    What gun suitable for defensive use?

    "If the SHTF happens, one untrained teen carrying a semi-auto gun isn't going to save anybody from an group of people who mean business." Say he hears a firefight start while away from home/camp, sneaks in for a look, and happens to be on the flank of 'the group of people who mean business'...

    Savage MKII series

    I want to get a bolt action .22lr for paper/plinkin/hunting small game. After some research, I think i want to go with a Savage mark II rifle. It will be scoped. I dont know whether to go with the MKIIG (sporter barrel with irons, cheap wood stock) at around 170, or MKIIBV (heavy barrel, no...

    Russian Mak went full auto, shot my hand.

    This happened to me with a Russian .380 makarov. It happened when i was shooting though. Second trigger pull fired 3 shots, the last one went off out of battery and singed my hand a bit, then stove piped, which stopped the rest from going off (im assuming). nobody hurt, all rounds went into...

    I just witnessed a shooting, very unhappy with the way I handled it.

    have you considered having one of these installed in your taxi? Here :D Like others said, sounds like you didnt have any direct action taken against you, so the fight or flight instincts were on deck, but not in action yet. and like others said, now that this has happened, you will be...

    I drew on 3 fellows last night.

    interesting situation, i was in a similar one a few months ago, involving a car full of highschool kids that kept swerving around me, passing, tailgaiting, etc on a totally desserted highway. It all started because i went to pass them (they were going 55 in a 65 on a 4 lane highway). Once...

    Anybody seen "Children of Men"?

    i just saw the movie tonight, really enjoyed it. The gun scenes were straight out of a SHTF fantasy scenario. The hill people car attack was epic, same with the final showdown in the immigrant camp. Rivaled saving private ryan in its intensity and realness at times. the plot was so so, but...
