Mr green peace sir, do you shoot? Originally Posted by Tiffany BlueOnce upon a time, Ms. Tiffany, no longer, and broadheads. 60-70 lbs only. The composite bows here are way, way higher tech than anything I have imagined.
I shoot a glock 26 9 mil subcompact Originally Posted by Tiffany BlueI try to urge owners to take an additional step of learning to use professional flashlights that can be used as a weapon themselves [no need to get into that aspect], and to remember that in times of emergency, not knowing what one is shooting at [or being in the dark] can become a grave problem. Light can also blind and startle an opponent, an extra bonus. The flashlight itself is a tough weapon should the handgun misfire.
I agree with you on the flashlight I do have one and carry that also. Don't apologize I am interested in what you say Originally Posted by Tiffany BlueI am personally a pessimist, but not a fearmonger, having grown up in impossible situations. I worry if intruders have enough savvy to wear leather jackets, or even a light kevlar vest. The latter would be too smart a thing to do I suppose! But not necessarily the former.

Leather, silk and some types of polyester weaves, like rayon, do absorb a bit of the 9mm's punch, especially from angles, if one is shooting from a bed towards a standing intruder and your arm is at an awkward angle and you are a bit startled. Just helps to mentally factor these things in advance, as I am sure all will do.
A good pump action deer rifle chambered for NATO 7.62 mm ammunition is a wonderful thing to get to know, just for kicks, and become friendly with. A 21 inch barrel, is a good thing and a pump-action shotgun of this dimension even better. It is a most useful customer at close range for a certain species, although lousy for hunting. It cradles straight and true, light enough to be held in many positions, even lying down.
Useful to be taken in cars as a sporting weapon and not require many restrictive regulations. It blows a big hole without any doubt. Even kevlar etc. will not prevent a huge shock wave, a disabling one in the /chest region. Just point in the general direction and shoot, an advantage few handguns can match!
These are foolish thoughts, not necessarily practical for everyone. But if buying a second firearm..... Originally Posted by greenpeace2014
