Wherever it happens, take the first punch then draw down on his ass. You'll have physical evidence of an assault and justification for lethal force if necessary. Flame suit on. :fawk:
I always have one I can get to if needed. If someone is at the door and I don't know them, the door gets opened with my left hand because my right hand is full.
It'll either spend an eternity in evidence before it's destroyed or end up in some cop's personal collection. Good thread. Good to know I made the correct choice of having my S&W 642 w/Crimson Trace grips as my night stand gun.
Oh can't you just hear his momma's cries in his behalf. "Not my baby, he wouldn't do dat"! Where was she? Probably giving some dude a hummer for a crack rock.
You're welcome.
What's probably demeaning is a domestic call where they realize they've gone to this residence time after time for the same tired scenario where the combined household IQ is 80.
Careful of nose bleed up there on your high horse. For the record, I have to date not broken this law. Then again, you don't know me so prove me wrong.
Welcome to the dark side! As an owner of a Gen 3 G23, so far I haven't encountered anything negative about this firearm. As far as the quirks you've experienced on the earlier models, can you point out the refinements of your Gen 4 as compared to the Gen 3?

The state boys seem to be more acclimated to the idea of open carry and the rights to do so. It's the city and parish LEO's whose administration may or may not school them as well on the issue. I certainly do not intend to slam any law enforcement agency or officer, this is just my take on...
