BUG Art Back Up Gun Strategies for the LE Professional – Mike Boyle
In a lethal encounter, ready access to a backup gun can mean the difference between life and death. Officers may fall victim to a disarm, and even the best handguns can suffer a catastrophic failure or otherwise be disabled. Going to Plan “B”, and continuing to fight, gives the officer the means to prevail against overwhelming odds. Many officers routinely carry a backup, but few train under realistic conditions.
