911 dialed today...

lol... I hear ya... I don't shoot one handed, but just stating how easy my .44 was to shoot. Though I have tried it, I don't shoot any of my firearms thatb way. You loose control & trust me, you want the control. Good call on not getting a semi, that slide will bite you if you're not careful. The big plus is not needing to pick up the brass, if you know what I mean. You know what is a VERY intimidating gun is the Kel-Tec PLR-16 Pistol .223 Yes, it fires a .223 round out of a pistol! I think that's my next purchase.

 

Yes, I forgot my seeing eye dog. lol... 8)

 

I think the point is with 00 buck, that it won't matter what the size is of the person breaking in is. They will bleed out, period.

Hit a really big guy with bird shot and it will make him angry, and if he lives he'll sue. Hit a guy high on meth or acid breaking into your house, and you may have to completely unload on him using lighter rounds - JMO.

I've shot over a thousand rounds this year with my Remington 870 Express 18" barrel (Synthetic Stock and Forend 7-round capacity), and it's just fine for home protection.

 

I didn't even know they made an 18" barrell for those!! One thing is for shure... make sure they can't sue you!!

 

3" shell 00 buck from 5 to 10 feet you are pretty much cutting someone in half. But then again, a dead man tells no lies...

 

If I'm using my 12 guage it will be a 3" lightfield slug guaranteed.
I am going to call for an interview with the detective tomorrow and hopefully will get the interview wed. After that it will only be a matter of a couple of weeks. Seeing that Kogle's wife's car got broke into last night and it isn't the first occurance for him we will be gun shopping soon!

 

Geeesh, I thought Indiana was a nice quite area.

 

As with anywhere esle there is some scum out there... unfortunately it happens all over America

 

I hear ya.. Sad but true..

 

Well Bryce, I'm taking mommy gun shopping hopefully this weekend. I'm just going to get her what she wants. I was thinking a .357 at first but I think that's too much gun for her. Maybe she'll want something like a .38.

As for me, I'll be getting an H&K .40 sub compact. Don't know if I want the tactical version or not. Pricey piece but I LOVE the way they shoot. I wish more gun makers ejected their shells out of the top instead of the side.
