I had a .357 Magnum revolver. It was the S&W 627 Performance Center
model. It was impressive but once I got over the "new-ness" of it, I
sorta lost interest in it. Just made a little larger hole in paper
targets with a lot more noise and greater expense per round. I've posted
the link to a YouTube video here in the past of shooting it at the range.

I am at the point where all I am interested in is something for home
defense in the improbable chance anyone tried to enter our house with
criminal intent and a small concealed carry pistol for the even rarer
times I carry .... which is only when we are going somewhere that could
represent a higher than normal risk. Doesn't happen often.

The little .38 Special and the Sig 226 will serve those purposes. May
not put someone big down but they will catch his attention.
Still debating about getting rid of the Walther though. It's a very
nice, accurate handgun, but a little too big for concealed carry purposes.

Guns don't fascinate me but as we get older we may need a fighting
chance if anything bad happens.

In the house I am showing up with a .45 but if it is just the 2 of us,
I will hole up in the bedroom, call 911 and drop anyone who comes
through the door.
It gets a lot more complicated if the kids are here.
I do think the dog helps. I can let the dog investigate bumps in the
night. I only hope he lives through it.

The lab I had (Sam Adams) would lick him to death.

What ever it takes to distract the guy. Most people get a little
nervous when an 80-100 pound dog comes toward them at night,
particularly if he is barking.
For the home owner, just the fact that the dog is alerted is enough to
warn them that things are not normal.

He didn't mention his other dog, Fudge. One look from him and you
know you are in the wrong place at the wrong time.
