[QUOTE="nofearfactor, post: 2699100, member: 1535"] I think there are alot of people with CC permits carrying a gun-concealed or open- every day then who have taken the CC class and maybe even other classes too but still may have other questions about what to do with that gun while OPEN CARRYING during a bad situation- a robber holding up people or places in public, etc etc. There wasnt legal open carry yet when I took my first CC class so there are things about it I just dont know anything about. I dont OC anyways so this is all just pure curiosity for me as I dont plan on OCing in the future either. I only got to this place by stating Im wearing a shoulder holster sometimes this winter and about taking my coat off around people and finding myself pretty much open carrying at that point. You say they should take advanced training, I totally agree. Where are classes held for advanced training? Where are the best places to take such advanced classes? I think when the police tell people on TV during or at the end of their segments to always NOT try and take the law into your own hands, its for a good reason. But my curiosity here has more to do with scenarios when carrying open that involve you or you being targeted for carrying open and what to do. I slightly remember and may even be wrong on a few details of an incident in public during the day some years ago where this guy was in line to get checked out at the Homeland on 91st and south Memorial when 2 masked robbers came in in broad daylight to rob the office. They beat one of the managers within earshot of people and then they came out and began telling every one to get on the ground, only the guy with the concealed gun didnt, he pulled his gun and shot one of them and then held his gun on the other til the cops showed up. Later it was all over the news with a lot of people calling the guy a 'hero'. I may have been a member here when it happened so it maybe wasnt more than 8 years ago. I also kind of remember some details of another incident at like Batmans convenience store or some store in Nth Tulsa where a bad guy comes in the store and recognizes an off duty county or some other type of LEO who had arrested him before and he pulls his gun but the good guy got the draw on him and shot him instead. Middle of the afternoon public incident with other people around in the line of fire. The only reason I brought this up was just being curious about what do you do when youre 'open' carrying and an incident in public goes down especially involving you. (I pretty much already know what Im going to do if Im carrying concealed, and something goes down in public). I get the advanced training advice, as well as lots of shooting practice so you hit what youre supposed to hit when or if you do have to return fire for whatever reason. But I am still curious about what to do if they do shoot you, or at you, and how should you respond when getting shot at while carrying open? Especially those of us with no military or law enforcement training or have had no other type of tactical style training. I will be looking into getting me some tactical training soon so thanx for the advice on more training. [/QUOTE]
