Firearm self-defense mantra
"Shoot on the move.
Shoot then move.
Move then shoot.
Practice all of these.
Static shooting will get you killed."
In order the handgun to be an effective self defense weapon, the owner must be able to hit a small moving target, quite possibly while he is moving, seeking a cover. Shooting training should always include movements; therefore, learn to shoot while moving. Whenever possible, you should practice with a moving target and moving shooter. Proficiency with a handgun is a fast perishable skill. Regular training is a single option to maintain your capability to be a proficient shooter.
Martial art people are saying:
“If you do not train 1 day, only you know that.
If you do not train 3 days, your teacher knows that.
If you do not train for 1 week, everyone knows that.”
It is also true for handgun shooting.

Just picked up this little Rossi snub nose. Haven’t fired it yet, but must get up to our local range soon.

What a fascinating video, SeaBreeze! Thank you for posting it. The man is a true artisan. Gorgeous rifle!!
I always admire people who have the ability to to hand make complex items that are both beautiful and functional.

Smith & Wesson Bodyguard (38 special) and Ruger LC9S (9 mm). Haven't been to the range in about a year but hoping to go a LOT more often when I retire in 2 weeks!

Bob1950, very true words there....
My daily carry is an old Makarov that I have practiced with for 25 years. Its second nature to me now.

A few years ago ibought a .38 Featherweight because it is small & great for carry. After putting about 40 rounds through it my hand was killing me the next day. Now I shoot ten and that is all.
