this is false. non-lethal or incapacitating shots aren't taught in rl. gun self defense training teaches you to aim for center mass and shoot until they stop moving. if your life is in danger enough for you to have a gun pulled out, trying to aim for a non-vital part is too risky.when i get my first firearm i'm gonna paint the grip/stock/etc sky blue and paint rainbow dash's cutie mark on it
True, actually. But if you're using a shotgun with buckshot then chances are you're going to hit the whole side of the body you were aiming for, and then some drywall/windows/whatever's behind him to boot.
Also, your life doesn't have to be in much danger:
When people see guns pointed at them, it sparks a battle of psychological warfare. Nobody wants to die or feel a lump of lead rip through a bunch of nerves all in a split second, therefore could scare the trespasser away.
I suppose that's for mugger-type bandits, though.. not home raiders.
