Reason to be armed...

[Chopper]

Some folks just need shooting! That easy.....(the Germans call it "The face that screams for my fist" or something like that)

Why are they drinking and driving??? Sounds to me like a situation that would have never happend if they were sober. It scares me knowing that these guys that can barely speak properly, guzzling down booze while wheeling, are toting around loaded weapons.

There is a group of offroaders here. Reno4x4.com, and I keep thinking of buying a sticker for my truck since I am a member there. Those guys are very similar to the group that wrote this story though. I see pics from the trail they went on over a weekend or something and there is usually people with beer in their hand on regular stops on the trail. I like to drink, but wait 'til the day is over at least. Most of the time these guys have to drive home, or worse drive a trailer with their ride on it home.

I just dont agree. Plus, after Obama got elected they were saying pretty bad things, racist things. I didnt want obama, but thats not called for. So I am usually reminded that I dont want to be associated with those guys and dont buy a sticker. I also dont support that site.

Yet another reason I like this forum. Good Honest people, for the most part.

While you're checking out compact size .380's, take a peek at the Para-Ordnance "Wart Hog" sub-compact .45 ACP (extremely small, extremely powerful, w/high capacity).

Ha... I think you forgot what you were trying to get... 1911 on the nightstand, Ak under the bed .380 on my person.

Para Ordinance I think I just threw up a little bit.
YUCK!! Hack job guns if you ask me.

And @ nerve... the ballistics of a 40sw aren't substantially different than a 9mm, and a .380 is a 9mm short. And we should all realize... none of us... NONE OF US are going be using our guns, and the threat of them will be enough 99% of the time

Yeah, I guess the general consensus is that for REAL defense and stopping power, one should not reply on anything less than a .40. When I am out hiking I carry my 9mm. True, it might not be as good as a .40 or 45, but let's be honest, no one wants to get shot. I think a well placed 9mm will do me just fine. That said, I hope to never find out.

Furthermore, there is nothing stopping me from slinging my AK. I worry about two things, hill-billies and mountain lions. I don't EVER want to encounter a hostile situation, and I know it isn't a very likely occurrence, but you never know. Be as smart as you can be, urban or rural.

IMO, for family home protection, there is no replacement for a shotgun. You can remove limbs with a twelver loaded with 00. My shotgun is loaded with 00 and then slug, in alternating order. So, please don't break into my house cause it is going to be a hell of a mess.

...Speak for yourself...No using it to threaten doesn't always work and you should never your weapon to threaten unless you whole heartedly intend to use it.
