Rules For Wining Gunfights
Stars and Bars
"All skill is in vain when an Angel pisses in the flintlock of your musket."

  1. Bring a gun.
    • One that will work every time.
    • Preferably, bring at least two guns.
    • Bring all of your friends who have guns.
    • See, we are already ahead of the game!


  2. Anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice.
    • Ammo is cheap.
    • Life is expensive.


  3. Only hits count.
    • The only thing worse than a miss is a slow miss.
    • Clean Match shooters RULE!


  4. If your shooting stance is good:
    • you're probably not moving fast enough
    • using cover correctly.


  5. Move away from your attacker.
    • Distance is your friend.
    • Lateral and diagonal movement are preferred.


  6. If you can choose what to bring to a gunfight
    • bring a long gun
    • a friend with a long gun.
    • We bring a long gun AND a shotgun!


  7. In ten years nobody will remember the details
    • of caliber
    • stance
    • tactics.
    • They will only remember who lived.


  8. If you are not shooting
    • you should be communicating (like yelling at the targets),
    • reloading
    • and running.


  9. Accuracy is relative:
    • most combat shooting standards will be more dependent on "pucker factor" than the inherent accuracy of the gun.
    • Use a gun that works EVERY TIME.


  10. Someday someone may kill you with your own gun,
    • but they should have to beat you to death with it because it is empty.


  11. Always cheat, always win.
    • The only unfair fight is the one you lose.


  12. Have a plan.
    • Have a back-up plan, because the first one won't work.


  13. Use cover or concealment as much as possible.

  14. Flank your adversary when possible.
    • Protect yours.


  15. Watch their hands.
    • Hands kill.
    • In God we trust.
    • Everyone else, keep your hands where I can see them.
    • Don't drop your guard.


  16. Decide to be aggressive ENOUGH, quickly ENOUGH.

  17. The faster you finish the fight, the less shot you will get.

  18. Be polite, always.
    • But, have a plan to protect yourself always.


  19. Be courteous to everyone.
    • Careful of those you don't know.


  20. Do not attend a gun fight with a handgun, the caliber of which does not start with a "4" or bigger.

  21. Your number one Option for Personal Security is a lifelong commitment to
    • Avoidance,
    • Deterrence,
    • De-Escalation.
