Episode 043: Building the Hard-to-Kill Human; Stage 2- Weapons Training

Today we begin our top-10 countdown of skills to make yourself hard to kill. We begin with a skill that almost didn’t make the list: weapons. We discuss it simply because it’s always at the top of everyone’s mind when it comes to the idea of being “hard to kill,” but keep in mind that any use of weapons should be the last and smallest piece of the puzzle when it comes to your own personal safety. We’re not just talking about firearms either; for many people and many situations, the ideal weapon may be pepper spray, or even your own two hands. As always, though, situational awareness and sound decision-making will keep you much safer than any weapon. For those of you who are still itching to talk about firearms though, I do answer the question of what I believe to be the best home-defense weapon. You’re going to have to listen to the episode to find out what that is though.
