If a person does not possess the confidence to face an opponent empty

disable an opponent bare handed. Those who must rely on a weapon just
demonstrate their own inadequacy, although, it DOES make it a hell of a

Ultimately, the pen *is* mightier than the sword.



If someone breaks into my house at night while we are at home, he is going
to be facing a firearm pointed at him.

A friend of mine has one of those J frame 5 shot revolvers. It's a

a stubbie .38 - I shot it a couple of times - nice weapon.

Ruger makes a six shot .357 in a stubbie version - can't remember the
exact model number - I like that one a lot.

They are talking about having a renewable carry permit here in CT -
I'm not sure I could qualify to carry anymore. Hopefully, they will
grandfather previous permits over.

Karate is great, unless the other guy has a .44 magnum pointed at your

Black pepper. *I had a self defense guru tell me one time that for

Tom, that's fine if you have the pepper.

Gosh, just what are you shooting at offhand at 45 yards with improved

I have the .357 model 60 J frame 5 shot. I have a Safariland paddle that

Smith. At times, I like my Ruger P93DC just for firepower. It rides
pretty comfortably on my appendix in a Galco. But still, the 3AT is a

I'm good for concealed carry from Delaware down to Florida, but I rarely
carry unless we're taking a road trip down I-95 to Florida and we'll be
driving at night. I don't drive north much these days, just a quick trip
last summer to Connecticut.

Yep.

The concept has been around for a while. Based on what I know, it
seems like an awful lot of work to produce a rather insignificant
increase in output - the input/output energy ratio if you will.

I mean if you have to power the thing with a nuclear reactor to get a
reactors worth of output plus 20% what's the point?

Unless there is some significant and major development in containment
technology, this is only an interesting experiment. And while it may
advance the fusion power knowledge base, which is a good thing (I'm
all for research and development), I still think that the only usable
fusion power in quantities to power everything and anything, will be
free space fusion power contained by magnetic bottles rather than
physical bottles and that is only going to be done in space - not here
on Earth where it is needed.

It's a Holy Grail type search. I'm all for going for it, but I'm not
holding out hope we'll get there in the next 50 years.

An absolutely idiotic choice for a home defense weapon. Crikey, it must
weigh four pounds. It's big, bulky, and fires a round that will likely
go right through a house wall, through a neighbor's house wall, and kill
that neighbor's cocker spaniel.

It's sort of the Cigarette boat of pistols, used, no doubt, by the same
sort of guys.

I have the Ruger GP 100. It fits my hand the best of almost any gun I own.
I also own a Colt Police Special in .22 LR caliber that was a training
pistol for the Chicago PD way back when. Identical to the .38 except
caliber. Even has the department holster. That one feels like a glove,
too. Yes, the Rugers are large for concealed carry, but one instructor I
talked to here said it was the only thing to have, shoulder holster and all.
But then, he is just a tad more than weird. Short dick syndrome, I think.

When I renewed my Utah CCF, all I had to do was send a current picture. It
took about a week. Of course, I did have to stuff the envelope with the
required amount of $$$, too. I hope yours is that easy. Utah has had
controversy lately over their V-E-R-Y lax certification process and
instructors. It seems illogical that something as important as a recert
would not AT LEAST require a vision test or shooting test. What if a person
has lost a lot of their sight, or hasn't shot a gun since last cert? It
lost its reciprocity with Nevada for not having a live fire certification,
so now when I go to Vegas (as I do tomorrow) I can only carry in the car,
and have to carry pepper spray in the field. But lots of times, I do carry
my Kel-Tec, as it is still registered there, and I have a boatload of
relatives in the department. Some of the laws were changed this year, and I
need to get up to speed on those.

Good luck. No warning shots. Center mass.

I have always loved the looks of the Mossberg Mariner. And that nine shot
tube under the barrel makes it look like a 12 ga. over and under, 12 ga on

I held a Nevada for about 15 years when I resided there, and some of that
for a couple of years now that I moved to Utah. It's a two day process plus
it's spendy. Just not worth it. I'm out in the field less now, and my big
jug of pepper spray and karate workouts are fine. All our work is daytime
now, and we rarely have to go into the bad sections of town any more.
Besides, things have changed, and now the bad guys just start shooting with
no reason, provocation, or warning. Best thing is tactical retreat.

About as simple as a Model A Ford.

