Considering close protection is not technically legal where I live (Italy) having a fixed job might be a bit tricky... I freelance exclusively, but always with the same people/agencies.

No, you can't. He might just be into LOTR, or Klingon stuff...

I managed to dredge this up while doing some research. I've personally spoken to Chris and Rich several times, I even own Rich's book and have considered training with Chris on several occasions (unfortunately didn't pan out due to financial and distance reasons). Both are some of the most...

Time to upgrade your suntan lotion.

Scumbags indeed. Let's hope someone finds them.

You hit some of the points here. No idea whether the guy was armed. No weapon was pointed. And I'm hearing people talking about escalation and then that I was 20 paces away, obviously to help prevent things from escalating and reduce risk. Also I don't get the shitting on doorstep thing...

Copy that. Although he was already at the bottom of the stairs :) As far as identifying myself, I walk in and out in what is pretty close to full battle rattle once a week (I own an outdoor range). Remains to be seen how aforementioned prick takes it. I have not heard a peep since so...

Again, just to clarify, this was not even a low-ready situation. and with 1.5 flights of stairs in between us so there was no rushing scenario here. Considering the cops don't bat an eye when I walk around town with my AR15 I hardly think this was jail worthy. They're quite used to seeing me...

Pulling or pointing. Sorry I should have been more specific. I did not point. Like I said I was not even chambered. It was a show of force to make the guy think twice about beating his wife. Turns out he'd been slapping her around the place for the better part of 90 minutes, no cops came. They...

I got to draw on some douchebag wifebeater in my building's staircase.

Let me preface this by saying that I live in a really crap part of Milan that looks more like Beirut (in the right-after-a-war state) than Italy. Down to most of the signs being in Arabic and hardly ever seeing an actual Italian. The building I live in in particular is pretty run down and many...

Hah! I think Kerosene doesn't vaporize fast enough to not go down the building, I think no aluminium fuselage could possibly go through tons of steel of concrete and come out intact on the other side of the building, I think if a floor has temperatures 2x higher than the theoretical maximum for...

lol, only 4 months late on this post.

With my shooting philosophy, I'm not even sure 22lr is fit for training. I'm a huge fan of 22lr for a bunch of applications actually and I usually take crap for it, but it is NOT a substitute for training on a 5.56 platform. They are different animals. Delivering fast accurate fire on an...
