Thanks, Diablo. I know Goff, but I’ve never read him on Cooper, and I couldn’t find it. I’m betting it wasn’t complimentary, which reminds me that I need to post something about my sources sometime soon. Almost nobody I’m reading about guns and self defense for this project are people I have any other agreement with besides guns, as so few on the left, even the hard left, have written about the technical side of the subject.

And, please, chime in often.

Good news Ben; btw I attempted to leave a comment on your latest entry (Coopers rules) but could not due to some nebulous error. To wit:

I’d only add an augmentation to the fourth rule: “…always be sure of your target… [and beyond]“. Or as Pacino says in Michael Mann’s near perfect heist film, Heat, “watch your background”.

Using an M-4 or AK47 for self-defense in the casa makes this especially pertinent as those high velocity (2500fps) rounds will hit their target, exit said target, enter the wall behind it, exit said wall and then hit whatever the fuck is behind it (e.g., your wife, dog, signed copy of Hunter S. thompson’s, Hell’s Angels, et.al.).

Also, I have a new (impoverished) entry on my long neglected website; you may enjoy it. Have you heard Sgt. Stan Goff’s rant vis-a-vis Cooper? Check out FeralScholar.com and search Jeff Cooper. I think you would enjoy Goff’s book, Full Spectrum Disorder. He’s a radical leftist/Marxist former Special Forces Sgt [MOS 18C] with no tolerance for pacifists on the Left (at least he didn’t in this book).
