I don’t know about others but if a guy punched me in the top of my hard head, he would break every bone in his hand and it wouldn’t even phase me.

If the punch misses I am going to get off as many shots as I can before he hits the ground. Any of his “buds” move toward me, I carry two spare mags.
I don’t think I need to worry too much though. When I retired we moved from Houston to a very small town in South Texas.
