The condition 1/condition orange things come from Jeff Cooper. They are 2 different scales. The numbers refer to ways to carry a 1911 - chamber empty, hammer down is Condition 1. The colors are states of mind. I think white is the lowest, basically you have no anticipation of combat at all. It escalates through various colors through red, which is you are about to fire. |
Some football players got handicapped plaques....yea and? I was referring to the dirtbag with a badge issued by UCLA.
And I know all about the "conditions" ....Sorry...my dry humor is at it again.
Let me be frank about it.... it's stupid to think in "conditions"...in my opinion. Real life is too variable and free flowing for compartmentalizing your thought process during high stress and dangerous situations.
Compartmental thinking is good for engineers, and computer programmers...though. Or would be great for Area 51 employees.
Put your secrets in a box and lock it up in your head.
With a firearm in public (during peace time), you need your wits, judgment and flexability. Not compartments with colors and numbers.
Just my opinion,.
