gunfacts seems like a gun selling propaganda site to me:
That, sir, speak volumes about you and you goals here.
and as far as the average distance / time / duration of a self defense shooting
I know this
Yet you do not cite them.
you cant always watch your 6'oclock and 12oclock
& if they are close enough to harm you physically they can also grab your gun and possibly end up killing you with it
Same red herrings - you get the .00001% "possibility" the remainder lies with those who take their responsibility seriously.
if they also have a firearm / projectile weapon then were talking about a firefight & thats totally off topic
By what determination do you decide what is OT and what is not? Legal use of deadly force presumes that the other actor has the means and will to cause great harm. Without one, the other does not exist - therefore it is decidedly not off topic - it is within the natural progression of this thread.
I'm not an expert in anything just using common sense
Some of my comments are embedded above in blue.
There is some apparent truth in your last self-depreciating statement, but I must question the last part - common sense. It would seem that rather than engage in a genuine learning experience, you have cloaked yourself in the style of an agent provocateur.
