But it works, and the company keeps making it better—so much better that our reviewer, a gun-packer of 13 years, is giving up old rigs in favor of the QCC. However, the rig does have a few drawbacks.

When those around you are your loved ones, and the people whose lives or health is being threatened, it is a fairly easy decision of when to get involved. However, when the threat is merely in your vicinity, or the threat is too strangers, the decision becomes much more blurry. This is true in the individual’s mind and the mind of the courts or legal letter of the law. Watch the video for insights as to if, and when, you should get involved.
