should have a white-light capability and the ability to mount an Aimpoint dot or some kind of sight if required/ needed for personal eyesight issues.

plan and train. The more you plan and the more you train, the less likely you are to ever use your plan or your training. Prior planning and training preempts many problems you might need to address; however, gunfights never come out the way we think they will, and most plans need to be flexi- ble to change when they are being put into action. Stopwatches for timing will not be present and tight groups won’t win gunfights. Usually vol- umes of suppressive fire inside your house could be a bit much for your family to deal with, they’ll get over it, but be sure not to injure people on “your side.” So then, guns, planning and train-
ing are things comparable to a spare tire in your car — you may never use it, but it sure is nice to have on board … if you ever do need it. *
