and ammo to hold off the criminal element for days until law
enforcement gets back on line. They will move on to easier pickins
after only a minute of trying to get into my house.


You may only get into worse trouble. You might attract
heavyier caliber return fire, or you may become all that
much more attractive a target for theives who want your gun
& ammo.

Unless one has the capability... physical, intellectual,
emotional, whatever.... to deliberately kill another human
being without so much as an eyeblink of hesitation... one is
better off with a different means of deterrent than a gun.
That's the whole point of a great deal of military & police
training.

The next step is skill with the weapon. Special forces guys
average 200 rounds per day of live fire training! Join a gun
club and get into good practice. It's fun, too.
