Good Guy with a Shotgun & Be Harder to Kill

We consider yet again the importance of being dangerous on demand. During our SOTG Homeroom from www.SOTGU.com, this time it was a Las Vegas Good Guy who was called upon to stop a maniac from killing innocent people.

“Strong people are harder to kill and more useful in general.” So Matt Reynolds, founder of Barbell Logic Online Coaching has said. Recently Matt delivered a motivational talk at the Tactical Response Alumni Weekend. We are going to share that with you.

As usual, we have a Tech Talk from EOTech Inc, a Froglube ProTip and much more. Tune in and listen louder.

Thanks for being a part of SOTG! We hope you find value in the message we share. If you’ve got any questions, here are some options to contact us:

Enjoy the show! And remember…
You’re a Beginner Once, a Student For Life!

Not long ago, I began a review by stating, “It’s a strange thing to live long enough to see something that was once commonplace become…unique.” Yet here again I find myself preparing to tell a story about a gun that in my youth was so commonplace that no one really needed to explain its history or significance. When I started writing firearms-related articles in the early 1990’s you didn’t need to spend time telling the story of the Browning Hi-Power, AKA the P35. The majority of gun people already knew it.

Now, thirty years or so later — wow, have I been writing that long? — we have an entire generation, maybe two, who weren’t raised on the old WWII or Cold War guns. Some of those people confuse the term Hi-Power with Hi-Point. About a year ago, my friend Nicholas Orr wrote a book discussing the historical significance of many small arms used during the last century and a half; A Pipe Hitters Guide to Small Arms & Weapons. With Mr. Orr’s permission, I’ve pulled an excerpt from that book.

Sometimes it takes a good guy with a gun to take out someone intent on doing people harm. Such is the case in Las Vegas where a Good Samaritan did just that, likely preventing a man from killing a number of people.

Las Vegas Metro police said that a man, who was not identified, showed up for his job with a home remodeling firm and was declared “unfit” to work. He was subsequently fired by his employer. That led the man to go on an unhinged rampage, with him getting into his SUV and driving recklessly down the street, RVM News reported. Some residents who were out on the streets and sidewalks had to dive out of harm’s way.

One resident told reporters about the incident.

“He was trying to hit somebody, and it was either going to be me or the kid or whoever’s standing in that road,” said Richard Osayna.

However, the incident was not without victims. Two men were struck by the suspect’s SUV, including his now-former boss, with the incident happening in Osayna’s driveway.
