Whats your home defense weapon?

[mlkx4]

My .45 will hopefully get me to my AR-15

 

[Frank4711]

S&W Model 65 3"........Mossberg.....Stoeger dbl....if safe's open any of my 3 Saiga's

 

[NMGonzo]

Next to the bed = .380

I want to be able to hear again.


Next to the door in the secret shelf for outside = .357 ... because I want to hear again if I live to tell.

Upside: decent area, quiet neighborhood, know neighbors. Downside: poor LE response time, a few break-ins and a less-than-savory subdivision not too far away.

Adequate preparations have been made to extend an appropriate greeting to home invaders, burglars and such.

At my laptop and right hand, SA XD9 SC; given a moment to stand and turn I would go for my shortened pistol grip Moss 500. Also a variety of 7.62x39 options available. With a lesser threat like a wandering raccoon, it would be my .410. Middle of the night would be a .357 and a .22 to make sure the intruder was armed.

 

[redbullitt]

SP101 with 38s handy. Ar15 for the house gun.

 

[ksabo45]

I have a 709 SLIM with me at all times, in or out of the house. In house a 20 guage 870 youth model ( light, compact & easily to handel), and various handguns hidden throught the house.
BTW, my wife is very well trained, she can outshoot most men I know.

 

[HoosierShooter]

On my night stand is my colt delta elite 10mm. Also within reach is glock 23 . Wife has a smith & wesson 5946 ..thats only if they get passed the 3 dogs and alarm .

 

[Rick45Colt]

Currently carrying a Taurus PT-1911. I alternate between it and a Taurus Millennium PT140.

What in the ....

 

[tarosean]

For some reason not many people have the nerve to enter my yard....






An 870 is my HD preference just in case the little kids dont deter them... there is just something about the racking of a shotgun, nothing can compare...

So, you want to make sure it's a fair fight by leaving some weapons around for the bad guy to find.

 

[elano]

My rossi 851 38 special revolver, 4" barrel, laying on my nightstand in an open rug loaded with FMJ. Sure I have more powerful guns, but at least I know it will reliably fire 6 shots and skip a dud if i need it.

 

[WVMountainBoy]

870 5 shot loaded with 00 buck and a very hyper mutt. His teeth aren't that big and he's a coward, but he's got a good alarm bark

 

[vikinggirl]

Under the bed - Mossberg 500 12g pump

A bit further but still to hand - 1911 Colt Commander with 'da beams' (that's a red laser for those uninitiated)

Still further but handy - CZ Rami, 9mm with FMJ

thereafter if I'm still kicking its down to martial arts weapons - the rifles are usually in the safe.

Girl scouts are taught to 'be prepared' as well!

 

[BP Hunter]

Remington 870 pump loaded initially with #4 buck followed by 00's and a PT1911 on my side.
