I have to say that i am amazed at the fact that those with no prior military/tactical/common sense experience argue some of the really obvious things with some who do. I have to admit that compared to some on here, shit probably most, I don't know shit about engines, suspensions, etc, hence when those topics come up, I let the more educated than me chime in and I keep my pie hole shut. As far as guns go, I have shot a few here and there and I know what some on here are presenting as valud arguments are just downright funny and ignorant. Overpriced shotguns for home defense, no lights (given the situation, etc.); what tactical clown college did you graduate from? A handgun is lethal in the hands of a well-trained person, one's whose mindset is in the game and the person who is not some housewife hoping to pray and spray with a two-round shotgun, but rather someone who will go and clear the house methodically and most likely neutralize the threat. Like Kennith said, handguns are easy to use indoors and in the right hands as effective as, if not more effective, as some other boomstick some others are arguing for. Here is a question. Where do you keep this big shotgun at night? Under the pillow, next to the nighstand, in the closet? When you get woken up in the middle of the nihht, you better be able to get to that weapon fast and be able to use it effectively. A handgun with a flashlight (used as needed) answers that in my book.
