I was wondering what your guys' opinions would be on where you would shoot your attacker. I know that discharging your firearm is a last resort but if you were in a situation where you felt your life was at risk, where exactly would you aim?
I have yet to take any self defense or firearm courses (although I will be taking a handgun class soon locally) I was wondering if there is any training that teaches you where to shoot an attacker? I know that you are not supposed to shoot to kill, but to incapacitate or stop the threat immediately.
Without any proper training I'm thinking that I would shoot my attacker in the leg and possibly the abdomen. Now, I realize this is a very broad topic because so many different factors can play into the situation, but in general how would you go about defending yourself?
