I’m sure they will avoid your house.

Yup. A guy in our gun club zipped his leg with a Glock. I’ll take a Sig any day.

same with me.. I own a Sig 226. I'm looking at the newer smaller one now

I respect any law abiding citizen to own a gun, I personally don’t want one.

Gave my shotguns to my sister’s kids. They hunt regularly and I hadn’t shot one in years. 3 good shotguns now being used regularly.

S&W 686+ instead of Glock 19. I’ve got a Glock 27 but usually carry a S&W Model 60. Or Ruger EC9. I’d love to find a holster for the 686+ that doesn’t carry it halfway up my ribs. Mmay need to go custom.

Fired thousands of rounds thru my 10/22 in past years, but can’t find a range near me anymore good for shooting rifles.

I have “more modern” pistols, the Hi Power is still my favorite 9mm.

The problem is once you have one you will want more. And before you know it you will have too many. And then you sell some. But now you don’t have enough. So you get more. And it just goes on and on...

I would add a 22 cal break-barrel, gas piston pellet rifle.

For $100 or less you can get one that will kill small game raccoon sized and under, and 500 rounds of ammo is $10 on sale.

Just my opinion and your mileage may vary but for static home defense (stay in one spot and wait for the bad guy to come to you) a long gun is hard to beat.

However, should you need to move once goblins are in the house (getting to your kids room for example), a handgun makes more sense. You don’t have a long firearm that may make it difficult to traverse a narrow hallway, especially if said goblin appears behind you. In addition a handgun allows one arm free to do other things like lead your kid to safety.

Just something to consider.

Yup... The 226 is popular with Army Special Forces and Navy SEALs.
