Prevention is good to a point ? guns have a place, and they are in the home. I only really consider rifles/shotguns as guns also, I will never see a handgun as anything more than a tool that is used to murder people with.

huh? let me read this again... .................................................. .......................
ok yeah thats what I thought you said let me get a drink really fast this is going to be a long one.....
sssssiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiipppppppppppppppppppppppppp pp
alright.....
this is a tough one... myself personally I alwasy carry my handgun and anyone from the boards thats ever met me knows I always carry... I even pack a full size HK usp 40 in a ccw that I can get to before you could send the signal from your brain to your trigger finger.. that being said.. I train for situatins like that all the time.. I also play paintball with nothing but a pistol against people with full auto's and ask zombiegirl I am not outgunned....
now that being said.. can anyone do that? NOPE.. and the old saying is
"good thing I didn't have my gun on me last night when I got robbed cause he would have taken that to"
the prob is people don;t train with their weapons.. they buy em and shoot maybe 100 rounds through them each year if not throughout the lifetime of owning the weapon... myself I shoot at least a min of 2000 rounds through my handgun a week... and I have cut back alot on shooting...... we do drills... I instruct 4 times a year at a place called Front Sight here are the details on that place..

if anyone is intrested we have amazing classes that I will personally get you a 80% discount on and will personally be an instructur on.. not alone..
the class I reccomend is a 4 day armed citizens corps class.. you will go over everything from when to shoot and when not to shoot because your right to an extent.. most roberies end with them not even having a weapon....
now we have what we call the 21ft rule.. 21 ft is the dangerzone... someone witha sock can kill you within 21ft..... now I disagree for the longguns as "real guns" don't get me wrong there fun to shoot for LONG RANGE but shotguns are to messy for home protection... if you live alone yes there great but if you have kids never use a shotty as hope protection unless you load in this patter.... empty,beanbaag(lesslethal),buckshot,birdshot,bucks hot in case studies it's just shown that more "friendly fire" is done with shottys in the house where family is present... the best is learn your handgun.. you can become very fast with it and get some great night sights your set for anything....
