Found out companies are hiring "house sitters" aka armed guards for some of the "mansions" down in the gulf coast region. Up to 1250 $ a day in some cases. Minimum of 500$ per day from rumors I hear.....:o)
I loaned my Dressed Benelli M1 and a pair of PVS7B NVG's to a friend headed off on that job this AM....He wanted to take one of my M4 Bushmasters but I talked him down to house sitter mode.....He's got a black eagle benelli that he hunts and shoots trap and 5 stage with so the benelli IMHO was the better choice for the guy based on his demonstrated ability and experience with that action. Gave him 200 rounds of #4 Buck and slugs with instructions to leave if he had to use all of that ammo.
He's taking his dog and the Benelli with his 1911A1 along with a rented sat cellular so we'll see if the job was worth the money.... He's alledgedly responsible for all his own food , ammo , water, comm , transportation etc so we'll have to wait and see how good a "deal" this post anarchy job is.
