    Also note that he was able to fight back against multiple opponents with drawn guns. Let that sink in.

    "After a while he remembered he was also carrying a gun."

    LOL!

    Well done to the guard!

    Well don't that man!

    Big lessons in this event. You will likely be outnumbered, outgunned and taken by surprise. But you can still win if you fight back.

    If taken by surprise, you're going to have to wait for a suitable opportunity to draw, just like 1911NuffSaid. The key is concealment and not being patted down.

    Well done to this guard. 2.5 criminals down.

    I would like to know what gun he had and what ammo he used. Obviously it was very effective since he was not shot back at. They basically had to drop in their tracks. I love these stories. Those guys could have killed their next prey.

    Interesting that the Police Commissioner said that they opened an Inquest Docket. Normally they open a murder docket.

    Or perhaps they were just taken by surprise and never managed to get an accurate shot at him?

    I bet you it was a cheap 9mm loaded with 9mm ball.

    Hardware is fun to discuss and dwell in. Mindset , skill and tactics win fights far more convincingly than cool guy gear.

    A Murder Docket, is by definition, an Inquest Docket.

    'Inquest' by definition, means 'investigate, or look into' a matter. Which is exactly what a Murder Docket is. An inquest docket specific to a murder investigation.

    This is the most likely scenario.
