Title: Guns - Best one for home protection
Post by: theworm on December 22, 2012, 01:46:51 PM
I already have a glock 40, but looking for more, can't decide between an AR-15 or a nice shot gun...

Any thoughts?

AR-15 is the best for home defense, but good luck finding one right now.  A good 12 guage pump with #4 or 00 buck is great for home defense as well.  However, they are limited on capacity and tend to overpenetrate.  Do you have kids, or neighbors?

the best home defense is a nice poodle.   little fcker will wake up and attack ankles and get the party started so you can brew a Kcup of coffee to get you alert before the gun fight. 

Stay in your room on the floor, calling 911,, if you know someone is in the house.  NEVER have a confrontation you dont have to have.  Stay low and waste anything that comes into your room. 

If you have to sweep house - then you come in LOW with the shotty at the ready, glock on your waist.  Toss a remote control across the room as a diversionary and then move in.  wear your body armor if you have any.

never wear ear protection.  You will possibly hear that 'mouse fart' that alerts you to the bad guy.   He might be in hiding too - Don't run blindly into any room.   Time is on your side, particularly with law on the way.  You can give hiim the scariest "Sheriff's Department!" or other yell to let him know he's about to tangle with a grown ass man, to the death.  Also "say hello to my little friend" while racking the shotty and laughing hysterically has been known to intimidate.  Never give them "Please leave".   Instead try "I wanna shoot you so bad, my d*ck is hard".   That'll make them wonder if they really want to breach that door.

Why would you choose a rifle inside a house?  Your target isn't hundreds of yards away.  Seems like anything with a long barrel would be hard to work with.

For your average person, a shotgun is probably preferable. I would personally choose a cqbr type short barreled AR.

Several reasons:

1.  They aren't hard to work with.
2.  Ballistically speaking, they are much, much more effective than a pistol.  Bottom line, pistols suck compared to rifles.
3.  You can acquire a target very quickly with an AR15.
4.  High capacity.
5.  With the proper ammo, the chances of overpenetration are nill.  
6.  If an intruder were to break into your house, and they were carrying a rifle, you will need equal firepower.

Remington 870 in the Marine Magnum configuration.

(http://rantsnraves.blogs.com/photos/uncategorized/2008/07/10/870mm_800.jpg).

Nickel plated for lower maintenance, good magazine capacity, based on a proven platform with lots of options. It doesn't attract as much negative attention as the AR-15 type rifles, and it will be low on any ban lists.

Load with #00 buck or 4 shot and you're good to go.

Can't see wanting to swing around a rifle inside a house but I'm not a gun owner so maybe you know better.  I'd probably go for a short bodied clip fed shotgun.  Can't see why anyone would still use a pump action unless semiautos are unreliable.

You're correct.  Pump action shotguns are more reliable than semiauto shotguns.

Only mag fed shotgun I know that is modestly priced and easy to find is the Saiga series -

(http://forum.saiga-12.com/style_images/1/Saiga.gif).

I am leery of those because they've only been out for a bit, and have attracted the attention of anti-gunners.

In America, there are two things that are usually looked at for a shotgun to get ATF clearance -

The barrel is over .50, so it technically falls under firearms laws as a "destructive device". You cannot own arms over .50  in America without jumping through some special hoops. The ATF usuals forgives this rule for shotguns if they serve a sporting purpose , so it might be safe there. The other problem is the detachable magazine, in general the ATF likes the magazine capacity of a shotgun to stay under a certain limit, if it goes past that limit, they start to look at it as non sporting firearm, and if directed will take steps to ban it.

Right now they are safe because they are pretty new to the market, but they'd be a pretty easy ban if any governmental agency decided to make an issue of it.

How many homes are being invaded? Most criminals knock on the door to see if you are home first. If you  are they fast talk how they are at the wrong house. If you're not there they go around back and kick in the door.

A .223 for shooting ranges under 20 feet is nuts. It can go through a lot of dry wall.  A hand gun is perfect but every time I'm at a range the shooting is really bad from hand gun owners. If hitting a stationary target is hard with no stress imagine how hard it is to connect in real world shootings.

