(hand to hand) b/c guns kill people if somebody breaks into my house and starts coming up the stairs at me and or my family. i WILL pull the trigger… hand to hand combat is retarded in a situation like that… you dont know if the other guy has a guy/knife etc… you want me to go charging/yelling down a hall/down stairs at an intruder with a guy who possibly came into my house specifically to kill me/my family… (a stretch, but home invasions do happen) i hope to god i never have to fire my gun at somebody but if i do 3 shots center mass… figure everything out afterwards --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/obtaining-a-pistol-permit-in-erie-county/51791)._
