Shoot to stop. If the threat stops on the first shot or second shot, you stop shooting. You don’t lower your guard, but you stop shooting.
Our qualification includes three to the body, one to the head from five yards. The scenario is that the threat doesn’t go down from the first three due to body armor or drugs, so the head shot is the “stop” shot. It also includes three rounds from one yard from a close retention firing position (speed rock without the extreme lean).
“Deadly force” is the acknowledgment that shooting to stop may result in an unsurvivable wound to your target.
