Five Things to Have for Concealed Carry.

I heard that Paul sleeps with a pillow under his gun.

"I could bore you for an hour with anecdotes" ? Not a chance. We would all sit in rapt attention as long as you wanted to talk. You are a superb teacher.

viewing public: Paul's videos are based Paul: *based on what*

"Shoot with your phone and take a selfie with your gun." Gives a whole new meaning to the old advertising campaign of the point and shoot camera.

I love how Paul throws all his friends under the bus in every video so that we can learn from the anecdotes

A newly hired employee where I work, who represented himself as a gun enthusiast, turned me into the police after I was just 'showing' him the guns that I carry. He obviously wanted to get me fired, so he told police I assaulted him with the guns by pointing them at him (not true). Cost me a year probation and about 10k in fines and lawyer's fees, luckily didn't get jail time. Trust no one !

I respect this guy’s humility. Says a lot about a man.

"Whoever calls the cops first wins." My dad told me that back in the 1960's - and yes, we had phones back then, although carrier pigeon was perhaps more reliable - it was true then, and nothing has changed.

I've watched like 12 videos of his so far and I haven't noticed a "speech impediment" yet.... you're too hard on yourself man!

The race to call 9-1-1: As a child, I would race my sister home from school so I could tell my mother MY version of events. (Due to credibility issues, it never worked.)

Going to miss this guy. Who else is watching his back catalogue?

Young Harell carried mace as a child and I find that amazing

I was stoped by two police officers, one was talking to the other person who stated I pulled a gun on her. I asked the one officer who was talking to me, to ask the other officer who was questioning the woman "What color was my gun?". He radioed back that it was 'Sliver Looking', mine was 'Black & Red' it was a cordless drill that I was in the process of putting it in the back seat of my truck.

I never knew about the "race to call 911", but it makes perfect sense. Why haven't all the tacticool experts told me about this before? Thanks for the information!

I personally would very much like to see a presentation about the aftermath of a citizen involved shooting that covers calling 911, documenting the scene, and interacting with first responders in depth. I feel like the subject doesn't get enough attention during discussions about personal protection/concealed carry, and I'd like to hear Paul's take on it based on his experiences.

6:45 >be me >mugger comes up and asks for my wallet >unload my FN on him >mfw giving him my wallet would have been cheaper

As a 911 dispatcher I only ask: once you call me, talk to ME. Don't keep arguing with the other person. Don't tell your story to everyone who shows up. Talk to ME. I need information in the order I ask it. If I am sending officers then I need to know who's who and what's happening so officers know what to look for as they come flying in full of adrenaline. Also, Know where you are! Don't assume technology will work or that we have a crystal ball. Be safe out there. Edit: and remember - every call is recorded, so consider how your call will sound to a jury.

The phone call to the police it's a must! There was this time I was at this neighborhood representative election meeting, and this guy lost, against the guy I was backing. Well, things turned ugly, and I decided to leave. The guy that lost came after me with his son and wife screaming and yelling saying everything they could to pick a fight. But, since I'm a mixed martial artist, and in pretty good shape( the guy that lost the election, is like 70 years old). I remained calm and just kept walking. Then I heard the guy telling his 18 year old kid to hit me, at that moment I turned around and his lady bounce off my chest. I raised my open hands and told the kid if he try anything I would hurt him. At that time they froze and back down. So I kept walking and got to my house. Then I took my phone and call the police to make a complaint about harrassment, they took down the information and I sat down to watch tv. 20 minutes later a police car show up. And I open the door and said, finally what took you so long. The cop looked at me confused and told me that they came to bring a citation since my neighbor had made a complaint against me, because I just had assaulted his wife. Well, it took me a lawyer, Four hundred bucks and a day in court to get the stupid charge dismissed... Definitely make that call as soon as possible, even take video if you can...

He is such a "reality check". I would listen to his common-sense dialog just to stay grounded in reality regardless of topic. Youtube needs more like him!
