"tool" of choice for would-be theives

[race-rodz]

well i wouldnt ever plan on shooting a wouldbe theif with any of my assault rifles..... kinda hard to prove your life was in danger over about 10 feet away.

i actually have hydrashocks in my baby eagles for that very reason. they go in...tear up everything...but dont come out. i have heard you can shoot an undamaged car winsheild with them from 20' and a hydrashock round wont go through.... havent tryed it...so i cant say for sure.

i used my AK to shoot an old SBC block with "made in russia" fmj "hunting" ammo.... from 50 yds.... it was like watching a pipe bomb go off.

most my weapons are completly worthless unless i get into comp shooting.... or anarchy overthrows the government

A .223 round wouldn't do all that but a .50BMG round would be worse than the above scenario. However,it's irrelevant to me because shooting my big gun in the city would be totally irresponsible. In a SHTF scenario,all bets are off. With the .50BMG,if I can see it,I can hit it.
For home defense,I have a Star PD .45ACP handgun and either a Remington 870 or 1100. Both the latter are riot shotguns loaded with #6 or #7 shot for less penetration potential. I normally keep a mag of Glaser Safety Slugs in the .45ACP and another mag of Silvertips and Ball nearby.
I also own a few assault rifles and subguns for domestic unrest.

I am still a fan of the good ole' baseball bat. Nothing like repeatedly beating someone in the head and hearing the skull turn to mush.