I would go for a shotgun like the 870. A quality pump is almost jam proof. Across a room the spread isn't that much. #4 buck in a three inch shell throws 41 .24 caliber balls toward an intruder and in house distances is devastating. Imagine shooting someone 41 times with a .22 long rifle? Rack it again and it's 82 buck shot.

Why and what makes you the expert?  Have you ever shot at someone before ???   Prior military?

I'm no expert, but I can tell you that gun has no practical purpose.  .410 shotgun ballistics suck.  45 colt and 454 casull are solid calibers, but still suck when compared to rifle rounds.  The sight picture sucks on that gun, it has limited capacity, it's heavy.  Furthermore, Taurus guns have some of the worst reputation for quality and reliability.  Yes, I have owned Taurus, and shot Taurus, and will never own another one.

If you're thinking about a Taurus Raging Judge, I would suggest looking at something else.

Don't talk, and for Christ's sake don't put any type of light on your weapon. Get your family safe, retreat to a defensive position and call 911.

Get a pump shotgun and rack that fucker. The sound is unmistakable. Very, very good chance the intruder changes their mind.

Again, one of the first rules regarding home defense is to not give up your position.  Racking shotguns is for movies only.  If you rack the slide on your shotgun, the intruder now knows where you are.  He could easily start firing rounds in your direction.  The only sound an intruder should ever hear is you pulling the trigger.

That wouldn't suprise me, like it's any different than lighting a guy up with a pistol or a normal rifle. I believe that is a 10.5" barrel, which you have to get a permit to have anyway. Perfect for home defense, compact and effective with the short barrel and collapsed stock.

almost 1000ft per second, you give it 4 seconds, it gives you death over 3000 feet away. theres no delay like in the movies, no, its 'I pull the trigger and you're dead'

While technically not illegal, they are banned in many states. They are also classified as Destructive Devices here, and require a good amount of State and Federal paperwork and taxes to be filed for them even if an individual state allows them.

Well at least we know it's effective.  :D

5.56 will only go through walls if you miss...

As I said earlier, for the average person, a shotgun is probably best. Btw, im pretty sure that most of those rounds arent going to go through your wall, outside and through the neighbors wall without deflecting.

Thats why I saw 5.56 BALL. The standard 5.56mm NATO round is designed to tumble.

The 5.56×45mm NATO (official NATO nomenclature 5.56 NATO) is a rifle cartridge developed in the United States and originally chambered in the M16 rifle. Under STANAG 4172, it is a standard cartridge for NATO forces as well as many non-NATO countries.[2] It is derived from, but not identical to, the .223 Remington cartridge. When the bullet impacts at high velocity and yaws[3] in tissue, fragmentation creates a rapid transfer of energy which can result in dramatic wounding effects.[4][5][6]

I'm no expert, but I can tell you that gun has no practical purpose.  .410 shotgun ballistics suck.  45 colt and 454 casull are solid calibers, but still suck when compared to rifle rounds.  The sight picture sucks on that gun, it has limited capacity, it's heavy.  Furthermore, Taurus guns have some of the worst reputation for quality and reliability.  Yes, I have owned Taurus, and shot Taurus, and will never own another one.

If you're thinking about a Taurus Raging Judge, I would suggest looking at something else.  
Ballistics do suck but they have hotter ammo you can get and Im pretty sure anybody you hit with it in the confines of a home is probably going down or at the very least not going to be looking to fight anymore.

I have a snub nose judge and the home defense ammo they have for that packs a decent punch but it is only a 5 shot.

I been in a large swat group with full body armor with a m4 while people are throwing shit at me and not backing down. Let a few dogs go out and watch the people surrender or run away.

Dog is the best home protection you can get. The dog will hear the robber way before you. Then I recommend a 870 12 gauge. One of the best and most reliable guns ever. 2 rounds of buck shot followed by a slug.

My personal home defense gun is filled with rubber bullets. If someone breaks into my house I just want to knock them down so I can call the police so they can have a good honest trial. LOL just kidding. They'll be dead were they stand so they don't walk out of the courthouse with nothing but a home arrest.

Good choices I love my glock 19 and mossberg 500. I'm looking into either getting an ak or even a little norinco sks. They only hold ten rounds but once you get use to feeding stripper clips you can reload really fast. I can't afford to spend 600-1000 dollars right now.

