Anyone else see this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Y7i1ASCS5o It should factor into any debate on gun control-- here we have a madman (claims to be J.C., on a divine mission to kill black people) at the start of what could be a massacre, but is stopped by an armed citizen. The...

Lots of interesting discussion on this thread, but this has to be the best direct answer to the OPs question The wisest course, however, is to not find yourself in that situation, as others said.

speaking from personal experience, there? You must have an interesting line of work :)

I must have flinched :)

Thanks again everyone who replied to the earlier thread. I did not try 'poking', but instead took some of the advice from http://www.brianenos.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=82124&hl=flinch%20breaker&st=0 as suggested by ATLDave Relaxing the jaw was a new idea for me (from the linked...

Many thanks to everyone. I hope this means I am on the right track, 'cause based on the collected wisdom in this thread my "poke the gun" idea is something you want the other guy to practice. Me too. BUT Which is why I though going with the reflex would be better than fighting against it...

Thanks for mentioning that you don't have kids around you house. This is a major factor to consider when it comes to a stash gun.

First off, let me say I am new at this, so I am more looking for helpful advice/criticism than suggesting that I have any tried and proven wisdom to offer. Heck, all I really have is an idea which came to me yesterday at the END of my range session. I won't be able to test it until tomorrow...

DIY shotty lock This guy made one that works with a RFID bracelet, claims the parts cost about $100. http://homesecurity-equipments.com/shop/Arduino/video-q1n1kT_8vKE&-DIY_RFID_Shotty_Lock.html I have not examined the design closely, and make no promises as to safety or security. At...

From the "gun bubble" thread came this idea: I have software which could generate such maps. I would only do it to the county level, which would I hope be anonymous enough to avoid big brother concerns. If someone else out there could get the data, send me a PM and we can talk further...

You should sell the python immediately. Then, in about 8-9 years, when you can't stand it any more, I will give you the chance to own one again. For a ridiculously high price, of course, but I have to pay for my kid's college somehow. Oh, sorry, I forgot that this is a friendly forum where...

Indeed. Job is nice, but family is what really matters.

So at least now I know who to sell it to on the day I decide to cash out :)

Sorry to hear about your 401k. If it is any consolation, I know some very smart cookies who did worse (like seriously smart, one has a Ph.D. from Harvard, and the others are in the same intellectual league), and didn't have the foresight to put some of their money into their gun safe. At least...

Lots of good answers here, thanks to everyone. Here is the thing. I want the gun. If I buy it, I will shoot it. Alot. But having just shelled out for 4 other guns, I have a hard time justifying it to my pocketbook or my wife. I fantasize that one day I will use this gun to train my son how to...

A local gunshop has one for sale, very good condition. I could consider buying it, but only if it has good probability of increasing in value enough to justify buying a bigger gun safe... my current one is getting pretty full. More of a shooter than a collector, so pretty ignorant at that...

Thanks again to all. Think I'll try breakfree CLP for a while. Hope it also helps protect the wooden grips. gdesloge, I did read up on how blueing works. Very interesting stuff!

Apologies if you feel this is posted in the wrong forum-- it may belong in "Gunsmithing and repairs". BUT!! when I searched on the topic there, most of the people were discussing semi-autos. I'm still tyring to learn how to best care for my guns, a Trooper and a 586. Sentry Solutions offers...

Thanks, Mountainman, exactly what I was looking for.
