Re: What Is the Best Weapon for Home Defense? - A Serious Di

It doesn't seem very responsible that you are educating bad guys to NOT place their fingers in barrels during confrontations. Now they are going to let each other know not to do this.

Re: What Is the Best Weapon for Home Defense? - A Serious Di

Guess my biggest concern is the bg sticking his finger in the end of my barrel when I am pointing it at them and it going BOOM. Lordy. Guess I should go shotgun, they would need something bigger in the barrel.

Re: What Is the Best Weapon for Home Defense? - A Serious Di

My only fear of a semiauto is a hand or finger in the wrong place and you get a FTF. Then it's pucker time.

But I have to admit, my LCP resides next to my revolver in the nightstand at night.

Re: What Is the Best Weapon for Home Defense? - A Serious Di

You're free to disagree, but every article posted here of a home invasion has fewer than 7-8 rounds fired, the suspects flee or they or the homeowner is injured or dead. And an in house confrontation may result in a wrestling match and no bg is going to get his fingers on my hammer.

Here is a video where four bg's that wanted nothing to do with a well armed homeowner.

Re: What Is the Best Weapon for Home Defense? - A Serious Di

A shotgun on my porch and driveway and backyard, in the house a nice .357 revolover with no exposed hammer and six shots. Rarely is a home invasion going to be a siege where you are going to need 100 rounds in a firefight. Someone is going down to the carpet or running down the street after the first 2-3 rounds go downrange.

Just my thoughts.
