I'm not stopping with one, though, and I'm going for your eyes if I can. After nine shots, I'm reloading and assessing the need for further ventilation."B Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11820065559822788663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-84467339260259241032009-10-23T09:17:17.900-04:002009-10-23T09:17:17.900-04:00Obviously the correct answer is a Wookiee Bowcaste...Obviously the correct answer is a Wookiee Bowcaster<br /><br />Duhh!<br /><br />And remember kids, protect your six with thems rear deflector shields!Weer'd Beardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13528978001340070552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-47701890072854229012009-10-22T15:06:03.059-04:002009-10-22T15:06:03.059-04:00"Does that mean it's unsportsman like to ..."Does that mean it's unsportsman like to use a suppressor for home defense?"<br /><br />Not at all...<br /><br />If there is no loud boom or bright flash, the sudden impact will have to be enough warning.Davidnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-65872338874979167142009-10-22T14:04:29.875-04:002009-10-22T14:04:29.875-04:00I am NOT anti-social, I just don't like people...I am NOT anti-social, I just don't like people!NattyBumpohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04407766541195013004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-2658281434196397662009-10-22T12:50:32.577-04:002009-10-22T12:50:32.577-04:00"Sorry.

Some go for the magnum, but the bulk are Marlin and ruger autos.<br /><br />My thinking is that if there is a real threat, I want a 20 guage pump loaded with 6 shot. Pump to warn them and the 6 shot makes a hole about 1 foot around out to 30 yards.Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15708868713277676628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-19780794365060889322009-10-22T08:58:27.712-04:002009-10-22T08:58:27.712-04:00I used to spend some time in hospitals here in Oz ...I used to spend some time in hospitals here in Oz - part-time job helping me through University.<br /><br />One patient that I became friendly with was having his knee rebuilt after using his 10/22 as a club. <br /><br />He fired 9 rounds at a rabbit and missed, so he ran after it and clubbed it with a rifle that he THOUGHT was empty - Boom! Ouch! Oh sh*t!<br /><br />That little .22 at about 6 inches destroyed his knee.Sendariushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13286039362709773644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-52982600563492670152009-10-22T07:47:12.114-04:002009-10-22T07:47:12.114-04:00bgeek, After witnessing a 10/22 used in just that ...bgeek, After witnessing a 10/22 used in just that way, let me just say, get a louisville slugger if you want a club. You can even use the LS later as a club.
