That's an ad for better shot placement and using hollow point ammo. But yes, you should be able to buy any kind of mag you want. I'll never abide by such a stupid law.

I was thinking the same thing. A 45acp or a 44 ![]() In the video the bad guys were lucky there weren't some Maoris living in the house. They probably would have invited them in to use the phone, beaten the sh it out of them and stolen their guns. Last edited by Bill Douglas; 05-05-2013 at 09:16 PM.. |

I don't know how I'd react under such stress. But it seems to me, if I were just investigating, I'd have a handgun. If I knew gunplay were likely, I'd go for my AR or shotgun. I don't answer my door for unexpected visitors at any time of the day. If I had any kind of weird feeling, which I'd certainly have in this case, where you can see the silhouette through the glass, I'd not even go to the door unarmed. Bedside gun is a .357SIG, whose ballistics easily match those of a .45ACP and I have 15+1 rds. in there.

Rather interesting. I'm not always cool calm and collected, but I had a situation where a gun was used to stop, to stop the situation, I guess I was in adrenaline mode but I was one cool customer aiming between the eyes, light finger on the trigger. The bad guys skidded to a halt, didn't move for a while, then ran for their lives. |

Scaring off a bad guy is one thing. When they come in the house with a gun and your wife and daughter are behind you, that steps it up a few levels. In most places in the US, that's instant grounds for justified use deadly force. I guess it'd be an easy decision if I were the only thing between bad guy and wife and child. But you know you're in it to win it at that point. No game of chicken or hoping he runs off. It's go time.

What's that saying; I'd rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6.
I'm not 100% but certainly like to let my self defense instincts kick in when they need too. |