I keep a 12-gauge and a .410 (for my wife) in the rack by our bed with slugs for both in the drawer.  

Biggest worry I have about using either of them on an intruder is accidentally hitting my presa canario who will already be eating one of the burglars.



I know a lot of people hate guns, but the only reason I bother locking my doors at night is to save ME the hassle of dealing with the police, etc. after some moron tries breaking into my house.  When you have a wife and small children at home, locking your doors to protect the INTRUDER is a nice way to go to sleep each night.

Best weapon for home defense is a shotgun with buckshot. I have a tactical shotgun with adjustable buttstock to make the weapon a bit shorter, heat guard and 5 round ammo holder. Ill end up putting a light on it and maybe a rear sight aperture, although with a shotgun, in close quarters, using buckshot you do not need to be extremely accurate. Ill take this any day over an AR for home defense.

For most things, a good pump shotgun is still hard to beat for most urban/suburban folks. The Remington 870 is a proven choice with lots of aftermarket stuff, and in the nickel marine configuration, very low maintenance.

For a pistol - Smith and Wesson 66 .357 (you can also use .38 in it) or something in the Glock range of products.

if it's for "protection" don't bother. statistics show your household will be less safe if you own a gun.

think about it logically. if guns are so great for protection, how come the US with by far the most guns also has by far the highest murder rate in the developed world?

There are LOTS of instances of responsible gun owners protecting their businesses and homes.

My home will be less safe if someone breaks into my residence with a gun and I don't have a gun.

(http://www.remington.com/sites/default/files/styles/product_gallery_1200/public/product/shotgun/images/870Marine_Mag.png?itok=KokAYgs8).

For most things, a good pump shotgun is still hard to beat for most urban/suburban folks. The Remington 870 is a proven choice with lots of aftermarket stuff, and in the nickel marine configuration, very low maintenance.

For a pistol - Smith and Wesson 66 .357 (you can also use .38 in it) or something in the Glock range of products.  

Thanks. I'm going to go the handgun route!

there are LOTS of anecdotal instances of all sorts. i am talking about the big picture. statistically you or someone else in your household is far more likely to be injured/killed with your own gun than the chances of you using it to protect yourself against an intruder.

Pump shotgun. Mossberg 500 or Remington 870 hold both in you hands and pick which one you like more.
Other opinion is a decent handgun. Just make sure you get hollow points. They don’t go though walls which is great because you don’t kill people by accident.

Not sure if that is 100% true about hollow points, but they are the superior round for self defense and have less over penetration than fmj.

Self defense rounds (hollow tips) are made not to over-penetrate but you can't coun't on that 100%.  Plus not every shot you fire is gonna hit someone.

That's why you have to know your target and what's behind it.

"The U.S. has the highest gun ownership rates and also has the highest rate of firearm-related deaths," said study co-author Dr. Sripal Bangalore, a cardiologist at the New York University School of Medicine. [5 Biggest Gun Control Milestones in History]

"Past studies have shown that gun owners are much likelier to be shot with their own weapons than they are to use it to thwart a crime. Other research has shown that gun laws are linked with lower rates of firearms deaths."

"We can show that guns don't make a nation safer," Bangalore said.

"The study "provides some very convincing evidence that firearms-related deaths are very strongly correlated with prevalence of guns,"[NOSHT SHERLOCK!] said Dr. Eric Fleegler, a health services researcher at Boston Children's Hospital, who was not involved in the study."

The thing with birdshot is that it usually leaves a nasty, shallow wound. It looks horrible, heals ugly, but really doesn't take the fight out of people sometimes. It can work, but if the person is fat, wearing heavy clothing, etc....., it gets dicey.

I guess it's a trade off like is often the case with firearms. Low penetration but probably not the best stopping power. There is a video of a college girl getting shot point blank range with bird shot and she just walks away.

Maybe if you had an ounce of common sense you would be able to see that the places that have the highest murder rates also have the strictest gun control laws.

Pump shotgun. Mossberg 500 or Remington 870 hold both in you hands and pick which one you like more.
Other opinion is a decent handgun. Just make sure you get hollow points. They don’t go though walls which is great because you don’t kill people by accident.

