RAGDOLL MX Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 nice collection. I actually used to have a firearm in every room when I was working for DoD Police. and usually one in each vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ash Posted April 30, 2006 Author Share Posted April 30, 2006 HK40 USP with match weight comp, 308 heavy barrel custom built, not pictured is the Ruger P95DC, Beretta 92 Love the rifle! Where is the Beretta? Also, what is the MATCH slide for? Is that for comp shooting? I'd like to shoot the rifle at long distance to see what it would do. I have a Remington 8000 series 7mm but it's hard to shoot with my shoulder surgery back in September. I'm looking for a new 870 Shotgun for home defense and tomorrow I'm possibly getting a new Glock .357 and/or a Lady Smith for my wife chambered .357. At least this will give her the option to fire .38+p and .357. I'd like to put together a shoot date for anyone interested. Discount Firearms on Highland seems to have the best shooting range. I am very careful where I shoot in the desert, never know who's riding their quads out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aceisback Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Sig Sauer P220 .45 with a nice little collection of 230gr Federal Hydroshock for that occasional Thug or Meth Head that may initially think that my family or belongings are easy pickings. Colt 1991A1 .45 Compact Commander. Couple of rifles and shotguns in 22 caliber and 12 guage. Ash, that's a very nice collection that you've started there. I particularly like that 308. Same thing I won a few 1000yd Matches with during my tours on the US Marine Corps Rifle Team. Not alot of rounds down range since my retiremnet in 03 but I get out to do the occasional plinking in the desert and at the rec range aboard the base here in 29. That rifle of yours might come in handy while the North Pole is being desecrated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EY3BA11 Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 i have been doing some research in close quarters combat for when I was living in my apartment and found that a nice glock 30 w/ tangible rounds would be the best solution for my needs... that way I don’t have to worry about a stray bullet killing the neighbors by accident if I ever (knock on wood I will never have to) open fire upon a perpetrator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ynot Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 i have been doing some research in close quarters combat for when I was living in my apartment and found that a nice glock 30 w/ tangible rounds would be the best solution for my needs... that way I don’t have to worry about a stray bullet killing the neighbors by accident if I ever (knock on wood I will never have to) open fire upon a perpetrator I think a short barrelled (legal) 12 gauge pump is the most effective weapon in a in home attack. First it can safely be left unchambered with the safety on and it becomes very difficult for a child to "rack a round". Second I can tell you from experience that when you "rack a round" it makes everybody around pay attention! Third #7 or #6 shot makes a nice hole in whatever it may strike at a close distance but does not have the power to penetrate apartment walls etc. after any kind of distance since it spreads out. Very formidable weapon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcjunky3 Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 i remember hearing almost the exact statement from a sherriff friend of my dads 20+ years ago about the shotgun as a home defense weapon and it has stuck with me ever since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very formidable weapon! I'd have to agree with that also. 12 gauge rounds come in all shapes and sizes.......and they won't go through everything before stopping. Especially if you have around 18" barrel with a pistol grip.... Good for tight quarters and nice spread for sleepy eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EY3BA11 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 but its also a much larger weapon a little harder to conceal in the household.. and you give away the element of surprise... i want these bastards STOPPED... not running so they can invade someone elses privacy..

Alot of times just the undeniable sound of chambering a round in a shotgun is enough to avoid a fatal conflict. I would agree.I wouldn't want to kill the intruder-anybody that knows me and the guns that I have-it would definitely happen if it was the case! I will let the cops kill em for me!Got alot of great guns-AK-47 fun but definitely expensive to shoot-polish mouser w/7.65x54 round bullets-.38 special-pk-102 sniper rifle-30-30 rifle.Marlin magnum .22 rifle. All are great next time I go to the firing range I will post up pics its better seeing these guns in action anyways.For some reason when I went to the firing range they said I could not use my sniper rifle or my AK-47 they said that I had to use the one that they own and my sniper rifle has too much penetrating power and damages the walls of the shoooting range.
