Last week I shared a news video with you about a barber shop robbery<\/a> that ended abruptly and favorably when one of the patrons in the shop fired his concealed weapon from under the smock that was placed on him to cut his hair. <\/p>\n

I shared the story as an example of why you should carry your weapon EVERYWHERE.<\/p>\n

This prompted numerous inquiries as to whether the properly armed and accurate citizen was a student of Front Sight. I also received even more inquiries as to how many times our students have been in gunfights and what have been the outcomes?<\/p>\n

For reasons pertaining to the protection of privacy and issues with civil liability that anyone who is involved in a shooting may face, we do not divulge such information. <\/p>\n

However, I can tell you that after training over 300,000 students, Front Sight students do defend themselves regularly in lethal encounters. <\/p>\n

I am also pleased to tell you that they have won 100% of the lethal encounters they have been involved in. <\/p>\n

I am even more pleased to tell you that not one Front Sight student who defended himself in a lethal encounter has ever been charged for any criminal action associated with defending himself.<\/p>\n

I am even more pleased to tell you that of the numerous reports I have received where a Front Sight student had no choice but to use a weapon to defend himself and loved ones against immediate threat of serious bodily injury or death, I have 10 times the reports of Front Sight students stopping a lethal encounter without ever firing a shot simply because of the command presence and gun handling they acquired at Front Sight.<\/p>\n

And I am even more pleased to tell you that I must have thousands<\/strong> of reports where Front Sight students avoided a conflict completely, without ever having to present a weapon, by using the skills we teach them through our Color Code of Mental Awareness lecture, because the best gunfight is the one you avoid!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lethal encounters can and do happen to good, responsible, law abiding citizens every day. Those who are armed and trained <\/strong>win. Those who are not armed are at a great disadvantage. Those who are armed, but have no formal training, are still at a serious disadvantage against a seasoned criminal.<\/p>\n
