Do not underestimate the simple knife or club.

Understand that at 21 feet a man with a knife is more dangerous than a man with a pistol regardless of caliber.

Having a bigger gun does not protect you from another man with a smaller gun. Carryimg a .44 rem mag and getting shot in the head with a .38 special snubby still kills. The .44 rem mag will not lessen the impact.

Avoidance is the best weapon. Not being there is safest.

If confronted with deadly force, reply like your life depends on it. It does. You can sort it out with an attorney afterwards if you are alive.

Understand the use of force laws, morality, and traditions of your location.
