read the whole conversation it will make more since


Nice 'comeback'.

It makes people think that you are a person who is to be believed and who they can converse with like adults. A person who is not just here to argue, a real role model for all ATS members. Someone for us all to model ourselves after.

Sort of like Jesus.

why would you need to defend yourself against animals when shtf and not now? you live on a farm so I will assume you live in a rual area so animals are probally already alive and if they are a threat then you need you defens now not after shtf there for leading me to think you were talking about killing humans.

YEAh...haha ! I thought the same.


Personally, I wouldn't like a PMS wife with a gun. Pepper spray and maybe some karate lessons are good enough.

this female likes the KelTech Sub2000 ... 9mm but available as 40 ... avg $400
lightweight, collapsible, minimal recoil, semi-auto and great targeting ... personal is loaded with scope, laser and light


kinda partial to this fully functional antique --> dbl long barrel shotgun ... little pricey but worth it


then again for the commando types, this might be more her style ... it's kinda "planet of the apes" in design but does that really matter ?? ... multi-caliber, semi-auto, fires smooth, targets well and lightweight just bulky, also dual switch trigger (for those stuck in the left/right paradigm
) Beretta CXstorm

for something more handy, i look toward the Taurus millenium 9mm, Springfield XD and or SigSauer Equinox or The Judge ... any of them suits me just fine but i favor the Equinox.
P220 / 45 ...
P220

P226 / 40 ...
P226
Good luck

Tell ya what, if you have some long guns your best bet is to get "the judge" from Taurus. Its a .410 5 shot revolver that is perfect for home defense. It's got a rifled barrel so your shot pattern opens up drastically at short distances and it won't go through walls. Or you could go with the slightly more lethal route and loading up with 00 buck shot. With 5 pulls of the trigger you could potentially put 15 .30 cal holes in something. Or you could load it up with .45 long volts and reach out and touch someone.

Very versatile, pretty inexpensive and it just looks mean as heck!

Get yourself a IMI Galil SAR 5.56mm, its the perfect combination between the Ak and the m16

And if you want more firepower, get the Galil ARM 7.62mm: 4.45 kg

They have a Raging Judge now.

It is a 28 gauge instead of the pewny .410.

My husband bought me a 243 Winchester in 1998. It is perfect, there is nearly zero kickback, it is so smooth and pinpoint that he uses it for shots under 300 yards. Peace

the best lightweight platform for a smaller frame BUT still with adequate power is the AR-10/SR-10...

its basically a 7.62 Nato version of the m-16.. makes every shot count..

7 min long original video.part 2.. gets a gun nut aroused...

I'll throw my hat in the ring for either the Kel Tec Sub 2000 in 9mm or a Ruger Mini 14. It would depend on how much range you want the rifle to have. Obviously the Ruger will have better range with its 5.56 round and it sounds like you already have a bunch of this ammo laying around. The advantage of the Kel Tec is price. 9mm rounds are cheap, and the rifle itself is about half the price($350 for the Kel Tec and $700 for the Ruger.)

Look to a 20g auto loading shotgun.
Kick/recoil is manageable and the auto loading is great.

Saiga.
