A lot of people would say a .380 is even good, cause it allows for minimum recoil, keeping you on target. If you somehow miss with your first shot, you want to be able to get that gun back down and on the person as fast as possible.

But in the end, its the piece you're most comfortable with.

Apparently you missed the smiley. I was razzing him....a bit of fun. Personally, I prefer a .45

I did miss the smiley. And a .45 is a good choice, IMO. Knockdown rates are 100%, meaning even if some amphetamine-head happens to threaten you, he's still going down.

Cause if any of you have ever seen a meth head get hurt, its crazy. They can get their hand cut off, and they'll keep going. I'm not going to lie and say I've had first-hand experience, but I've seen enough videos, and heard enough stories from my paramedic aunt that I'm convinced.

Then you either learn the Mozambique drill, or buy a 12 gauge pump with an 18" barrel.

No methhead is going to be able to withstand the hydrostatic shock from #4 buckshot.

FUNNY STORY, about 10 years ago my buddy got into it with a couple opf tweakers, so we're throwing down and one's dad shows up(another tweaker about 50 yrs old) he's in the back of a truck with a SWORD a ****ing sword

and this asshole proceeds to jump out of the truck fall flat on his face and shove that sword right through his hand, i start laughing my ass off until he stands up looks at me and pulls that ****ing thing out of his hand like his hand was a sheath, all the while smiling. so the laughter turns to serious REAL quick, i holler for someone to give me a bat and this guy throws me a curtain rod, WOW ends up this stupid **** throws the sword at me, i duck and proceed to beat the living shit out of this guy. he was pretty tough, old man strength and dope combined, crazy shit and totally true

Bump, I'm glad he did, I missed it when it came out.

Tim, you got any hunting trips planned with Dick Cheney ?

StcChief · 03-03-2009, 10:02 AM

damn cats... I check all entrances before set alarm.

I'd actually been thinking about this, since we're having the house painted this week. The walls in the kitchen will now be a darker color, even though the hole is near the bottom of the side of the door, I think it will stand out more now. Probably time to fill in the hole and paint it over before my mother-in-law notices it.

Never thought I'd have to bondo my refrigerator.
