Home invasion survivor: I was against guns, now I carry
Never mind...
LOL! The second word says it all.
Now she carry but does she support others to have a gun. Most Liberals are against gun right for others, but not themselves. Liberals are for high taxes for others, but not themselves
The account leaves some question in my mind about what happened. It says she shot the attacker in the back, and the other one got away. This suggests that they were already fleeing the scene when she opened fire.
I certainly don’t criticize her for returning fire, but did this action actually save them from further attack? This is not clear ( to me ) from the account.
Absolutely agree. Freedom, safety and prosperity for me, but not for thee. What hypocrites!
Not a lot of info but I disagree that the story would lead one to believe that she shot while they were fleeing.
It says that she shot one of the attackers in the back with her husband’s pistol, after she and her husband had been shot, and the attackers were struggling with her husband.
I do not see any inference that they were fleeing before she shot.
Check. Sloppy reading on my part.
Liberal + mugged = Conservative
Well she likes the .22 rimfire for her carry evidently.... the rugged mk 1 series was used against the bad guys and her snobby in the video is a SW 317 eight shot........ .22 !
Liberal mugged = new conservative.
One article I read long ago by a gun writer said that the .22LR rimfire cartridge is deadly out of all proportion to its size and I agree, especially if you keep it loaded with the very best from CCI. I tried a Beretta Bobcat .22 semi-auto on a heavy steel cookpot with a very thick bottom and at ten feet a CCI mini-mag went through the bottom and left a hole you could have dropped a .45 round through, in fact I could poke the end of my little finger through it and I struggle to put on the largest work gloves I can find. The expanded hollow point bullet went on into the soil beneath the pot. That was done with a shot from a barrel two inches long. Trying it on treated pine two by fours the bullet would go through and keep right on flying.
I’m a big fan of the 22 Long rifle....... Stingers, CCI mini mags as you suggest as well as modifying .22 budget ammo with Paco Kellys accurizer tools. Personal favorites are the beretta 70/71 pistols as well as the Ruger Mk 1, the old tried and true H&R 999 top break revolver and all .22 caliber S&W and Ruger wheel guns. Agree ..... Stay Safe !!!
