the hunting rifle that Im getting has a magazine of 3 rounds, and most shotguns for hunting can only have 3 rounds and the home defense carry 9.

 

4banger444 what part of the inland empire are you at?

 

Clarkston

 

nice thats a nice town.

 

Ya i love the valley. Not always alot to do but i can usually find some fun or make it lol and the blues are so close. Spokane is nice to but i dont really like the big city

 

yeah its nice in small towns since very few people f with you because everyone know that we have guns in the houses and know how to use them.

 

Ya exactly its very nice

 

I even have one in my vehicle!! just set it on my seat when i get pulled over.. no big deal

 

lol i got pulled over this summer by a fish and game and had 3 guns in the truck guy couldnt even figure out how to check if they were unloaded i had to show him how it was funny

 

nice well this late spring I'm going to the winchester mt area I just have to find the trail and maps.

 

i bought a remington 870 last year from a local shop owned by a police officer. he originally built it up all fancy for himself and decided to sell the same day i came in looking for a shotgun for fun and for home defense. i've had lots of fun with it, not used for personal defense yet thankfully. i've shot target loads, slugs, and all sizes of buck and it's just freakin' awesome. i keep it loaded without one in the chamber and up and out of reach in the closet so if i do need it it's a quick grab and pump and i'm ready to go. i've got several other rifles but prefer the shotty because i don't want to shoot through the intruder and into a family member or into the neighbor's house. and even though it goes against every fiber of common sense, according to the law and those darn lawyers that will take everything from you and give to the defendant, you are supposed to get your family in a safe/secure spot or room, barracade yourself in there, identify yourself and tell the intruder to leave and call 911. that's freakin crazy but if it's family safety and lawsuit avoidance i guess that's how you do it. i've got 6 shots in the gun, 6 in the side saddle; so if i'm in a room with one entry and exit and i have to defend myself, i should be able to put the bad guy down in 12 shots in a door way until the coppers arrive. i'll leave the AK in the safe for now, but when the zombies invade that barrel will be red hot

 

I use a different kind of chuck for home defense.
I keep this hanging in my window, it scares them off.

I would like to get a shotgun one day.
Heck, I can not wait until spring/summer so I can get back to shooting again.
Up where I go to shoot my rifle it is under about 5' of snow right now.

 

I like the ugly ones....

 

...and some pretty ones


































Oops!....

 

Well look me up know some of the area

 

O ya?My grandparents used to leave up there, Theres some indian land we used to ride motorcycles on like 2 minutes out of town theresalot of trails on this land not sure if you can 4x4 tho

 

Some shotguns have a perfect place in home defense. I would take this over my pistol or my ak any day. And with eight shots I am not worried in the slightest about not having enough rounds for home invasion. For that matter if it doesn't work out then I always have some others just in case.

 

The shotgun is the ultimate close range, CQB, and home defense tool. Plain and simple, no arguement. Following that would be a good pistol with hollowpoints or something like that (SMGs aside).

Over penetration is a serious concern. Quite foolish to think that it's not. I assume you live by yourself, Cause I sure as hell don't want some high power rifle round piercing through my walls and hitting a family member. Come on now, think about it.

CJM, I'm just kinda lost trying to understand your logic.

Oh and by the way, you don't want a modified choke for shooting slug. You want a completely open choke w/ no contriction.

 

yeah I don't have a choke for my shotgun since its a mod for slugs, well its a old shotgun.

 

Me neither, Most hold up to 8 with ought the plug and instead of 1 bullet you have 150 small bullets. if you are in my house i WILL hit you every time with my shotgun almost guaranteed.
