More Black men shoot guns for "good" reasons then you can possibly imagine. They actually have interactive ranges that emulate police department firearms training facilities, if you can find one in your area the extra money spent to get trained in real world self defense is incalculable, static bullseye & silhouette targets don't shoot back. Also it's a wise thing to shoot all your guns every day, interior target shooting bullet traps is easy to set up, any gun shop has the books to DIY your set up, also the reason to shoot your guns daily is two fold, one is obvious, the other reason is just as obvious if you think about it. As far as the SHTF issue there are several forums addressing that, some are just forums on a website for questionable and/or expensive products, some are extremely racist & some are just worthy of lurking, I wouldn't suggest joining any of them, they're all on some law enforcement watch list, just lurk & whatever question you have more then likely your answer will be either in the forums or the site archives. Legitimate survival advice is readily available on the FEMA website.
Remember: The best form of survival is not a firearm, the best form of survival is wisdom.
