^I noticed that also.^


but just to put down my thoughts.....

for defensive weapons

if one absolutely insists on a rifle, a 223 on an AR format is hard to beat.

best choice, a 12 Ga. (I prefer the semi's like the mossy 930SPX, but pumps work fine also)

If one does very little range work, a 4" barrel 357 mag. wheelgun (you have the option of using 38 special)

if you are proficent with autos, my personal choice is the 1911

I took him for a liberal infiltrator right off the bat. There was something about that whole "let liberty rein" line that didn't sit right with me. Maybe it was just the mispell but it came off liblike to me.

You could surely be correct in that thinking! It certainly wouldn't be the first time I've seen the libs pull that!

The good thing if the guy is actually ligit, then he got a good responce to his ignorance, and may be able to make good decisions for his, and his family's home defrense. If he is a lib spy, then he also got proper answers that he should havebeen made aware of already, now he has!

I see this a lot here LOL AND I checked his stats and he has'nt been back since he made his post.

If so, he is probably a graduate sociology student at UC Berkeley or UW Madison (Berkeley North).

Being a defense weapon I would suggest a shot gun in 12 gauge however 20 will do if you don't want the recoil of the 12. Ammo is not very expensive for the 12 or 20 gauge guns either. Neither are the platforms for which you would use these rounds. A good defensive shotgun brand new can be had for 300 dollars. You can spend less or more it is up to you really.

Dead people sue all the time. Their next of kin do it.
