“The critical element is penetration”
“The critical element is hits.”

The critical element is placment. If you don’t hit something vital, it isn’t going down regardless of penetration or the number of hits....red

The critical element is being armed.

The critical element is the gun that you have with you. A .32 in your pocket is better than the 12 gauge you left in the garage.

And shot placement.

And penetration.

“If you don’t hit something vital, it isn’t going down regardless of penetration or the number of hits.”

More importantly, a criminal is going down for 15 seconds even if you hit the guy square in the heart with a .45.

A lot of bad things can happen in 15 seconds.
