Hey guys I wanted to know if any of you practice shouting verbal commands when you practice your weapon draws.
I heard its a good thing to do to know what to say in case you ever have to draw your gun to defend yourself.In many cases just drawing your gun and shouting verbal comments at your threat may be enough to end the situation without having to fire a single shot.
I have a few questions:
The first one is have you ever had to draw your gun to end a dangerous situation without having to fire a shot?
The second one is what kind of commands would you practice or use in a real situation?
Im asking that because I am a non-native english speaker, so I thought it would be even more important for me to practice verbal command because with the stress of a real situation I may forget what to say and shout orders in my native language.
That may scare the bad guy anyway but im not sure he/she will understand what im saying.
It reminds me of a quote by Clint Smith:
"You can say 'stop' or 'alto' or use any other word you think will work but I've found that a large bore muzzle pointed at someone's head is pretty much the universal language."
I need your help on that, would you say things along "stop, back off!", "get back!" or even maybe "make my day punk!"?
I need a simple phrase who would work for any kind of situation.
Thanks for your help guys!
