Still have a couple of spots. Some folks have dropped out. Give it some thought. Especially if you are new to training.

All that you can depend on from a 45 is that it will drill a .45 - .70 inch hole about 14 inches into someone. There will not be "energy dump", people will not fly backwards, and they will not necessarily fall as if they have been struck by lighting. Last edited by GlockConvert : 07-17-2007 at 11:27 PM.
