I figure if you're in trouble because you killed somebody or caused great bodily damage....at least you are STILL ALIVE.....just get a freakin' lawyer....
.....think of your kids....and ex-wives!! etc..... |

I never knew my Zero Tolerance was considered a semi auto. I do know I can deploy it very quickly though. Are semi autos considered to be an automatic as far as the law is concerned?

Wow..... I wouldn't last 5 seconds in a real ambush. I rarely carry and that prolly won't change unless I have time to plan for training..... which prolly isn't gonna happen, but it might. I realize I am not really prepared for "sh*t to hit the fan" today, tomorrow or next week. next month is a longshot. Eye opening info here.... will take a bit of time to sort it. I have actually thought of immobilizing someone's primary arm, but hadn't thought what I would do if someone immobilized mine! So thanks for that RC....

Very nicely put, Jeff.
Do you mind if I copy it over to my website? I would like to preserve the right up in an easily accessible place. Isolating and immobilizing the strong is a really common concept in kali and combined with appropriate zoning, it is very effective. I can shoot and use knives with somewhat similar dexterity with both hands and use both regularly. Once one of your arms is immobilized, you get a real appreciation for footwork. I recall our teacher used to beat us with a staff with both of our arms immobilized. It did wonders for our footwork. ILya

There are ommissions and parts that need more detail, but it is a start.
Legally speaking, the difference between semi-auto and automatic is huge. Laws differ greatly, so know your local laws, but semi-auto is seldom a problem, unless damn near everything is illegal.
