1). Is your SD gun more than 20 seconds from your reach right now?

Absolutely not.

2) How many dependable rounds of ammo for your SD gun could you gather-up and put into action within the next 5 minutes?

Something in the neighborhood of hundreds, . . . but if I've got 5 minutes, . . . we ain't talking my SD handgun, . . . we're talking serious long gun, . . . serious backup ammo, . . . serious caliber, . . .

3) In your SD's present condition, will it reliably fire 200 rds or more without lubricaton concern? If not, how many rounds would it fire?

I only have one weapon in my "collection" that wouldn't reliably fire 200 or more rounds, . . . it's my knife.

Bonus Question: Would your instructor or shooting partner share the same level of confindence that you have in your answers?

I would assume so, . . . but quite truthfully, . . . I would not care either way.

May God bless,
Dwight
