    I purchased a Springfield XDM (the "M" means match-grade barrel) in the 9MM about 20 years ago, and it was the worst firearm purchase I ever made. It shot about a foot high at 9" right at 25 yards. I thought I was just pulling my shots (though it was a very consistent group), so I handed it over to a buddy who was known to be a rock-solid shooter. He ended up getting the same group as me. So I called Springfield and went through the procedure to send it back for warranty repair. They sent me the pistol back with a note that it was shooting within spec. A foot high is within spec? Ironically, they included their test target that had several of the rounds clipping the top of the target. I took it back to the dealer I bought it from, and since I was a long-time customer, he took it as a trade-in on a Sig P229. I've never had another Springfield, and if you gave me one today, I'd immediately assign it to paperweight duty. Never again!

    So where does that break down for you? At what level of usefulness? It's better to have a fire extinguisher on you and not need it than need it and not have it, so do you carry one? It's better to have to have enough supplies on your to live 72 hours without resupply and not need it, than to need it and not have it. So do you have it?

    @@ASPextra Ultimately it comes down to 1) consequences of not having an adequate (or any) supply of said resource, 2) the convenience (or inconvenience) of keeping the extra supplies/items with you, and 3) your own sense of priorities. To your examples - the consequences of not carrying a fire extinguisher (which I do in my primary vehicle, and really should in all of them) is the increased risk of loss of property, it is fairly convenient to keep one on hand, and the preservation of said property is a fairly high priority. With the supplies, the consequence of not keeping 72 hours of supplies on hand are not good, but likely not life threatening (save for lack water of course), the convenience of keeping those supplies is, well moderately inconvenient, but in my mind I don't consider it a high priority as I believe the likelihood of an event that would require those supplies to be very low, at least where I live. With the extra ammo, the consequences of not having an adequate supply could be quite severe (of course, then we run into the question of what is adequate), the convenience of carrying the extra ammo is very convenient, and to my mind surviving an event that would require a firearm to resolve is about as high a priority as there could be. Last point - I have to say that, to my way of thinking, choosing not to keep a resource that is very convenient, and carries an extremely high potential consequence if ever needed, simply because the odds are you will never need it... well, to quote Mr. Spock, is not logical. Oh, and before I forget - thank you. I have learned many, many excellent lessons from your videos, and cannot adequately convey my appreciation. Please keep up the excellent work.

Carry 5 for all I care. :) You won't use one, I have literally only seen it once in 50k gunfights analyzed and that one comes with two big asterisks, but it's not wrong to have one as long as your other MUCH more likely needs are covered. And the part about "much more likely needs" and the actual statistical incidence of using a reload in any capacity as a private citizen is where the logic breaks down, amigo. :)

I am firmly in the camp that while she had a right to help defend a third-party, it wasn't with lethal force as it was just a fist fight between two men at that point. Can't be having people who are okay with stabbing people in the back out on the streets. Hope the police do find her.

    @ASPextra sorry, I don't have one. I bet you could find an old FBI training video online that explains it for you. For me personally, as I draw, I point the muzzle downward as I align the handgun toward the target, then point and shoot. It is a quick circular flick of the wrist once the barrel clears the holster. Reholstering is in reverse but much slower, and the handgun is raised higher than the holster until the muzzle contacts the holster. No flagging is necessary or desired.

  • @ASPextra

    Drawing from that strong side postion while seated in a vehicle is another topic altogether. But the simple answer is that it has some significant challenges that carrying front of the hips does not. Truely, it's somethat you need to work out in a dry fire mode in your vehicle to find the best way to get to your specific position in your specific vehicle. I think what you'll find is that it's pretty difficult to have a efficient and visually quiet draw from the strong side while seated in a vehicle. For most it will require driving the elbow it a more outward position as it slides between the seats and possibly raising the hips a bit to get to the grip of the pistol. UNLOAD your pistol then after tripple cheking it, go out to your garage and practice it dry.

    I'm not saying this is the answer but perhaps others will chime in. When I carry appendix or even pocket for rides I remove the pistol and have a holster that I place the firearm into for the drive. Holster stays put in the car. Then I have to shift it back when I get out of the car. pocket carry is easier since it stays in a stiff holster that I transition back and forth. It is a hassle, but I can get to the firearm easier if I need to draw from the vehicle. However, this moving the firearm around is a hassle. I'm sure there are better ways to do it, but this works for me so far.
