does mean I can fashion whatever gun is necessary for the situation.

Gang bangers trying to mug me? You’d best believe I got that nine on me.

Angry Kodiak? A 45-70 Marlin coming right up.

Home defense? You’d better believe I’ll have a lever-action leaning against the wall by the door before you can blink a few million times.

Interestingly enough, this is quite similar to the Applegate point shooting technique, developed from Sykes and Fairbairn's work in WWII.

I find it very uncomfortable to adopt a straight-leg locked-knee stance when training for a defensive shot. Being in a somewhat crouched position lowers my CG, aids in balance and allows for an easier transition into movement. But I'm old, stiff and awkward at the best of times, and I need every advantage.
