S3 or BF272. Whichever you can get cheaper. They have more ultimate flow potential than s2's do. By a considerable margin, as well.

But hey, what do I know...you might be some Special forces or Swat team member

PS: im really not trying to ruffle your feathers, but in my brief LE and MIL career, even i know that a shootout in a crowed theater would cause more harm than good...thats all man, enjoy your CCW
Don't worry, no one is ruffled up over here, but your initial comment came off very aggressive . lol, simply stated "it would of been a different story." Hell who knows the story could of been ccw carrier tries to take down gunman and was shot and killed. I would rather die trying than die for nothing. How DARK is a theater anyway with the movie playing, and ya people were probably running around, and probably the ones that got hit.

What you mean a shootout in the theater would cause more harm than good? it was already a shootout, or should I say massacre. You may have seen tough guys, **** their pants, but normal guys do amazing things all the time too so your comparison isnt valid. btw where and what were you doing when you seen these guys if I may ask?

quick statistic for you, police officers usually shoot 95%+ accuracy for qualifying, and in real world situations it is about 14%.

Look at this gangsta 72 yr old "stone cold killa"

you dont know what people will do until it happens, but your opinions are noted.

P.S. hit me up, I'll show you how to hit a 25 and 40 meter silhouette.

Unless of course, you're packing a .50 cal.

when you carry, you always have it in the back of your mind, some people may react, others may hide in the crowd and pray and hope god answers your prayer.

Expected or not expected, around 70 people injured and 12 dead... I'm not saying no one would of got injured or died, but if there WERE people who were carrying in there, it could have been a different story.

Don't put us who prepare in the same category as you.
I agree with what he said. Most carriers pray to not have to use it, but when the time comes...and at that theater, that was the time to use it.

put on protective gear and lets go test , jokes aside, no one wants to use what they have. I have nothing against johnny as I'm sure he has nothing against me, its just personal views and opinions.

I was going to volunteer to go to the box, only thing that stopped me was a woman. It wasn't even the woman that I am with now

must of sucked in the box, glad you made it back safe. A very good friend of mine went 2 yrs to the sand box and came back safe as you did, only to get gunned down by an assault rifle on duty in pahrump not even a week back.

exactly man, nothing personal at all. I think all Americans should carry....that particular theater situation is just bad news for everyone involved.

really sucks to hear about your friend

if he had an AR, 2 glocks, body armor, tear gas ect and only got 12 people in a crowded dark movie theater i think someone could have taken him out pretty easy if they were armed. the guy didnt seem to be too well trained

some bullets can penetrate body armor. as long as the muzzle and terminal velocity exceeds the rated protection of the armor, doesnt even matter if it has coatings, be it kevlar or something else, or not.
