A shotgun is much better for home defense than a pistol.



I always hear that but I wonder if the theory has ever been tested.



Where do you keep this shotgun and what kind is it?



Do you keep it loaded?



What ammo?



Are you planning on just hiding behind the bed or are you going to

leave your bedroom?



I really question the idea of getting to a long gun safe, loading a

tube fed shotgun and actually maneuvering around the house with a full

sized sporting shotgun without someone taking it away from you.

If you are loaded with 00 buck, you might as well be using a .45 as

far as over penetration goes and the pattern on an 18" cylinder bore

is still going to be a couple inches at any range you are likely to

have in the house so you still have to aim. Where is the advantage?



That Biden quote may have been the stupidest thing I have ever heard,

even from Biden.



...and putting it under your pillow is not very comfortable.





A freind suggested the Judge with two snake eaters, then two wad

cutters".. Said "you hit 'em in the face twice with the snakeeaters,

then while they are laying on the floor, ask them if they want to taste

the wadcutters in the next two chambers"

A Judge? Now those things are neat. a pistol that shoots a .410 shotgun round. Yeah, I can see that peppering someone with bird shot at least once if not twice, then block busters for further non compliance.


Good call!
