Re: LEO marked mags and a self defence shooting

I read an article written by Ayoob in GUNS&AMMO (special addition dedicated to self-defense) recently. Ayoob basically said that every choice you make about your carry piece needs to be defensible…everything from the gun itself to the ammo used and etc. He cited several cases where people were convicted, in otherwise justifiable shootings, because a lawyer (probably not a good one) could not defend the use of 10mm cartridge or something similarly stupid.

In the case of using the 10mm cartridge the prosecutor convinced a jury that the 10mm cartridge was simply overkill and designed to kill and not to stop. The defendants lawyer did not defend the use of the 10mm properly and the guys was convicted.

I’m not saying that you can’t or should not use LEO marked mags…I’m just saying, make sure you and your lawyer can defend the choice to use it.
