BTW, I have a gun question? I would like to have a simple shotgun that would cock with a noise that would scare an intruder. I would prefer one that would take birdshot because I don't really want to kill someone, just frighten them off if they should get in my house. I don't want to pay a small fortune for one either because I probably would never use it. Crime is almost non-existant around here, except for family feuds and domestic violence. That is probably because everybody has a gun. So, what is your advice on a gun?

Visit a local gun show, there will be available "used but reconditioned"
shotguns priced very reasonably.. you probably want a 20 gauge..
and you can check the cocking-noise ratio of many!

Nothing makes a more deliciously frightening sound than working the action of a pump-action Winchester Model 97. You probably would not even have to load this shotgun - the sound alone will send most people running. ;-)
