My new home defense tool

Great choice for a weapon (the audible power of a pump shotgun can end a gunfight before it begins)  but the ammo might a bit much for home defense.  00 will cut through the entire house.  I've read the ideal shell is squirrel shot (#6).  It'll blow a hole through a 2x12 at close range but is unlikely to make it through several walls.  One round down a hallway with that cannon and most perps will jump out a window.

I'd still keep the .45 handy.  In case they're slow learners.  ; )

Mossberg 500?  I've always liked the look of the 590, especially with a bayonet fitted!

For self-defense I have S&W Model 66 .357 4" and Remington M870 tactical 18" loaded w/deer slugs  

I see nothing wrong with the post. Nice toy though.

Great choice for home defense. I keep a Remington 870 12 Ga. with a folder handy.

I for one have no problem with this post,it conforms to the rules.Although when I opened it,I thought I was going to see a picture of your new dog

I've never been to a range that allows alley sweepers. Costs too much to keep replacing the target posts.

Nice looking weapon. For the record I keep a 45 colt and a 12 gauge close at hand.I live alone no children or angry wives to concern myself with.

Don't you have Grandkids, Mike?

This is the only off-topic forum on this site.

The forum rules state: "You're invited to discuss those things not strictly related to scale modeling."

That's why.

Years ago we used to chat about different things like this on here. Maybe things have changed as I haven't been around much for a few years. I'm an old timer on here.

Hope you feel more secure, but what in the world does this have to do with scale modeling? I'm not in any way opposed to our gun rights, hunting or ant other issue about that, but you're showing us a 1:1 fully operable rifle. Shouldn't that post in some other forum?
