i think if a female is not real experienced a revolver is a good idea. ONe reason is she doenst have to remember is the safety is on when its time to use it, doesnt have to know how to clear a jam or wether it fires with the clip out or not. Its just pull the trigger. if you dont hear a bang...
My two cents, though it may only be worth one cent. I have a mossberg 500 with a 7 and 1 capacity. It has a tactical light, a 6position collapsable stock and a pistol type grip. I feel the standard stock plus a pistol grip is the best combo when the gun is for self defense. I can really get a...
it happened in indianapolis indiana. They took a few things that didnt amount to alot of money. The other part of the story is that I lived with my sister and bro-in-law. I was only 15 and my mom died the week before. Well unfortunately my sister and her husband routinely smoked the mary jew...
I do the same as indyguy77 hammer always down, first pull double action and all others will be single action. I dont place my finger on the trigger. If i dont squeeze the trigger it isnt going bang, and my gun has internal safeties should it be dropped. It is a ruger p93. I dont like having...
To make a long story short. I was 15. Knock on the door. Like everyone else does, I opened the door. Two men with shotguns, one barrel forced into my chest to knock me down. Hands tied behind back, feet tied, pillow case tied over my head. Same scenario for my nephew who is 4 days older than me...
she is a perfect example of how a gunowner should be. She didnt want to hurt anyone but knew she had know option, and she waited until there was no other option. She did what she had to do and immediately felt remorseful. The media want to make gunowners out to be angry wackos looking for a...
update
I agree with the last poster. Also I shouln't promote, and dont promote doing anything illegal. It is just a simple fact that I carry when iam in chicago. I only go there about 1 time a year to visit the wifes family.
First of all noone will change my mind on this. I tend to obey the laws of the land, however when I go to the communist state of Illinois, specifically chicago, I always take my gun. Iam not going to have me and my family die so that I can say I upheld the communits, anti-constitutional laws...
permit is a generic term used by most people to say they have a legal right to carry their handgun. Like saying iam going to get a coke when you might actually purchase a diet coke or mtdew. I , respectfully to the person who corrected the poster, think they were just asking what it takes to be...
in the clear
I also believe in most areas you would be in the clear. I have often thought of this scenario. If it happens to me I believe I will take the shot on the bad guy. Who knows how many he will kill, including me if iam spotted. The fact that he pulled a gun with premeditated violant...
Its kind of funny. On this website I could argue that iam not near as prepared as others here, but there is practically noone around me who is as near prepared as me. When I step away from this community,(ingun owners), it's like iam the most prepared, "radical" person around.
I bet many of...
I was thinking to prepare to have more than I really need for my wife and daughter. Then when the time comes only give a little bit, and not the things that I value most, perhaps things that are at the expiration date, and say "i can help some, but I have to think of my wife and daughter first...
I have often thought of this scenario. Things are bad. I have plenty or suffiecient amounts for the people in my house. Family members who never thought of being prepared, and perhaps thought I was a little crazy for being so prepared suddenly find themselves in need of my assistance. ie, they...
The next thing on my list is a good generator. I know it is very important. The wife is without work and Iam still buy things. I stock Plenty of ammo. The reason some meat is frozen and some is non-parisheable is because i know frozen has to be maintained and non-parisheable is much more...
I always keep a chest freezer full of meat. All meat vacuum sealed and I always write the date that I froze it, in perm, marker. Also about 10 cases of canned and not perisheable items, and always write the experiation date on top. When i see something is close to the date, I use it, "rotation"...
