“They all need haircuts.”

The undertaker provides that service as part of the burial package.

At least for two of them.

I like the way you think.

Deterrence/avoidance beats a gunfight any old day.

Several low cost drive way alarms, placed in strategic locations around the home with the receivers labelled as to location is a low cost early warning system.

Mine have cut out milk jug collars and are placed mid to low looking slightly upwards to reduce rabbit/possum false alarms....

I want time to hear up if possible.

If the story was more widely circulated, the story alone would prevent far more robberies.

> He grabbed his AR15 from alongside the bed.

Too bad he had to take one to get two. Good thing those were taken out of the gene pool.

“Deterrence/avoidance beats a gunfight any old day.”

I could go either way. Whenever I hear of some helpless old lady getting killed by thugs I wonder if someone could have stopped them beforehand.

If the area has feral pigs, maybe a short lived problem.

12 gauge sawed off to 19” with 00 is perfectly fine too.

Absolutely. Especially an AR-15 pistol in 300 AAC Blackout....bad to the bone.

Here’s a shorty that’s legal to own. 14” barrel.

Use with low recoil OO buck or low recoil #4. My 2 cents.
