TMc: Gun Carry Permit 04 | Eastern North Carolina Now


    YouTube has excellent training.

    I suggest spending a lot of time playing with your unloaded gun while watching TV. Read the instructions and open and close the cylinder again and again. Many revolvers do not have a safety so buy a trigger guard or cylinder lock or improvise something simple. During a home invasion there is no time for loading. If kids visit, unload the gun and lock it away. Parents have a real dilemma.

    Assume you bought an easy to use 38 caliber revolver shown in previous articles for home protection only-you can then go to the gun range and buy a small box of ammo, pay for the lane; rent eye and ear safety equipment, shoot 12 rounds, unload, and go home. You will then be 50% trained. Gun Range Link

    Conclusion: Using the 80/20 rule of business (you can learn 80% of a subject in the first 20% of time; use the remaining 80% of time to become an expert), I have enough knowledge for home defense. Fortunately, a retired policeman buddy gives free lectures and visits gun ranges with his trainees. Be safe out there.

I'm not worried TMac, you see I have the gate guarding my neighborhood and since every house looks the same, I doubt anyone would be able to find me. Not even a Swedish Stewardess.

This has been a good series.

I will dig up my Training with a BB gun article from Grandpa's Diary and review to see if it is worthy of BCN (based on most of my articles, how would I know?). We actually did train using Daisy Lever Action BB guns.

For what it is worth, the BB gun article is published now.