Hollow point hand gun bullets don't go through dry wall or doors?  You're wrong.  A lot of bad info on this thread.  Shot a couple 9MM and .357 Magnum hollow point at a car door. All shot went through the door. Dry wall and the sheathing plywood that frames a stick house wouldn't stop these rounds either.

I don't want to "speak for" Powerlift, but I believe his point is that - even in the absence of guns - evil people will still find ways to commit evil.

Monty, that is exactly what I was trying to say. No civilian should own war grade weapons, and bump stocks should be ilegalized.
No use for them, except to kill people,and act tough on YouTube.

I like guns, (but I dont like the whack-job gun fanatics) but I do like common sense.
People will find a way, to kill people, sometimes guns make it easy for them, but if there is a will, there is a way.

It sucks. It's mental illness, banning guns will do nothing. Area's with strict gun control (Chicago) are the worst, criminals know decent people aren't packing.
So they run free with no worries. Politicians and whack-jobs who follow them (and politics in general) are retarded...

You clearly don’t understand the intent of the second amendment. Civilians owning “war grade weapons” was the whole fucking point. Work to repeal it if you want, it won’t matter. The Bill of Rights is not a list of things the government bestows on the people, it’s a list of things bestowed by “the creator” and that government is PROACTIVELY barred from infringing.

Hollow point hand gun bullets don't go through dry wall or doors?  You're wrong.  A lot of bad info on this thread.  Shot a couple 9MM and .357 Magnum hollow point at a car door. All shot went through the door. Dry wall and the sheathing plywood that frames a stick house wouldn't stop these rounds either.

I never agree with OT, but he’s spot on here. It’s clear that HTexan doesn’t know fuck all about guns.

You spew all this hate towards Americans while living in a community that is far more segregated than that of the vast majority of American getbiggers.

Yes, I would say that. I'm lucky to afford to live in one of Portland's wealthiest neighborhoods. I'm not going to apologize for it.

-Not sure where you got the idea that I spew hate towards Americans. I have no hateful feelings toward any group of people, just individuals who piss me off and even then it is more dislike than hate. Also, I'm very forgiving.

For daily carry a glock of some sort in 9mm. 9mm because it is cheap to shoot and does the job well enough. Better to practice a lot and be good with what many call a sub power caliber than only practice a couple times a month with 45acp due to its cost.

In the car, a bone stock AK, 3-4 extra mags, cleaning kit, and maybe another 200 rds hidden in a go bag with other essentials like food, water and first aid stuff to get you through a 24 hr situation. I say 7.62x39 over .223 due to round size, and cost effective ammo procurement. You can afford to shoot every weekend on almost any budget with an AK or SKS. The AK spits more lead downrange its that simple, and is cheap to buy, and hits hard at close range.

12 gauge shotgun for home defense. loaded with bird shot. Will make a mess of anyone, and is very intimidating. I like semi autos over pumps, its a firepower thing. You want to enact maximum violence in the least time. Pump would be good if you anticipate using it for hunting or using more diverse loads. Can't go wrong with either! 20g is a good option too, especially if you have a wife or GF. It will be softer on recoil, and can still dish out a lot of lead.

"Birdshot for self-defense seems awesome, with little to no penetration of walls, and you’re protected from the dreaded over-penetration right? Well, not a single birdshot load penetrates the required 12 inches to produce a reliable killing shot. Let’s also remember that Dick Cheney accidentally shot his friend, a man well into the middle of his life, in the face with birdshot and the man made a full recovery.
How to hide your guns, and other off-grid caches…
At the distance where you’re poking them with your shotgun I’m sure it’s plenty fatal, but further than that and I just find it to be less and less likely that’ll you’ll stop a threat effectively.  I also wouldn’t want to be that close to a bad guy.
Why use an inferior load made for squirrels, birds and clay pigeons?
Now, of course, you have slugs, and slugs can be used to reach out a little further than standard buckshot — roughly about 100 yards with a bead sight. Slugs can be devastating and are an option if the fight moves its way outside the home, or if you keep a shotgun for your trunk gun. Slugs are always good to have, but I personally don’t like them as an inside-the-home defense load.
Slugs can really over-penetrate. Plus, why use a slug? After all, a shotgun is a shotgun because it shoots a load of shot. A slug gun is kind of a big, low capacity rifle.
Story continues below video

