In a panic situation even trained professionals sometimes freeze up.
It happens fast, catches you off guard, adrenaline rush kicks in. I've seen people actually forget to breathe. No joke.
Now if your wife or daughter finds herself in that panic mode, what would you rather give her?
A DA revolver or a Glock?
I know my answer.

I hate making a good first impression. There’s no way I can keep that shit up.
