<<supplement my home protection system of three handguns with a shotgun <g>>>

consider doing what my pal in the Philippines does, keeping a few grenades handy in various spots of the house, to quote the pal - "Jay, I am not going to get into a gun fight in the dark using pistol against AK47s. I will chuck out a few grenades and have the servants clean up the mess in the morning"

>>that made me realize I should probably supplement my home protection system of three handguns with a shotgun <g><<

Dunno, how many can you hold at once? A few extra clips and lots of ammo, and yer set! A Rotweiller or two could be useful, plus you can train 'em to bring in yer home-delivered copy of the Investor's Business Daily.....<G>

ork,

You can get grenades in the thumb (wink wink).

Of course I don't want those doods to know my name, and I certainly don't want to be photographed by the Feds hanging with the Michigan nutjobs. I used to do business in one of those towns, and one of the co-owners made me fairly nervous.

Shotguns are probably best for home defense. You don't really need good aim, and that is a plus in the dark.

HUI is making me nervous. I feel naked without any miners.

Saw Bob Lutz landing his personal helicopter over at GM Tech center this morning. Struck me as ironic that I guy that makes cars flies to work.