Buckshot is my choice for home defense. Buckshot consistently penetrates to 12 inches and is capable of producing devastating wounds.
So penetration is covered, but what about shot placement? Well, per-shot the shotgun provides multiple projectiles, creating multiple wound paths, and therefore increasing the likelihood of placing an effective shot. Even if nothing vital is hit and a fatal wound isn’t inflicted, you’ll have an attacker full of pieces of lead, creating multiple wound channels throughout his torso – not only a very painful series of wounds but a debilitating effect on the body."

Post by: Core on October 08, 2017, 10:22:00 PM
Surprisingly cogent and well-reasoned advice.

You have to think about the real world situations. For example a tricked out $3000 AR with all the tacticool goodies is a terrible choice for a car gun, since there's a chance it could be stolen. A $500 secondhand AK you haggled for at a pawn shop? Not so much of a loss. Thats $2500 in ammo you can buy for your AK, if you budget that $3000 for firearms and don't buy something fancy. You could get a sweet SKS for even less, and still have solid reliable firepower at short to medium range, plus tons of money to buy ammo to practice with.

You have to consider realistic combat scenarios too- do you really want to engage in a balls out gunfight? Because you or the other guy, or both of you will die or be seriously wounded. Your goal is to live remember, that is the whole point of self defense. That is why it is important to be able to suppress the aggressor if they are at range- no point lining up a headshot shot with that fancy eotech at 100 yds if theres a chance he's already got a bead on you. In that situation you should assume you are dead. So ditch the red dot, its a waste of money and optics kill your situational awareness anyway. You want to fire a lot of lead his way and get the hell out of there as fast as you can. Barring that, you want to relocate in such a way that you will have the upper hand at the next exchange of gunfire, so that the fight will be on your terms and not his. If you have only a pistol and are being engaged by a rifleman, you want to force him closer to you by getting out of his line of sight which will force him to come to you. At the least, it will buy you time to find a way around him to fire on him from a new angle that he does not expect.  

If at close range say under 50 yds, sights do not really matter that much. You can reliably hit targets without them if you have practiced enough, and your reaction time will be far better if you do not aim with the sights. Special forces run many close range drills with pistol and carbine that are simple reflex exercises based on this concept. Now will you be able to land headshots? Probably no. But you can hit the target in center mass, and you will hit them faster than they can hit you and that is what counts in a gunfight.

 And when you hit them, do you want to hit them with a piddly .223? No, you want to hit them with the biggest round you can afford to shoot regularly, and the logical answer to that is the 7.62x39 intermediate. Sure you could use special .223 loads to try and equal 7.62 performance, but again you've gotta think $ per round.  And screw those exotic rounds that all the tacticool types like to show off with- 300 blackout, 458 socom, 6.5, etc etc. They cost a lot of money to shoot regularly, and why would you devote more money to something than you have to? A gun is a tool, don't forget that.

Finally, practice firing your rifle, and your pistol equally and in varied situations. I'd say at least twice a month hit the range and put at least a hundred rounds through both to keep you sharp. You are more likely to use the pistol in real life situations, so if you must prioritize one then make it the pistol. There are tons of drills to practice that you can watch on youtube. Don't be that guy that just tries to shoot bullseyes at 500 yards all day long. That's not realistic.

I'm not much of a shot gun guy if I'm honest. I've got a 20g I shoot trap and skeet with sometimes but other than that I'm into rifles. 12g is just too much kick and too unwieldy to get off multiple effective shots IMO. However, I don't think you could really go wrong unloading a 12g in someones face with buck or bird in the chamber. At the end of the day the idea is to end the threat, and even if he isn't dead, I highly highly doubt someone would be interested in a fight after taking a round to the chest from either type of shell.