A few years ago, there was a survey about the top ten weapons that
changed modern warfare. For some reason, the RPG and AK-47 were placed
10th and 3rd respectively. I would argue that you could make the case
for either the RPG or AK-47 as number one - tied even.

I disagree with you on one point - even in local manufacturer mode
where the firing mechanism, chamber and barrels are supplied and the
stocks are made out of local materials they are a quality weapon for a
guerilla unit or assault force. They maintain reasonable accuracy even
when abused. I do agree with you on it's ability to hold up under
abuse - you can fire the damned things until the barrel is smooth as
glass and it still shoots reasonably straight over short distances.
It's a combination of relaxed machining standards and the metal alloys
they use to build the business ends. It's not so much how they are
made as how they are used and in that sense, it's an outstanding
weapon.

The one who is owned by somebody who knows somebody that knows
somebody who knows somebody else (wink wink - nudge nudge) is Russian
in origin built in '66 and part of Russian military aid to the NVA. A
war souvenir and shipped back to the states in pieces.

Of course I can't "directly" verify any of that - wink wink - nudge
nudge. :)

And Tom, if the .44 gave you that much grief, If I were you, I'd
seriously consider leaving the Desert Eagle alone.

seriously.

I did qualify that with a "maybe". :)

Somebody that I know who knows somebody that knows somebody who knows
somebody else (wink wink - nudge nudge) has an AK that, um..."works"
if you get my drift. He had it up at the Turkey Shoot the other day -
man, it still shoots sweet as can be.

That's one fine weapon.

For a piece of **** manufactured gun you can drag through the mud and then
fire two magazines of ammo, yes, it is one fine weapon. Looks like the damn
things will last until you fire the bore smooth, and then just keep firing.
About as simple as a Model A Ford.

A few years ago, there was a survey about the top ten weapons that
changed modern warfare. For some reason, the RPG and AK-47 were placed
10th and 3rd respectively. I would argue that you could make the case
for either the RPG or AK-47 as number one - tied even.

I disagree with you on one point - even in local manufacturer mode
where the firing mechanism, chamber and barrels are supplied and the
stocks are made out of local materials they are a quality weapon for a
guerilla unit or assault force. They maintain reasonable accuracy even
when abused. I do agree with you on it's ability to hold up under
abuse - you can fire the damned things until the barrel is smooth as
glass and it still shoots reasonably straight over short distances.
It's a combination of relaxed machining standards and the metal alloys
they use to build the business ends. It's not so much how they are
made as how they are used and in that sense, it's an outstanding
weapon.

The one who is owned by somebody who knows somebody that knows
somebody who knows somebody else (wink wink - nudge nudge) is Russian
in origin built in '66 and part of Russian military aid to the NVA. A
war souvenir and shipped back to the states in pieces.

Of course I can't "directly" verify any of that - wink wink - nudge
nudge. :)


What's the big deal? If you can fog a mirror and are sans
felony/domestic violence convictions, you can have a Class III firearm
transferred to you.

It costs $200 for the transfer.

At least a third of the guys I shoot with out in Virginia have full-auto
firearms legally in their possession.

Hell, just learn how to bump that Desert Eagle and you, too, can enjoy
the great fun of a really rapid fire pistol.

Karate is great, unless the other guy has a .44 magnum pointed at your
head.

Black pepper. I had a self defense guru tell me one time that for
close in mugging, nothing beats a palm full of black pepper in the
face.

When you think about it, makes perfect sense.

I also like the small personal Tasers. Those look like a fairly
decent issue to use - non-lethal and you can deal out some punishment
without getting too close. :)

Pepper in one hand, taser in the other, .44 magnum in back pocket.
Sounds good to me.

I believe I previously stated having a pistol like that is like have a
"cigarette-type penis boat," and that the same sort of guys would have
one, the other, or both.

I have no idea what purpose a pistol like that serves. I guess some guys
hunt with it. But it's too big and clumsy to use as an "oh-my-god-that
grizzly-is-charging" gun. It's certainly not a pistol for defense or
offense.

I looked it up. It *does* weigh about four pounds. Just what I'd want
for offhand shooting. :)

To each his/her own. There's no accounting for taste, right? My taste
gravitates towards finesse - old Porsches, Jags, Healeys, not Corvettes,
Hemis, or hot-rod Lincolns. :)

YES! That's what I'm talkin' about.

I don't have a semi-auto pistol. Now you've got me drooling. I'll have
to check on the next Virginia gun show in the area. You've never seen
so many guns in one place.

Speaking of propitious. Would you look at this:
