Concealed Carry: Are back-up guns for civilians a good idea?

 Broken hammer on custom 1911.

For the over ten years, Craig Harper has been a staff instructor at Rangemaster.

He is highly trained, having taken courses from a number of the best firearms instructors in the US. He also has experience as a Military Policeman in the US Army.

A few days ago, Craig and I were discussing a recent incident in which a police officer was killed. The officer was shot in his dominant arm (right handed officer, shot in right arm).

Although conscious and trying to fight back, he was unable to reload his empty handgun with his non- dominant hand only, and was executed by his assailant.

    Depends on where you're going. In places like Washington D.C., heck yes. In places like Chicago or NYC, yes. In places like N.C., not so much. :)
