Thanks Excaliber, I just ordered the book, On Combat, from Amazon. The price was $14.90 plus shipping, for anyone else interested in buying it.

You are right; the questions I posed are very complex. Hopefully, people will take as much space as they need to share their experiences. Thoughts from the common CHL holder will be of great value I think. The experiences that Col. Grossman shares will be incredible learning tools for all of us.

I know this is a sensitive subject, but most of us have never been in these situations. For those of you that have drawn your firearm, what were your feelings just prior to, and for awhile, afterwards? And for those of you who have actually fired your weapon, how was it coping with the aftermath? Not litigation-wise, but more the mental side. Last week I talked about this with a Dallas LEO, and we discussed how they get the training for the mental aspect of firing their weapons, both pre and post, and the consequences of having done so, and we both wondered how a CHL holder would handle it.

I expect that many, if not all, of you who have fired your weapons might be hesitant to talk about it in this forum, but anything that could be shared might benefit the entire membership.