No I'm 6 feet and over 200lbs. I'm just not a huge fan of shotguns. I've shot a lot of them when I Was younger, and they have a lot of limitations. I'd never keep one in my car on its own, because they are nigh on useless past 50 yards. Sure you can hit with buck at 50 yds, but how reliably is the question? Why leave your life to chance? They are a good supporting tool for exceptional situations when you need a strong force multiplier quickly, sporting use and for hunting game. Also reloading takes a lot longer, and you have a quite limited ammunition supply in the weapon itself.

how did that work out for the good people in philadelphia when the gov bombed a residential area. i'm quite sure the residents were armed

the argument that your guns can protect against a rogue government is even more ridiculous than the "guns don't kill people" mantra. LOL


Look at the difficulty that the US military is having in Iraq.   You are talking about something that you don't understand.

Yes that is my argument when liberals say our guns are useless against a tyrannical government. Yes they can bomb the shit out of us but we can take tons of pot shots at them like what happened in Iraq.

PHILADELPHIA, May 13, 1985 - A state police helicopter this evening dropped a bomb on a house occupied by an armed group after a 24-hour siege involving gun battles. The resulting fire spread to about 60 other homes. This explains why in the photo the walls between the houses are intact.  The group, MOVE's protests were against police violence and the incarceration of members most rankled authorities.

For clarity, (according to CBS) residents had been ordered to evacuate the area before the bomb was dropped.  A resulting fire is what destroyed the other houses not a giant bomb.

I don't know all the details and at least on the surface I disagree with the decision to bomb the house. However, the photos give the appearance that the police randomly dropped a bomb on a residential area without warning.  They did not.

I will say I partly agree with you in that it is a little naive because Americans are much softer and pussified than your average Iraqi.

There may not be enough people to follow through with the pot shots to disrupt thing like in Iraq. We have been conditioned to obey.

MOVE bombing. Black separatists in Philadelphia got a bomb dropped on them by the police -

I was 19 and living in Philly at the time and working at a local music store.  Everyone had their TV's tuned in to local news who covered it live.  It was bizarre.  It had a 9/11 feel to it, but on a much smaller scale.  Wilson Goode was the mayor and authorized the whole thing.  Interesting thing was, he was black.  A white mayor could've never gotten away with this.

Also, IIRC, the point was to take out the one building with explosive, but it turns out that the philly PD aren’t professional sappers and started a fire that consumed the entire block. Government stupidity and malevolence in one package.

best to have several different guns hidden through out the house...... you never know where you're going to be when someone comes through the door.

also its of benefit to have diffefent types of knives,  pepper sprays and/or batons stashed around as well. they are cheap and easy to obtain and could give you an added advantage.

revolvers dont malfunction....ever.  but have limited firing capacity.

semi autos offer greater firing capacity and are easier to reload but can malfunction , if gun is jerked during the firing cycle stove pipes double feed, coil springs break etc... and those kinds of things happen under stress: being in a shootout is much different than shooting at the range...
shltguns are also a good option. ability to shoot and kill through drywall, doors. powerfull advantage and relatively inexpensive option for a long gun of course gun nuts love their AR's.....

you also have to consider your backstop especially if you have children in the home. limited penetration expanding rounds are available but you shouldnt pull the triger unless you know exactly what your shooting at anyway so why use the most lethal round. limited penetration rounds are questionable. dont have to worry as muc about your backstop but it could allow the target to survive. if you know what you're shooting at and justified in doing so then you want to shoot kill and end it quickly.

best advice is to reinforce your doors and windows use larger screws in the frames and hinges, thicker glass etc.own a large dog too... it wont stop someone but it will slow them down long enough to muster and arm your family.

Ummmmmm, I was born and raised in NYC and went to an all black high school, which is/was overrun by bloods, crips, and latin kings. I hung out on Jamaica Avenue and Sutphin Blvd in Queens (look them up). It is currently the 2nd worst ranked highschool in NYC. Even when I attended it, it was a horrible high school. I also did part of my training in South Central LA, working in gang ridden areas. So, please, tell me again, how foreign this environment is to me? lol.  But, hey, whatever you have to tell yourself about me.  :D :D :D So, basically, your whole statement about me is false.

I didn't say that Cucker, learn to read.  I just think it's important to add some relevant details rather than just posting a picture that creates a false impression.

