Bob..Your heart is in the right place and I am positive any of the fellows I associate with would do exactly as you say..I am just saying it's not necessarily a good plan. Something you might do on the spur of the moment in the heat of battle but these things rarely present themselves. When they do brave people do what they can with what they have to be sure. One other thing..
I live across the street from an elementary school. You Sir.. are in a "gun free zone" 5 years in the grey bar hotel. Kick out the fire and hide!

Assault is a kind of behavior, not a kind of hardware.
• It's always better to avoid a gunfight than to win one.
• It's always better to win one than to lose one.
• If innocent life doesn't immediately depend on it, don't shoot.
• And if it does, don't miss.
Before you drop the hammer, remember:
You will write a check for your life savings to your lawyer.
Don't do that unless your life depends on it.
