Wanna or Hafta
Decisions in a lethal-force encounter are made long before the moment.
This book gives responsible gun owners a clear framework to decide:
are you pulling the gun because you wanna… or because you hafta?
The law cares. So will a DA. And a jury. This book helps you make the right call—before it’s too late.
Written by Colorado firearms instructor
Rick Sindeband,
Wanna or Hafta breaks down when deadly force is truly justified—and when it will land you in court or worse.
Decide before the danger
- What Colorado law actually says about use of force
- How “reasonableness” is judged in real-world situations
- Why conflict avoidance is a life-saving skill
- How gear, training, and mindset must align
- What prosecutors look for after a defensive shooting
Written for real people—not just competitors or lawyers.
This isn’t about shooting—it’s about thinking.
Because when the smoke clears, the question will always be:
Was it a wanna… or a hafta?
Responsible armed citizens
New or renewing CHP holders, home defenders, and anyone who wants a simple, honest way to think about using force when it truly is a last resort.
“It’s not about shooting faster—it’s about deciding smarter.”
