If I went out looking for bad guys for 8-10 hours a day every workday, I’d be carrying a high capacity autoloader too. And I’d be wearing a helmet.

Could you carry that much ammo?
Why one cop carries 145 rounds: https://youtu.be/pdjcYjSsIok
“Gramins recalls. ‘I tried a couple of ricochet rounds that didn’t connect. Then I told myself, ‘Hey, I need to slow down and aim better.’
When the suspect bent down to peer under the car, Gramins carefully established a sight picture, and squeezed off three controlled bursts in rapid succession.”

Shoot better; what a concept.
Serious question – should more people reconsider the decision to CCW? Not in terms of don’t own guns or lock them up in some crazy fashion. The more the better. I’m thinking more of understand that the gun is not a talisman. It’s a tool to use in a fight with someone. Do you think that many who CCW are walking around with an unrealistic view of the role of that weapon?
It’s actually not a tool to win a fight with, it’s a tool to force a Break In Contact. That may involve fighting but usually does not.
