Constantine's post reminds me of Jeff Cooper's comment about carrying a lot of ammo. Do so if you plan on missing a lot.
This is an incredibly broken perspective.

1. False implication that the number of rounds you carry dictates or drives your approach to shooting.

2. False implied link between skilled shooters and an intentional choice to carry fewer rounds.

3. Implies an assumption that an attacker will always be physiologically stopped within a set number of rounds, with that set number being whatever you happen to hit with.

4. Extends the assumption about ability to stop within a finite number of rounds to include multiple attacker events, OR ignores these situations entirely.


The statement is akin to saying, "buy a car with built in crumple zones, side air bags, rear multi-point safety belts, and 5 star crash test ratings if you plan on causing a lot of accidents."
