The jerks are lucky. He could have drawn a Bomb!

If you're using a shotgun don't go PC. Now he has to fix the floor.

The gent should consider getting some slugs. From what I’ve heard, they can put a really large diameter hole in stuff.

[mylife]

I was thinking the same thing!

[television is just wrong]

gun free zones should be unlawful.

#4 buckshot would be a better choice.

[FourPeas]

It was the third theft that occurred at the residence in the last six months.

I fear this is only the beginning for Michigan.

I’d rather clean up a little blood than having to plug a bunch of holes.

Thanks.

It would have been easier to punch the radiator than the tires. Or, he could just make the windshield explode.

The old gentleman just couldn’t bring himself to shoot a person,even a person who was stealing from him .He’s lucky the punks ran instead of calling his bluff.

[wizr]

Yep, you’re right. He was thinking, while I would VERY defensive. Especially if there had been prior tries.

That Centurion Multi-Defense 12ga round is similar if not identical to the buck and ball load used in Civil War long guns. Very mean round.

[bert]

I think he was laying in wait.

[Hang'emAll]

Thank you for the history on that.

The Centurion is sold by ammunitiontogo.com located in Texas

They have some good prices on their site. Also a wide variety of shotgun loads.

I think

FREEREPUBLIC.COM

IN SUPPORT OF ONE OF OUR FAVORITE AMMENDMENTS

SHOULD ESTABLISH A RUNNING THREAD CATEGORY

“HEROES PROTECTING HOME AND FAMILY AND/OR OTHERS”

Would that be fitting, Jim?

The fleschette shotgun shell rounds are better....very nasty wounds....
