Had a 20 gauge for hunting for years, sold it. Haven't purchased a gun since but have been thinking about getting one for quite some time. Nothing wrong with individuals owning guns for their specific reasons and like stated before just make sure you are trained and also train your kids on proper gun ownership, maintenance, etc.... If you don't want a gun a air horn would do the trick!

Not sure why this topic falls under miscellaneous? ??.
Anyways picked up a Taurus G2 9mm at Dunham's sports. $219 . Makes a nice "extra" . Kinda like adding another smoke detector to the house. "Hope it never goes off". 10 plus one in the chamber. And an Extra clip. Drywallers will have fun. Hole is dug! Bring it on!! Lol.

Pretty sure the sound of my Remington 870 action will run off most intruders, if their not that smart the buck shot will end it, no need to bother aiming.

870 12 gauge will work. I so much wanted to do a Lazer scope , but then an intruder can see the source. Pass, buckshot and a prayer, works better.

So far with all these loaded weapons tucked under pillows. shotgons within reach, or tucked in hidden places so many steps away,
no one has pulled the trigger yet.

And probably most of us hope we never have to. Much like we hope to never have to hear our smoke or CO alarms going off. Or make a claim on our insurance policies. :)

Hearing a alarm screech or ins claim, well I think most have. Batteries die, stuff happens. We dont like it but....

OK I'm not a gun person. To many bad experiences and even though I can see why,. I just dont see why ~~

I didn't mean chirping from dead batteries. I meant an actual alarm. As far as insurance claims go, yes, most of us have made them. But we'd prefer not to be in the circumstances that required us to use them. That's the point I'm trying to make.

I like the PS90 for PDW , it's pretty much a bull pup style " sub gun " with a generous mag capacity. Should have no problems defending the hacienda with that. The cartridge was designed specifically for close quarters . Add in a guard dog and a few FsN pistols stashed around the house and things get " risky " for an unwanted intruder.

  1. Oh horrors, "a salt weapon"! :eek:
  2. Nice!

("Assault weapon", and "Assault rifle": political terms used by the would be "gun grabbers", based more on superficial appearance than intended application or capability, largely intended to inspire fear in the uninformed populace (i.e. voters!). Damn politicians anyway! That said as an NRA member since my high school rifle team(!) days (and Life Member since 1963 — age 23).

Frank, I bet you were as "on target" with your shooting as you are with this statement! :)

Well, kinda:

  • Usually qualified Expert or Distinguished in smallbore rifle in high school/college competitions.
  • Mostly Expert & several Distinguished awards in NRA sectionals with Detroit Edison Pistol Club[SUP]1[/SUP].
  • Expert High Power Rifle (M1), National Rifle & Pistol Championships, Camp Perry, Ohio, 1962(?) Army ROTC, sponsored by the Fifth US Army Advanced Marksmanship Unit, Fort Knox, KY.
  • Expert Rifleman, U.S. Army marksmanship qualification.
My introduction to stupid gun laws:
In Detroit at the time, carrying unloaded target pistol(s) from home to the range in a locked case in the trunk of the car was technically "carrying concealed weapons" (there was no distinction between that and having a loaded pistol in the "glove box"!) and required a CCW license, which at the time was issued solely upon the discretion of some police bureaucracy, with no appeal or recourse, and the application form was on par with filling out the US Office of Personnel Management's 127 page Standard Form 86 for a security clearance, plus providing a completed "application for sainthood" in the Catholic Church.

([SUP]1 Detroit Edison Pistol Club, 100 West Willis Street, Detroit, MI,
The building is still there today (see Google Street View)!, the range was on the 2nd floor.)
