Amazed by all the concerned forum members who are worried that their comments are making them sound like dicks...

Let's clear shit up right now.

First, the moment people start getting all Politically Correct on 2aHawaii to avoid offending other people's feelings is the moment I unsubscribe. I'd rather hear unfiltered, genuine thoughts and comments and do the filtering myself.

Second, we're all big boys here so if I say something stupid or ask a dumbass question, it is my ardent hope that other forum members will tell me that I just said something stupid, or just asked a dumbass question... BUT THEN HAVE THE BALLS AND THE GRACE TO CORRECT ME OR PROVIDE ME WITH THE ANSWER TO MY DUMBASS QUESTION.  That's how I learn.

Third, it is okay to be a dick every now and then.  If you live your life always concerned about not being a dick to anyone, you end up being... well, dickless.

Finally, no need to try to hide it... we already know that everyone here is pretty much a dick in their own special way!!  The sooner we accept that fact, the sooner we can move on.

Sorry... I hope this post doesn't make me come across as a dick!!   :rofl:
Reminded me of the classic movie "Cool Hand Luke". Now he wasn't dickless for sure. :rofl:

No worries, bruddah bass monkey... your comment was not taken that way.

Just asking because a fella I was talking with had this thought:

Corner with barrel down.

If BG grabs the front of your barrel, you step back, yank barrel and still have the opportunity to get a shot off into BG's lower torso, thigh, leg, foot.

If cornering with barrel up, and if BG grabs barrel, you step back and yank, but target is limited to BG's head.

Again, just throwing this out there for discussion.

A good sling on your shotgun would eliminate the chance that the BG grabs the shotgun and shoot you with it. You can only slice so much pie on a corner especially if its in a hallway. Something or MOUT trainers said was "violence of actions". You need to commit, move deliberatly and aggresively when you round that corner.  Keep the shotgun close and tight to your body compact. You want to retain as much of a shooting stance as possible so you have less movement to make to get your sights lined up to a target.

Or you can do a Biden and shoot two shots before you make your move :thumbsup:

When at home I always have at least my Glock 22 (.40) and once in a while also bring out Glock 17 or 19. I feel a shot gun is to long for homes in Hawaii. Hand gun is just right.

ok then...
I guess that makes sense..
