I Faced It Twice: What Two Armed Self-Defense Encounters Taught Me

There are plenty of videos telling you how to defend yourself with a firearm. Plenty of comments from people explaining what they would do if they were ever in that situation. This isn’t one of those videos. In this video, I share two real-life armed self-defense encounters I experienced years apart. Fortunately, no shots were fired and everyone walked away alive. But those moments changed the way I think about carrying a firearm, training, risk assessment, family preparedness, and the lasting consequences that come with choosing to defend yourself. I’m not an expert, instructor, or self-defense guru. I’m just an old man sharing thoughts and opinions based on experiences I wish I’d never had. If you choose to carry a firearm, I believe you owe it to yourself and your family to think beyond the moment you pull the trigger. The legal, emotional, financial, and family consequences can last a lifetime. Hopefully, my experiences give you something to think about.
