I have been in two situations when me drawing my weapon was sufficient to de-escalate a situation without having to shoot. Thinking that one has to shoot if they pull their gun or should only pull their gun at the vary last second and then shoot is not wise. Most all the time it is better to end a situation without shooting if possible.MaduroBU wrote: ↑Wed Nov 14, 2018 2:50 am I think that you made the worst possible decision and got lucky. I'm glad that it worked out that way for you, but most of the scenarios don't end that well. Few if any de-escalation tactics begin with "Visibly threaten the other party's life." If there isn't an immediate need to fire your weapon, I strongly believe in leaving it holstered and hopefully invisible.