The people whose houses were burned were evacuated firsts and were compensated for their house being burned.  It matters.

hey look no hard feelings allright. the Jay picture was pretty funny but since you're  gonna resort to name calling......

i dont care enoug about you to tell myself anything about you. NYC is a different animal than Detroit. there are still loads of great nighborhoods in NYC. high priced nieghborhoods, real estate through the roof. Even with the masssssive difference in population Detroit has more murders ( im pretty sure at a flat rate too not per capita) by far. dont tell me about high school or that you "hung out" on Jamaica Ave. what a joke. thats your street cred? that you "hung out" on Jamaica Ave. so you and some of your candy ass friends drove down there one night to buy a bag of weed? Lol. great. my wife and all her girls "hung out" in Jamaica queens all the time when she lived in NY. LOL im gliad you survived to tell us about it. maybe you and my woman can get together with her girlfriends a compare notes on how tough it was "hanging out" on Jamaica Ave. if you had any street sense at all you wouldnt be asking getbiggers what kind of gun to get for home protection. but since you did- you can read my post again.

You stated that those environments were totally foreign to me: you were wrong. Then, you change by saying, "NYC is a different animal than Detroit" after I asserted that those types of neighborhoods were not foreign to me. Then, you assume that you know how often I hung out in those neighborhoods and with who. Wrong again. I hung out practically every day in those neighborhoods, as well as different neighborhoods in Brooklyn and Harlem. Either way, you were wrong, you just don't want to admit. You made an assumption about me and likely assumed I grew up in a small town in Arkansas with 100 white people (just an example). No matter what I say, you're going to try and discredit me. You didn't hang out there long enough, you didn't hang out with this person, blah, blah, blah. Like most kids in big cities, I've seen similar stuff as you. Does it give me street credit? Nope, not at all. I am 36. I dont want street credit. I mean, how old are you? lol. I never said it did give me street credit. It just proves you wrong that those neighborhoods are foreign to me by providing you with anecdotal evidence. Nothing more, nothing less.

As for having street sense, of course I have street sense, just in different ways. I am 36 now. At my age, does it really matter what area I hang out in? Even if I learned about guns during my younger days, its not something that would stick me. Further, there have been gun advances in the last, say, 20-25 years, thus asking for gun advice.

Ill most likely go with a standard 9 millimeter glock.

Thus, your story is not even remotely close.

Beakdoctor: Yo, DETROIT, DETROIT, DETROIT!!
Guy: What have you experienced?
Beakdoctor: Yo, I saw a friend get shot.
Guy: Um, I know of that shooting and it was a bibigun.
Beakdoctor: YO, yo, DETROIT, DETROIT, DETROIT! I saw a buddy of mine get shot, for real.
Guy: Yeah, that didn't happen. I heard that your friend got his wallet picked and the guy ran.
Beakdoctor: Yo, you don't know where I grew up in. DETROIT, DETROIT, DETROIT! I was robbed at gunpoint! Straight up!! DETROIT, DETROIT, DETROIT!
Guy: I know the guy that robbed you. He approached you, pushed you to the ground and stole your wallet.
Beakdoctor: I got mad STREET CREDIT STILL!! DETROIT, DETROIT, DETROIT!!
Guy: So, basically, all of these minor events that have happened to you, have happened to a lot of inner city kids. Great!!

You were dismissive about my experience (you even wrote a "funny" skit about it), hence I gave it right back to you. Don't whine when someone dishes it back to you.

Hmmm, more attacking, because you attacked me first, then I give it back to you, then you cry that I am being dismissive.

Yes, I read your statement and was posted the Cutler pic as a joke. Geez, get a drip dude. That pic is posted tons of times on here whenever we discuss war or guns here. Again, a joke.

