I really think this is a great topic for PDTV and Guntalktv as well. I communicated this to Tom Gresham. However, maybe he has already addressed it. After observing the training I am convinced that CCW holders need to a) Really think about being in an active shooter situation and b) have wargamed out responses to being in one. I carry a snubbie and so unless the guy was right close I would have to be careful if I took a shot. One thing I wouldn't do is start trying to move around a lot to find or engage the guy. Just my .02 but I would sit tight if alone and go to where my family was if I were with them. Call me a pessimist but I think these shooting are not going away anytime soon. Sad state of affairs but there it is.
