I wouldn't show up guns a blazing either. Matter of fact I wouldn't have to show up, I would never have left in the first place.
That said, I would never fire one shot and call it good, my 45 has 8 for a reason, SIngle Shots are for the range.
As F.U. stated, most of the criminals are terrible marksmen, evidenced by every drive by you ever see in the paper, multiple shots fired, no injuries etc..I am sure not going to worry about 5 or 6 looters showing up armed, one maybe. But l have also never seen a pack of assholes in a standup fight, drop one and the rest will run. Yes, my shit is worth defending, its mine, fuckem. They get one warning, then I go hot.
Thats one reason we train, as a responsible gun owner most of you anti gun folks have pointed out multiple times, it would be irresponsible to Not be able to shoot and yet be carrying on the street.
