If your looking for a shotgun for home defense here is a good one. It comes with a 20 or 32 round drum

Hell, you better get yourself cheap trustable shooting rounds. That way you pop a cap and not worry about being traced back to the rounds by purchase records. But Federal makes a pretty good round, I cant remember what they were for the life of me. Shot a ton of them out my buddies XD40. Never had any issues. But then again I am a bowhunter and dont carry a sidearm nor am I allowed to. So take that for what it is worth.

So you can't carry a side arm in WA while bow hunting? What in the hell do you do if a chipmunk charges you?

forget the chipmunk...those tweety birds are insane.

yeah its a joke we cant carry a sidearm while archery hunting. ive had some close calls with cougars while archery hunting. so yeah

not to mention a cow elk charge me this late season...well kinda charged me/didnt see me. BUT IM STILL CALLING IT A CHARGE lol and it would have been nice to have a sidearm for self defense.

What do you know about the Les Baer pistols? A cop customer of mine says a lot of good things about them.

I don't know much about hand guns but my wife bought me a browning hp 40 cal pistol for Christmas . I am looking into ammo options and holsters.

looking at the Milt Sparks, galco, black hawk serpa, teb blocker holsters. spelling might be off on these but it sure is fun shopping for toys for your toys.

Kramer also makes a good holster. They have a really nice line of concealed carry holsters made with horsehide. This stuff is twice as ttuff and twice as durable. not to mention their a local company..

Nice stuff. I love the .40 cal but the damn ammo is sooooo expensive or it. But you get the stopping power, which is the point.

Pocket sized 5 shot .357 magnum. Bead-blasted S.S. finish, magnaported barrel, & trigger a job. Next project is to bob the hammer but the reduced hammer weight might necessitate replacing the original full power springs. When you lighten the trigger pull on a revolver you also reduce the hammer force on the firing pin.

To anyone thinking of magna-porting a snub nose revolver - it doesn't really work. You end up getting a really big light show instead of the reduced muzzle lift as it was intended to do.

The only gun I ever had pointed at me was one of those Ruger SP-101's. Still gives me the willies. I remember that muzzle shot.

Sweet little gun.

Ya he's got more toy's then i will ever have. My buddy just bought a AR 50 so at least i get to giggle for awhile until i shoot it. Then someone will have to wipe that grin off my face.

Rafter do you know of a good price on rounds for the AR 50?
