maybe i'm wrong but no two gunfights are ever the same. you could be at a gas station one day and 10 bad guys come in armed with AK's attempting to rob the place, in that scenario i'd damn sure move and take cover while asking the good Lord to save my ass one more time.

on another day you could be at the same gas station when 1 bad guy attempts to rob it, if that's the scenario then what's wrong with me drawing my side arm and shooting the bad guy, all while in the Weaver stance???

I don't know you or your background, you could be Alvin York, Chesty Puller and Audie murphy all rolled into one or you could be somebody who's read and knows lot but never actually had shots fired at you. I just don't know, what I do know is I grew up around several men who had been in gunfights and lived. while he never would say how many I know for a fact my Father was in multiple gunfights while he was a Marine, a deputy sheriff and on the anti drug task force in Austin. something they all had in common was they listened to what Col Cooper had to teach, that's good enough for me.

Brownie's the real deal.

If you ever get a chance; train with him.

Then you'll understand.

Happy New Years to you and yours, my friend!
