Prime Reason for self defense/ 2nd amendments righta

Mine stays loaded in a locked box beside my bed, it takes 10 seconds to open and grab my mini-led flash light. That's the nice part, it lights them up bright as day, and they can't see me to retaliate (sp?).

3 Very large dogs & a loaded remington 870

that flash light idea is really good. dogs are probably one of the best alarm/defense things you can have, not only can they warn but they can defend. i look at it this way once someone forces their way into your home, all bets are off.

1. Alarm system
2. Dogs barking
3. Loaded .357 magnum and 12 gauge

I like the flashlight idea.
Oh, and I aim for center mass.

I think the 12 gauge is more effective than anything else. Nothing clinches your butthole like a pump action shotgun cocking in a pitch black room you just broke into.

haha....you right the burgular must have a death wish to stay in the house after that sound.

HAHA, yeah, usually if you hear that sound, it's the last you EVER hear. I figure at least with my Glock they would somewhat of a chance. I'm a pretty good shot, so they might NOT have any chance.

I just recently completed the concealed carry class at a local gunshop. While I firmly understand that this is not nowhere near enough training needed for the responsibility for carring a firearm and the use of deadly force( I have signed up for more classes), I highly recomend taking these courses whether you carry, or own a fire arm. I learned a ton of valuable information from an experianced instructor( yes, it does depend on the instructor) that I hope will first, allow me to avoid a situation that calls for deadly force, second prepares me for use of deadly force if needed, third, teaches me to be able to make the correct choice of use, and fourth( but not finally) the legal implications of use of deadly force. I learned far more in that 8 hour course than i ever thought I would, and no, it didn't come from the books, but rather from the instrutor. I highly recomend taking these course(if available in your state) even if you chose not to carry, for no other reason to educate yourself, and to send the politicians a message that every carry permit issued, is a vote for responsible gun ownership.

BTW, for those of ya'll using a shotgun for home defense, take care in the loads you use, better yet, stack up 4 or 5 sheets of drywall and shoot it, see what happens and remember what may be on the other side of that wall in your house. Try to find a load that will not over penetrate, small birdshot will still carry a deadly load at short range
