My normal USP .45 full sized. The Mossberg 500 with Federal Tactical buck is close, and once I get my Bushy M4 broken in and zeroed it will take over for the shotgun.
And I am not at all worried about overpenetration. Especially if my roomates dogs wake me up while someone is still downstairs. At that point, even a .50 BMG wouldn't be a cause for concern. I'd be shooting down a steep staircase, any misses, or overpenetration would go into the floor and into the dirt below. And of course I'm only shooting a 5.56 which really doesn't penetrate all that well. I've seen the "Box of Truth," and have seen some informal tests in the past. Even the Army doesn't really believe in it's abilities to reliably penetrate a car door, though I'm pretty sure it usually will. Just not enough to rely on it. |

Ya I have NO IDEA what I'm talking about. Ive SHOT 55 grn american eagle FMJ ball thru steel at 300 yrds and watched its make clean holes . Im sure that a few inches of drywall and insulation work better as a back stop then steel. I remember to tell that to my range owners when theyre complaining about having to fix the damage done by the BMGs on the back stop. Theres a REASON they make 5.56 in frangible rounds but again I must not know a damn thing. Read thru the entire post I was infact just redirecting fire at another member who said dont bring a handgun to a rifle fight. I didn't start this. I don't know how many police forces have switched to AR's from MP'5s but I'm guessing you don't know either. It could be for the fact that you can buy an AR for 1-2 K (being a COLT with some fancy optics) vs the 4-5 K for one MP5 without optics. And for the gentleman who claims that I'm in deep doo doo when the BG (Bad Guy) I shoot doesn't go down because he is wearing soft body armor you sir are correct. I'm sure in your little world the number of criminals who commit acts of B and E wearing assault gear is astounding. But in the world the rest of us call home I'm sure you'll find that statistically the number of BG wearing vests for the purpose of B&E doesn't exist. See? Said BG would most likely sell the vest for money as thats the reason criminals steal to begin with. |

You said, not me. Youre an idiot. Why dont you do a lil bit of reading, instead of relying upon what your gun range commando boys are saying. TacticalForums.com, is a good choice, so is The Ammo Oracle, but who/what am I kidding, you wont do that. I assume your s/n has to do with Murphy's Rules. Well expect the unexpected. People say I dont expect to have to shoot through a car door, or a windshield, or a wall, but what if you need to? |

My nightstand gun is an unissued Dallas PD P226, with a 20rd mag loaded with RA9T+one in the chamber. I have a Surefire P114(?) under the frame. There are 4 more loaded 20 round mags with the same round.
My 11-87 is loaded with 7 rounds of Hornyday TAP 00Buck, and its sits in the closet. My AR15 is loaded with 30 rounds of 69gr SMK, and is tucked away. My AK(SAR1) is loaded with 30 rounds of 124gr Sapsan JHP My 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser is loaded with 5 140gr SMKs loaded by PMC. |

Nothing, the UN, Tony Blair and The Police will protect me here in the UK when a gun/knife wielding robber breaks into my apartment.
Seriously though, at least I have a smith&wesson tanto knive, which will give me a little more than just my plain fists. Gotta love this country where we don't have the right to own/carry tools for self defense... |

Nope, I use astroglide |

Next to the bed: Glock 20 with DoubleTap 165 gr Golden Sabers @1425 fps.
Near the bed - a MAK90 AK and a Mossberg 590. Lots of others not far away. |

G26, Sig .40 (wife's), and Surfire light in a key/push pad pistol safe. Rem 1100 on wall of closet in LifeJacket clam shell.
(Wife has more fire power....flame suit on. Mine G26 is my every day carry.) |

Glock 23 w/night sights and a glock light on the rails, 165 gr gold dots, in a "rock around the clock" safe on top of the nightstand. Surefire E2E in the drawer so I have two lighting options.
|
|
Kimber Warrior loaded with 230 gr. Gold Dots with a Streamlight M6 in the nightstand.
Remington 870 with Federal Tactical #4 buck behind the dresser. |
|
I alternate between a Kimber Eclipse Pro II with night sights used with separate Surefire 6p (shooting hand over wrist technique) and a Glock 17 with mounted tact light and 17 round mags. Both are loaded with first few rounds Gold Dots followed by FMJs.
I guess I'm one of those who never did decide between 9mm and .45. Tj |
|
A pair of Ruger GP100 .357 Magnums, loaded with the original eeeeevil Black Talons. That should get me to the really nasty stuff.

Nothing My ARs locked in the safe upstairs because my mom does daycare and all guns have to be in a safe. Guess I have to hope I can get upstairs to my weapon before the BG gets to me.

So what you're saying is that I HAVEN'T Shot thru steel @ 300 yrds with 55 grn FMJ? Do ya want pics?? See I don't rely on reading as much as first hand experience. So I don't rely on what my range commando buddies tell me I rely on what I do and see for myself. Maybe you can take other peoples words or writtings as the end all and be all but I don't. Its 8:57 am here in NJ. I'm designing a little experiment as we speak to test 9mm vs .223. We'll call it the WALL OF TRUTH. Regardless of the outcome I'll post the results with pics. I'll also include pics of the steel target with .223 holes in it if its still at the range. BTW thanks for the idiot comment. Nice to know that someone can have a differnt point of view on here. I guess trying to belittle people on here makes you feel better about yourself. And no it's not based on Murphy's Rules its Murphy's Law which states anything that can go wrong will go wrong at the worst possible time. |
