    Man killed attempting to stop a carjacking

    No. In my case, defense of others is reserved for family / loved ones. Aside from that the duty is to escape, not engage. Depending on the situation I could make an exception but the odds of winning the Power Ball would be better.

    Door Barricade Brackets for exterior doors

    I’m in the process of having security screen doors installed. Anyone that wants into the house will have to break a window and climb through…

    Can you reasonably get to your HD gun in an HD situation?

    My wife and I each keep a 38 in the nightstand and at bedtime I bring the G19 with me. The two 38s never leave but in the morning I take the G19 to my home office where I spend most of my day. So basically we have guns on each side of the home. We also keep doors and windows locked when home.

    You Are the Target in a Home Invasion Scenario. Which Defensive Weapon Do You Reach For First?

    Agree. I keep a G19 in the bedroom and would work my way to my AR or 12GA if needed. I keep them loaded in my home office where I spend most of my time during the day.

    HK SP5 Pistol

    I just purchased a new HK SP5 and I’d like to install a red dot optic. Based on what I’ve been reading, co-witness with the stock iron sights would be ideal. Any suggestions on rail and optic? Also, the gun came with a single point bungee sling. Any suggestions on a replacement? The bungee...

    Home Defense

    Thanks for the feedback "old lady new shooter". I did know about the 11:00 to 15:00 window, Monday - Friday, the time and days a home is most often not occupied. Once when I was 12 years old, dad was at work and mom was doing the grocery shopping and I was home sick from school watching Price is...

    Home Defense

    I live in a 55+ community in Tucson, AZ (~1600 homes and growing) that is gated but far from "secure" and my house backs up to a dry shallow wash that exists to channel water during monsoon season. The wash contains river rock which are large stones that are slightly bigger than a softball. Our...

    Why You Do Not Want Perry Mason (or Atticus Finch)

    Most likely a jury of your peers won’t be your peers at all. The state will try to keep gun people and critical thinkers off the jury. The state will target those that watch CNN and MSNCB all day and don’t understand why people need to own firearms when we have the police to call. o_O

    Anyone ever need to draw their CCW?

    Long story short… in 2014 I was followed into a gas station parking lot at about 4:45am. I pulled up to a pump and they parked parallel to the building across 5 parking spots, directly across from me. They had their brights on and were in the shadow of the building. They could see me but I...

    bumpstock ban process

    I don’t think we’ll see an injunction. The ATF has gone down this road before e.g. calling a semiautomatic that fires from an open bolt a machine gun. The long game is a complete disarming of the public. It’s just a matter of not letting a crisis go to waste, removing one brick at a time and...

    Are BB guns firearms?

    In MN they are firearms. A convicted felon received another five years for having a BB gun in his vehicle. Oops.

    Are airguns legal for felons

    In September 2015 "David Lee Haywood" got 5 years for unlawful possession of a BB gun - He had a prior (2005) felony drug conviction. The MN Appeals Court upheld the conviction because the BB gun qualified as a handgun under state law. In your case, you would probably want to talk with an...

    Martial law

    The "Posse Comitatus Act" was amended October 17, 2006 when signed into law by GW Bush. Katrina is a good example where civilian leadership directed law enforcement to confiscate firearms regardless of legal standing. Government does what they want when they want and relies on the fact that...

    How is this legal?

    yugorpk, You are finding all the ATF sting operations on eBay and Amazon. :eek: ** A pistol can become a rifle and converted back to a pistol but a rifle can never become a pistol (NFA violation). The nice thing about buying stripped lowers or pistol lowers is you have the flexibility to...

    What's really going on ?

    It is a pandering point for the DFL to get left voters in most cases. In other cases, such as Obama, he is actually dumb enough to believe gun control prevents gun violence. Laws are created to prosecute people after the crime has been committed. Laws don't actually prevent crime... gun violence...

    Another Example of: If you draw a gun you need to be prepared to use it

    This cop didn't have a round chambered and he ended up dead as a result: Security footage HERE.

    Found out my neighbor is a "Fudd"

    I was at Sportsmen's Warehouse about 4 years ago looking at handguns and some cowboy was looking at bolt action rifles just down the counter from me. He looked over and said handguns were only used to kill people. I didn't bother with a response. Not worth the energy.

    Is it rude to ask someone if they are carrying?

    I would say yes it is rude. Even worse is when the acquaintance sweeps your waistline with their hand in search of a gun. I wanted to punch him but just reminded myself that he was an idiot. No cool. :fire:

    Another Example of: If you draw a gun you need to be prepared to use it

    In Ayoob's MAG20 class he said that if you are holding someone at gun point and they continue to advance, a reasonable and prudent person should conclude that the perpetrator believes they have the skills to disarm you and use the gun against you. Ayoob finished with... If the gun is in your...
