...That whole kachunk think doesn’t fly with me. That means the gun wasn’t ready to fire and you may have given up your surprise advantage....

We used to travel with an 870 in the trunk before the CCW days
When Ina motel on I 10, it leaned against the nightstand whenat 3am the room door kicked open. But,the secondary
chain lock kept it from opening. Just woke up, groggy, poor visibility etc.
I grabbed the 870, loaded it and the would be invaders heard the unmistakable instant kerchunk sound, and a female voice yelled, “Don’t shoot. Don’t shoot. We be leaving. We be leaving.”

And the woman and her two male friends high tailed it down the stairs. Informed management, Left the motel

Neat, tidy, no trauma. No paperwork, no mess, no fuss. No police interrogations, no trip delay.
5 rounds of 00 were ready at the pull of the trigger.

The real world calls for judgment calls. You have to make your own decision at the instant. It was one of the two million Crime preventions yearly that’s not publicized.

I'm more of a cocked and locked person. Glad you were able to get loaded in time.
