I just realized that I must sound like a Rambo-type by making this statement. I hope everyone realizes what I'm trying to say.jnkirk1974 wrote:Handcuffs sound like a lawsuit waiting to happen. Your handgun being pulled states that you are in fear of losing your life and you are protected for using it.
Handcuffs state that you were no longer in danger and were detaining someone (you must put your gun away to use them).
This goes back to my theory......don't ever pull your gun unless you plan to use it. When you DO use it, use it to it's maximum potential so they cannot testify
against you. Using handcuffs will pretty much guarantee you a lawsuit, because you have ultimately saved the person and given them the opportunity to live
and testify against you.
Hold them at gunpoint, shoot 'em or don't pull your gun at all. Handcuffs are a bad idea.
