Thread: Practice your head shots.

  1. #1

    Practice your head shots.

    4 man home invasion with at least one of the perps wearing body armor. Full article here.

    The gentleman that did get shot and was killed was wearing body armor,” Martin said. “That is a trend we are starting to see. The bad guys go in to do a robbery or home invasion and they have their body armor on."
    Have a happy and safe 2012.

    No kidding.

    The more I think about it the more I think a suppressed SBR is the ultimate home defence long arm.

    Hard to argue with that logic.

    Yeah, if you can swing it that's the way to go. More intuitive for untrained people with an aimpoint on there as well.

    If only there was some sort of internet site that advocated shooting at low probability targets with surgical precision......

    Depending on the level of armor, having a few mags of M855 (if you're running a carbine) on tap might not be a bad idea.

    I'm curious is the perps were donning soft armor or plates...

    Turns out, this was drug related. The homeowner is now up on charges:

    I'd be curious to know if the sheriff meant that the trend in body armor usage was specific to drug-related stuff, or overall robberies/home invasions.
