When seconds count.............the cops are only minutes away. The illegal's rely on that statistical fact. :(

I'd be criminally neglegent to entrust the safety of my wife, children, and employees with local law enforcement based on statistical data in our region.

I own a couple -- my grandfathers Winchester saddle rifle .30/.30 -- and an antique shot gun that's so heavy you couldn't lift it and fire it... both have pad locks thru the trigger guards...and I have no idea where the keys are. They also in a small closet in a closet.

I just post on here to give the pro gun group some crap. :rofl:

Yeah, all those homeowners with guns are what drives up the murder rate. Yup.

All I know is that a 1911 in my wifes hands prevented an attack in my home while I was at work. Nobody got shot. Nobody got hurt. Nothing but a broken front door jamb where they came in only to be confronted by the bore of a 45. Yup, homeowners with guns are a real bad thing. Just ask my wife.

The 357 magnum s&w performance center 686. auto can jam wheel guns don't. You must be able to practice in every situation. remember if you miss what you are shooting at the bullet can travel to the house next door. or another room in your house. you can use glaser rounds that penetrate and explode so if you miss te target it just makes a hole in the wall and does not travel further. always better to have a gun and not need it than to need a gun and not have it. also get a big dog.

there are so many regs here if you want to even own one, from what i understand it has to have a trigger lock, and be disassembled if you want to transport it you need to have a permit everytime, and notify the police. just what i hear could be wrong, i guess it still doesn't stop the guy who is going to break into your house i suppose.

blows my mind how the majority of ppl in the US have them??? very different

Must be a B.C. thing, Step in to the Alberta it switches from the bongs to the guns....

OH and yes- need a trigger lock on any gun in storage at home and travelling any where, in a case that is locked at all times. Handguns- classified as a restricted registered weapon, can only be transported to and from home and the gun range, on the same route no altering that. Any semi-auto is in the same class. All gun magazines need to be 'blocked' to only hold five rounds. Disassembled -not to my knowledge, but I've ignored the rules since our infamously flawed long gun registration.

Blake if you lived in the States you'd for sure have a gun or ten, those MF's are crazy down there:willy:

I'm only posting because I can't help myself when I hear so much positive about the "theory" behind the Judge. It's easily at the bottom of my list.
http://www.theboxotruth.com/docs/bot41.htm
More important to me, the price of both .410 and .45 colt far exceeds its performance. .410 through the Judge is a joke, regardless of load, especially slugs at less than 100gr. It was a stroke of marketing genius for sure though. If your goal is pain and suffering, .410 bird shot might just be the ticket, good luck with that in court. There was a good article recently in one gun rag or another about 5 cases where a firearm was justifiably used and 2 or 3 of the 5 didn't end well for the shooter. You might consider that while you're at it. If you're idea of home defense is to buy a gun and stick it in a safe that'll take more time to get into than you have to spare, then buy whatever you think looks cool, cause that's about all it's gonna be worth. Knowing your rights and knowing your gun are far and away more important than the round it fires.

I can't even count the number of errors and inaccurate comments made just on the first couple pages of " the box of truth". I have zero respect for that so called "expert". I don't own a judge, never held one much less fired one. Don't own either a .45 long colt nor a .410, so no personal bias here. Just a total lack of agreement on so many comments that "author" made that I had to post.
