I don't care about those that are not armed. I don't know why you are here.

I'd have done the same thing as the poster (with the same choice of weapon), except I would have kept it at low ready with my finger off the trigger until he drew a weapon or became an imminent, deadly threat.

Nearly all people on AR15.com are well adjusted, have common sense, & are pro-social. Posting behind a computer screen & being mostly anonymous, it is easy for many to make fantastic statements.

I firmly believe the strongest action 99% of us would take would be to confront the trespasser with a concealed pistol.

However, a lot of folks enjoy the fun of make-believe scenarios and end up posting some rather extreme points of view. And that's just fine. This is the place for it.

Like I said in the other post, I would have gone out there with my 870 Express with 18" barrel, four rounds of 00 buck in the magazine, chamber empty, safety off. I would do this because my shotgun is what I keep loaded in my house. Great all purpose weapon, no worries about ricochet or overpenetration, and cycling the action will intimidate most people.

And when they shoot the dog, what was your plan? Run in the house and get a broom?

No overpenetration? That is the Exit.

00 Went through a Metal Covered Insulated Door and the wall beyond it.

Granted I would use my AR and I want a Mossberg for the same reason. Yet unless you have birdshot in it, you always have an over penetration concern.

"Know your target and what is beyond it." Even with a .22 or birdshot.

Where were your psychic powers to predict the future when he needed it?

LOL first thing I thought of.

Unfortunately, poll doesn't have combo's, like carbine with concealed handgun (a nice "natural disaster" response kit, as some discovered in N.O.).

A Glock 17. That's one of my dream handguns...since I saw an article in Popular Mechanics.
