I hope, that unlike most of those I know who carry a firearm, you are properly trained in defensive shooting.

It is a discipline requiring a great deal of effort to “master”—something my acquaintances and neighbors here in rural north Georgia seem to think is merely the same “skillset” their grandaddies taught them when squirrel hunting.

Yes, I am formally trained. But you can find reports of people who aren't who dispatched an attacker. That even includes some children who had never fired a gun.

God bless Charlie Daniels.

I had the pleasure of driving around the Atlanta area several years ago while I was TDY at Anniston army depot in The Great state of Alabama

While driving around Atlanta kept seeing billboards for a local gun show, so I checked it out. I had already spent most of my perdium at the CMP south store in Anniston. But was able to visit with other firearm enthusiasts at the show. (Also known as " fellow gun nuts" lol)
