I am pretty sure a hammer is better for defense than an unloaded gun. In fact, put two guys at close range, one with a semiautomatic pistol that doesn't have one in the chamber and and the other guy with easy access to a hammer, I think the hammer wins. In Mexico, many many years ago the cops had to buy their own bullets. I learned to look at the cylinders to see if they were loaded. One day, some cops tried to arrest me in Cancun and put me in the back seat of a Volkswagen Beetle. LMAO, those short little guys didn't do so well so they called for back up. Now there are a dozen cops without bullets in their guns, tourists gathered in crowd and soon video cameras are filming the scene. The cops were timid and when they pushed me I belly bucked them back and knocked one down. They called for more back up, and now even more tourists are watching this street scene where the Mexican Police are failing to arrest a gringo they pulled over on a traffic stop. Eventually the Federal police showed up with assault rifles. They weren't so timid but they were being filmed so they didn't point the assualt rifles they had slung over their backs at me. Instead, they lined up like a football team and tried pushing my big ass into the Volkswagen Beetle. I had grabbed onto the door and roof and they tried really hard a couple times, but failed. So now three branches of law enforcement with 22 cops/officers are in the street. There are about 150 tourists circled around and finally the chief of the Tourist Police shows up with nice air conditioned Dodge and offers to take me out for a beer, but says the rescue means I have to buy the beer. He promises to find out what is going on and help straighten it out when we get to the bar (I wouldn't get in the Volkswagen Beetle because they would not tell me why they were arresting me). We went to the bar, he made some calls and a couple hundred bucks cleared everything up. The point of all that . . . if the very first guy had a hammer instead of an unloaded gun, it all would have went quite differently.
