[QUOTE=Zatharon;19328624]At close range it wont matter as much, and I can 100% guarantee you that a .380 shot at close range will penetrate more than enough to put someone down, especially with multiple shots on target, which would be the primary advantage of using a low power 9mm, being able to shoot accurately multiple times quicker.[/QUOTE]
I will grant your point about control-ability, but history and science both show that .380 is not [i]consistently[/i] effective as a manstopper. .22LR can and has also killed people and animals, but you don't go deer hunting with a .22. I said it before, and I'll say it again, no man in a firefight ever wished he had a smaller gun of lesser caliber that held fewer bullets.

[QUOTE=EurofanBMW;19329151]Also, I don't aggree with people who say, "bIrDsHoT DosNt WoRk". It can EASILY penetrate. In fact, birdshot can easily KILL a person.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=professional;19321750]This will probably crawl up the ass of many here, but you know what's a far better investment for home defense than a firearm? A trained protection dog.
Here's why:
A) Deterrent. You don't keep your firearms in plain view. A large aggressive dog poses a psychological threat.
B) Alarm and control. A dog can simultaneously isolate and alert you to the position of a threat inside of your house.
C) Iniative and ferocity. A trained protection dog has both these qualities, qualities that win fights. While most humans will "freeze" when placed in a fight or flight situation for the first time, a trained dog will not. As such, they will always take the iniative.
Besides if you have a family, the dog will make a great pet. Contrary to popular belief protection dogs aren't devoid of personality or playfulness. They can however, be high tension. Combine with a smart firearm decision, and you've got a solid home protection investment.[/QUOTE]
but if the guy who just broke into your house shoots the dog, then wtf are you going to do then? Throw a book at him? I think i would preffer a gun over a dog because nothing gets a robber out of your house like a bigass fucking spas-12 autoshotty or a mossberg 935. So, in the battle against the robber with the glock 9, i would rather a 12-gauge that shoots out a hugeass chunk of lead rather than a dog that bites with 200 pounds of force. And i wouldnt have my gun hidden, i would have that bitch in plain sight with a siren thing on my front door so that i would have both a gun and a startled crook with me. And trust me, i dont miss when i have the pressure of battle on me. I fucking thrive on insanity!

Fixed.
So we went to a gun/outdoor store and went searching for a Mosin Nagant. We didn't find one, but I did see more guns in once place than I ever have before. Some of the notable ones I saw were a Kar98k, Desert Eagle ($900 hahaha), a revolver at least a foot and a half long ($2000 or so. Yes, $2000), a few 50 caliber rifles, an MP5 that shoots 22s (we might get one because it's cheap) and lots of others.
Must have been at least a thousand different guns there. The only other gunstore I've been to only has about 50 rifles and 30-40 pistols.
Edit:
To below post: $400-500, I couldn't see the tag, but that's how much it goes for other places.

What did you do to that poor 10/22?
That almost brought tears to my eyes... Damn man....
This is how you're supposed to customize a 10/22:
[img]http://www.1022.ca/StockDup/march10/Canadian_Custom_Ruger_10_22_1975_s.JPG[/img]
It's not an AR15 tacticool rifle, stop pretending that it is.
Also, pistol grip on a mossberg is WORTHLESS. You can't access the safety. It's fine on a remington but not a mossberg. Get a proper stock on that shotgun so you can actually use it.
[editline]07:39AM[/editline]
I just want to let you know, #4 buckshot is still acceptable for home defense if there's a possibility of over penetration being a problem. #4 is still .22 caliber
As for your recommendation on 9mm, yea, sure. But only in +p+ loadings. It'll come very close to a .357 magnum in muzzle energy, believe it or not.[/QUOTE]
Haha have you ever heard of a Run and Gun? Why the hell would I want a huge ass scope on the gun? Red dot is easier to get on target while on the move. Access the safety? Why have the safety on? Its for home defense, I don't carry my handguns with the safety on. O wait that's right they don't have one, don't rely on a safety rely on good training. Heres an example of a Run and Gun, not the best because he is slow but its an example. [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qu8JeMUox0Y[/url]

What do you mean you don't use safety? It's there for a reason; EVERYONE with a gun ALWAYS use safety, no matter how good their training is. People like you are the ones who shouldn't be allowed to own a gun. Also, Run and Gun? What are you, 12? Guns are meant to be accurate, and should be shot in a stationary position unless it is used for defense, i.e. military, police, self-defense, etc. Red dot scopes are also more expensive than your traditional scope.
