CPT Lawrence Cable - Was it standard training with the .45, or more of an "ad lib" thing?

CW3 Harvey K. - Controlled Pairs? It was how we were taught to engage a target. Two parts of the theory behind it, one is to overcome the shortcomings of having to use FMJ ammo, the other assumes that you are going to be in a bit of hurry and not wanting to wait to see how well you did with the first round, so you put another into him as insurance. I had learned that before I joined, but it's Army training policy.

CW3 Harvey K. - The first time I heard of someone using two rounds was by the Israeli's who whacked the terrorists who hit their Olympic team. Weapon of choice .22 with two to the head. I never Question Mossad methods when it comes to Terrorist eradication.

CW3 Kevin Storm - That sounds reasonable. I remember when a complete amatuer effectively defended himself from a 4 man threat, with what I would call "center of mass' and "boarding house rules" defensive shooting.
The situation changes with multiple attackers, and tactics change to fit the situation.

I absolutely love my Sig P320 Compact. It is larger than many, but I carry it in a Sneaky Pete OWB marked as a medical device. Never a problem in just under 2 years.

Oh, BTW, it shoots 1” groups all day long at 15 yds. Outstanding trigger out of the box. I routinely win local ‘carry gun class’ monthly matches with it without any gunsmithing.

I love my Sig as well, smoothest feeling action of any pistol Ive shot. I don't carry it because of the size but its the one that stays closest to where I sleep.

I prefer revolvers to semi's, other than that, I think the next most important thing is how it feels in your hand. Only you can answer that, but a gun shop can help.

Agree complety, career as a big city cop my secondary carry weapon was always .38 or .357 wheel gun. Comfortable, safe and never failed to go bang.