You don't know anything about my life experience, nor my beliefs or ideals. I didn't care to know anything about you, but you chose to share some life experiences in response to a comical Jay Cutler pic. Geez.  :-\ :-\

best to have several different guns hidden through out the house...... you never know where you're going to be when someone comes through the door.

also its of benefit to have diffefent types of knives,  pepper sprays and/or batons stashed around as well. they are cheap and easy to obtain and could give you an added advantage.

revolvers dont malfunction....ever.  but have limited firing capacity.

semi autos offer greater firing capacity and are easier to reload but can malfunction , if gun is jerked during the firing cycle stove pipes double feed, coil springs break etc... and those kinds of things happen under stress: being in a shootout is much different than shooting at the range...
shltguns are also a good option. ability to shoot and kill through drywall, doors. powerfull advantage and relatively inexpensive option for a long gun of course gun nuts love their AR's.....

you also have to consider your backstop especially if you have children in the home. limited penetration expanding rounds are available but you shouldnt pull the triger unless you know exactly what your shooting at anyway so why use the most lethal round. limited penetration rounds are questionable. dont have to worry as muc about your backstop but it could allow the target to survive. if you know what you're shooting at and justified in doing so then you want to shoot kill and end it quickly.

best advice is to reinforce your doors and windows use larger screws in the frames and hinges, thicker glass etc.own a large dog too... it wont stop someone but it will slow them down long enough to muster and arm your family.

Revolvers do malfunction.  Hope this helps.

So, you're basically insinuating that someone with all this street credit (beakdoctor) does not know anything about guns by providing me with wrong information? haha lol.

And, yet, he told me that I would know about guns if I had street credit, yet he is giving me wrong information about guns.  :D :D

From an article: "Revolvers Don’t Jam & Other Firearms Myths."

This is why I love getbig!! Everyone is a badass expert from the streets who knows everything, until they get proven wrong.  :D :D :D

Thanks Twaddle. I would not buy a revolver anyway.

Revolvers are simple tools, but they are not unfailing.  They can malfunctions just like any other firearm.  If beakdoktor thinks revolvers can't malfunction, he is mistaken.  I've had both Ruger and S&W revolvers malfunction.

Well, I just watched quite a few youtube videos of people demonstrating how revolvers can in fact jam in certain ways.

But, I guess there are a multitude of ways that a gun can malfunction: jamming being one way.

Correct.  If you're truly serious about getting a firearm for the house, go to your local gun range, and rent several pistols and revolvers.  Decide what you like best, and what you shoot the easiest.

yep thats exactly what hes saying and thats why hes wrong. if hes had not one but two revolvers malfunction then he doesnt know what hes doing. he either doesnt know how to take care of it, shoot it pr load it. of course nothing is infallible but it is highly unusual for revolvers to malfunction. if yors malfunction repeatedly, lord only knows how the fuck youre handling them.......so SF please take your advice from the guy whose guns always malfunction. you two make a good team.

I've shot rifles, shot guns and handguns.

I've always liked handguns, but a lot of people are saying that a shotgun is better for home protection.

I guess Ill cross that bridge when I purchase a firearm.

I don't really think there is one answer. For example. I have trained on a number of weapons. For my house, I have a Beretta 9000 affixed behind my night stand. I have a M&P 40 under the coffee table. I have zero expectation of using them for home defense as the stats just don't make it very probable but in the event it happens, I am confident with either I can likely come out on top. My wife, not so hot on shooting skills. She has a single shot 12 gauge with buckshot under her side of the bed. if she hits fine.. if she misses fine, that kind of sound.. the average burglar will be crapping their pants to get out of the house.

Yeah, it seems like its really coming down to personal comfort, as I will probably get 100 different answers. Opinions on guns are like opinions on weightlifting: everyone has an opinion on how to get 18" guns (that was a good pun).  :D :D  ;D ;D

You're exactly right.  Everyone will have a different opinion.  Get something you're comfortable with, can afford, and can practice with.  Springfield, Glock, and M&P all make great firearms.

I bought a 22 cal western style revolver when I was in my early 20's. Cheap gun, might have bought it from Walmart. Thing was more unreliable than a $400 1990 Hyundai. I've fired 1000's of rounds through my berretta Centurion and never had a jam. I've also had to return a 92FS Beretta because it jammed almost every time.

My point is.. I have no point  :)

IMO that Taurus raging judge is a poor option. Taurus is not terrible but not a great reputation.

Also the 454 casull is a huge load more suited for bears. And it also takes the 410 shotgun shell which is underpowered for home defense.

I would agree that revolvers are very dependable as long as you buy a decent one. Other than the crap no name I bought from Walmart, I can't think of a single time a revolver has malfunctioned. And if you do get a bad round, you just pull the trigger again. Can't get any simpler than that
