Frequently Asked Questions

What are the main legal risks for innocent gun owners?

Innocent gun owners face risks from misapplying the 'force on force' principle, choosing ammunition prosecutors might deem excessive (like 'gimmick' rounds or high-power calibers), and ignorance of strict local ordinances that differ from state laws.

How can ammunition choice lead to legal trouble for a gun owner?

Prosecutors can use specific ammunition marketing names (e.g., 'Zombie Killer') or powerful calibers (.40 S&W, .357 Magnum) to argue that the gun owner intended excessive harm, rather than just self-defense, potentially leading to prison time.

Why is understanding local gun laws crucial for concealed carriers?

Laws vary significantly between federal, state, county, and city levels. Cities often have much stricter regulations than rural areas, and ignorance of these specific local ordinances can result in unintentional legal violations and severe penalties.

What is the 'force on force' principle in self-defense?

The 'force on force' principle states that you can only legally use lethal force if you reasonably fear for your life or serious bodily harm. You cannot use lethal force against non-lethal force like a punch or shove unless the situation escalates to a life-threatening level.
