General Considerations for SIM’s




                                • Areas such as the head, neck, spine, and

                                   groin life supporting organs susceptible to
                                   damage from impact offer the greatest
                                   potential for serious bodily injury or death

                                   and should be AVOIDED unless it is the
                                   intent to deliver deadly force.

                                • Shots to “center mass” provide for the

                                   highest probability of causing immediate
                                   incapacitation, but also have the highest
                                   potential to cause serious injury or death,

                                   but also

                                • Clothing

                                    – In colder climates where heavier clothing and
                                      jackets are worn, rounds with higher energy
                                      capabilities will be required.
