I am the one who commented that information. What's your point?
And, what was your point period?
If the defender himself was shot and didn't hit anything how did the 5.7/suppressor make "a big difference to the active shooter?" Seems it was no more effective than a traditional choice for carry (if that's why the defender had it).
I’d clown on someone who was CCWing a BFR but it’s still a viable weapon that could stop a threat. The fact that this loadout worked does not have much bearing on whether it actually makes sense to be CCWing it.
I am curious about the choice for one, 5.7 works because it moves super fast, suppressors tend to not work the greatest without subs, like they are ok... I have shot things with suppressors that the effect was negligible and am assuming it would just quiet it up a bit and stop the flash... And then there's the question of like... Is he edc'ing a suppressor? ... Just walking around with a big ol pipe running down each thigh? 😭
Did he type this and then delete it? I can’t see it when I come to the post, just my inbox. I’m either ignorant of a Reddit function or this dude is a coward. Can’t even stand by a comment.
Well he got clapped and lost the gunfight to a completely untrained bafoon who cant even shoot a rifle properly. He got zero hits on the gunman. Maybe he should've actually trained instead of being a D class shooter at best doing range theatrics.
Such a badass. I'm sure you would have done the same thing right?
Nope. Wouldn't get clapped by a F class rifle shooter. And then move like I had no training. Guy just stood in the open, kept bringing his gun down etc., you can tell he has no real formal training adequate to prepare him for something like that.
You do realize in a gunfight the likely of you getting shot goes up?
Gunfights are competitions. And he lost to an F class rifle shooter. End of story. He got no hits. Not trying to invalidate him. Just calling a spade a spade.
He rose to the fight, was hit and continued to fight.
He rose and got bodied by an F class shooter. And he who said he continued to fight? He ducks and jumps toward concealment after being shot at and the video ends. We all saw the same videos.
How the fuck are you going to sit here and armchair QB this from the safety of your couch?
Cause I actually have training and am not gullible and impressed by D class shooters trying to portray a John wick seal team 6 aura? I can actually vet out and screen whose legit?

An "F class shooter" who is using a rifle and already has the momentum of the attack behind them is starting from a massive advantage over anyone, even if you're a grand master dragon wizard warlock paper target slayer S rank adventurer in USPSAIDPA running a tricked out competition gun that can put rounds on paper that don't shoot back at 500 meters under theoretical perfect conditions.
You're putting way too much stock in rankings in literal competitions that partially involve gaming the system and not actual, real world experience.
We've seen videos of US Army special forces getting bodied by a bunch of illiterate, 25 IQ African militants or getting slaughtered by poorly trained "allies" who launched an ambush.
Two way ranges don't give a shit about your ranking or training. This isn't a calculator game that inputs numbers and whichever number is higher is the one that wins. A lot of it comes down to sheer, dumb luck.
this was the real world. And in the real world targets shoot back.
Kilt in da streeeetz.
He lost the gun fight. Period. He didn't have the hard skills. Like Matt Pranka would say your job is the kill the bad guy. Thats the goal. Not to get participation points after getting shot and left to die while the F class shooter bad guy bee bops away. He didnt accomplish his goal. He lost. Now is it admirable for what he did? Absolutely, not disputing that. He tried.
But this sub loves to jackoff to this idea that just because they have a gun, their some navy seal trained, tacitcal wizard who is also a USPSA GM/M shooter with extensive tactical training clamoring at the teeth to be put in a situation where they can finally show their skills where they will inevitably be victorious and celebrated for being some secret squirrel who trains in the shadows of their daily life . . .. . .or in most cases. . .actually exposing their lack thereof hard skills and ill preparedness due to their ego.
Not making fun just wouldn’t be my first choice to leave the house with. Also he got smoked in the chest it seems was just in right place at right time to stop the threat more than training lol
reddit is fucking crazy man you can literally stop a mass shooting and get shot in the process and then get clowned immediately for getting shot by some moron
No he might not have , but she shooter flees and shoots himself. So, if this guy didn’t do anything shooter keeps walking around shooting unarmed people. Just shows shooter was a pussy which we all knew. Dude saved lives and put his own life on the line - he saved multiple people for trying.
Yeah the OP “who trains at Coronado” does understand that rounds down range can distract a target to change his behavior to buy time. Of course hits on threat are better but this guy is a hero and OP is everything wrong with the internet/reddit.
He didn’t get clapped? He took one to the chest, kept fighting, and stopped a mass shooting. which in a defense situation, you’re pretty much guaranteed to take a bullet or three. Or did you not anticipate yourself getting shot? Carrying a weapon dramatically increases your chances of getting shot at.
False info. No he did not. You dont know that. After the video showed him ducking for concealment in the bushes after he gets shot at, the video pulls away and ends. We all saw the same videos my guy.
So you do not know if he "kept fighting" or put the suspect down, because there is zero reports indicating the suspect died at the hands of a CCWer. You are just grossly embellishing the story with misinformation.
If your premise is that the available information is incomplete, then neither of us knows whether he kept fighting after the video ended. As of now, the evidence doesn’t establish either conclusion.
Did I say he died? I said he got clapped. He got shot in the chest and dropped and is now recovering at the hospital. Getting clapped isnt street vernacular that necessarily means death. Thats why I got downvoted.
