The noise alone from this sucker will knock a intruder down! Looks a little obscene on the nightstand though!

Lol. Short barrel ARs are a different story all together. You're right they are pretty loud. We have 11.5 length AR's for entry work that are atrocious without the surefire suppressors attached.

Nice boom stick by the way. Here's one of my 100-600yds tools.

I tried all of you guys suggestions -- but I finally just mounted a Dillon Aero on the footboard of the bed. One quick trigger pull and the the entire wall was gone -- clear to the front of the house. That ought to scare those pesky intruders off. It's really neat at Halloween too!!

Well I'm in the military as well so I'm qualified sharp shooter with the 9mm. This gun doesn't impress me to much not enough power. I do not have a wife or girlfriend (as of now). I really love the 357 mag I owned a colt king cobra for a long time great gun one of the best Ive owned but i want to conceal as well so I'm really looking into the xd 40 and xd 45 they feel great and all the reviews are just outstanding. the colt 1911 really does it for me to though but not so good for concealment.My debate is probably really between .40 and .45

If you serious about a Gun (I would advice against it simply because of the statsistics) then Get a Pump shotgun their is nothing as chilling of a sound as the racinig of a pump to scare the !@# out of any intruder.

For CCW go titanuim..
