And cable tv pushers.
Me I have a 681 S&W .357 followed by an 870 12 Ga. then a H&R 10 Ga. if all hell breaks loose.

Ezearln, Maybe you could get A.H. to bring Hubert over to help train Gladys.

billy · 05-09-2008, 07:34 AM

the sound of a shotgun round being chambered is a deterrent.
so is the sight of a little red dot dancing around on your chest from my crimson trace equipped .357mag.

riverrat · 05-09-2008, 07:06 PM

rem 1100 with 000, cz52, and my wife has a .38. Like to get her a shotgun. do they make a pump or semiauto .410?

Mike Franklin · 05-09-2008, 07:18 PM

If she can handle a .410 , she can handle a 20 ga. At the SAS shoots we have women who weigh 100 lbs shooting 20 ga SXS.

I just had to try that. Doesn't really make any recognizable gun sound. Lame because all I have to use besides 22s and some awkward mosins is my browning skeet gun.

Want to really scare them off????
Let them hear the beep, beep, beep of 911 on your cell phone.

When seconds mean life or death, help is only minutes away.

My home defense:

1). my dogs (they are the "siren" part of my home defense system);
2). my husband;
3).our mossberg 12gauge, my FEG .380 and hubby's Taurus .40 cal.

ArkansasHunter · 05-10-2008, 08:35 AM

If anyone breaks in my house at night my wife will be the first to hear them, she will elbow me and wisper Did you hear that ?
Which will wake me up.
In the unlikely event the intruder were to enter our home we have a highly trained pet that should be able to handle this situation quiet well.
If not.
I have a choice of my CZ 82 pistol or a shotgun beside our bed 1 and 2 feet away.

SwedeSteve · 05-10-2008, 09:15 AM

AH, I just roll over, and tell her "It's your turn to go look". Worked so far, LOL!

KingMusa45 · 05-11-2008, 05:41 AM

leave a dead crook on your door step for two weeks it scares the rest of them away.it lets them know that you are the alfa and it gives you first dibs during mateing season. i saw a special about it on pbs

saiga 410 shotgun

LEE3370 · 05-11-2008, 07:12 AM

Mossberg makes a very sweet little 410 pump.

DWFan · 05-19-2008, 10:45 AM

Ya'll mention the sound of the pump, the dot of the laser, etc. I feel differently. I don't want the SOB to know where I am. I want to catch them by surprise and drop them before they know I'm anywhere around. No warning. To hell with giving them a chance to defend themselves or hide or escape to find another victim. If they are outside, they get every opportunity to avoid a conflict and back off. If they are in my house, they are dead. I don't worry about an accidental shooting as my friends and family know to announce themselves before entering.

But what if its Bigfoot? I thought you and him have some history together? You think he'd out smart your wife and dog?

jimkim · 05-19-2008, 01:24 PM

tlarkin haven't you seen the Jack Links commercials. Bigfoot isn't crafty enough to even get into the house. Lol

andrew cochran · 05-19-2008, 02:00 PM

I don't know. He might have that "inner smartness" when it comes in handy. LOL
