Home defense ?

**doug1980** · 07-16-2009, 03:38 PM

I just use several claymore mines strategically placed near doors and windows. If that doesn't work then I have a flamethrower and bazooka to take down even the most harden criminals. But all the signs in the yard saying "sniper on duty" and "all tresspassers will be shot, all survivors will be shot again" usually deter everyone....even the UPS man. Still waiting on that package.....

I love coach guns. I've been looking at gun shows for one that fits. Another gun show this weekend - wish me luck.

My favorite, simple, simple and shall I say simple. And works all the time

I'll stick to a shotgun that has more than 2 shots

While I love my pump action 12 gauge and my bolt action 12 gauge it is hard to argue with the simplicity of the double barrled coach gun for home defense.

I am interested in your HD choices though...

Currently my EDC (I change them from time to time) is a S&W .40. Whatever I am using, sits on my nightstand at night. If there were some sort of civil unrest in the area my choices would provide me with multiple options.

Work on that coach gun just a little bit and you'll have a nice lupara. THE perfect HD weapon and perfectly legal! As far as multiple shots, when you hear that hammer click back I'll bet your ears will perk up.

Ah yes, the chop shop version of justifiable homocide -home defense style! Gotta love it!

The 870. This one:

Good luck to Crash.

HD rarely requires more than 2 shots...especially with a 12 gauge.
Don't get me wrong, i am a big fan of my 870...but my "next to the bed" tool is my coach gun.

You can't be wrong all the time

Actually, if it takes more than two shots in an HD scenario, you should have been running anyways

I wore out the 870 Dad got me for my first gun. I bought a new one and love the 3 1/2" loads. I also picked up a rifled slug barrel now that is a rifle! I usually top the scoped .270 and 300 at the range with my iron sights, sweet! Home defense with a slug barrel, ouch! and a bit messy.

**Rick** · 07-16-2009, 07:38 PM

Yeah, you can drop the intruder, your noisy neighbor and the mooch that lives on the other side of him......just sayin'

**COWBOYSURVIVAL** · 07-16-2009, 07:42 PM

My trigger finger is well trained in that respect. That is why Canada Geese fly 1 minute before shooting time safely. It is also why the biggest buck i ever saw in my life walked. Just say'in and it isn't my goto gun. just love my 870. Good point one to consider with the .38 Colt I mentioned earlier....

**Rick** · 07-16-2009, 07:47 PM

In that case, I require 10 minutes before you start shooting.

**COWBOYSURVIVAL** · 07-16-2009, 07:49 PM

Are you an armed intruder?

**Rick** · 07-16-2009, 07:57 PM

I was until I heard you rack the round in. My weapon is still laying at the top of the stairs. Just keep it. Consider it payment for any inconvenience you might have been caused.

**COWBOYSURVIVAL** · 07-16-2009, 08:01 PM

That was the bolt to the safe room I was putting myself and my family in. Come on in now I have all of my guns and ammo right here. Well mine was easy i am now arming my 2 girls with their .410's. Ok 10 min. is up where are you?
