Frequently Asked Questions

What is the most common legal mistake innocent gun owners make regarding self-defense?

A significant legal pitfall is failing to match force with equal force. You cannot legally use lethal force against non-lethal force, like a punch or shove, unless you genuinely fear for your life due to circumstances like being outnumbered or facing a weapon.

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

Prosecutors may use 'gimmick' ammunition names (e.g., 'Zombie Killer') or high-power calibers (.40 S&W, .357 Magnum) to argue that the gun owner intended to cause excessive damage rather than merely defend themselves, potentially leading to legal charges.

Why is understanding local ordinances crucial for gun owners?

Laws vary drastically at federal, state, county, and city levels. Ignorance of specific local ordinances, especially in urban areas like Philadelphia or St. Louis, can result in severe legal consequences for even lawful gun owners.
