My New Concealed Carry Weapon Arrived in the Mail Today
« Reply #30 on: December 12, 2007, 03:49:39 AM »
If it came with a bayonet I might be afraid to face one of those. A short range single shot weapon like that is woefully inadequate for self defense. It is a tool to make arresting someone easier at best. The problem with shooting someone in the front with a tazer (as opposed to shooting a fleeing suspect in the back) is that it is very easy for the target to rip out the leads if he's quick. However the main problem (as others have pointed out) is that its a single shot weapon, so if you're facing multiple bad-guys it is useless ... and might get you robbed and killed instead of just robbed.

Oh and btw: What is it with you? First an electric car and now an electric gun? ;)

Did I miss something.  What is it you do for a living?  Is it dangerous?  I don't understand why you need these weapons.  I live in Camden County New Jersey, about 15 or 20 minutes from the city of Camden New Jersey recently, the murder capital of the country.  I lived there for 40 years and I've never had a problem.  I can't imagine anything worse than the city of Camden New Jersey.  You must live in a real hellhole.  I feel bad for you if that's your circumstance.  Or are you just paranoid?

Oh these are very usefull.  After all, it is difficult to feed the chipper when they squirm.

Of course, that's what the freezer is for.  But then you still need to load the freezer.

Perhaps if law abiding people in New Jersey could carry either handguns or tasers for protection, the Camden murder rate there would not be so horrific.   But since you can't, I guess we will never know.

I feel very safe living where I am.   The crime rate is fairly low, despite the fact that we have one of the lowest per capita levels of police officers in the nation.

I am so glad that I did not let him see any of my naughty BLACK guns.   I'll post them here for you to view, but please don't mention these guns to anyone else here in this forum, OK??

Here is my giant, super-sized AK-47, chambered for the powerful 7.62 NATO round ( .308 Win ).   SAIGA just started making these more powerful versions of the AK-47 in Russia a few years ago:





My Colt AR-15 Sniper Rifle:





My plain old AR-15 from Rock River:





My Custom Bushmaster Special Operations AR-15 in the new 6.8 mm SPC cartridge:







My high-capacity FN semiautomatic Military and Police Shotgun, with Electronic gun sight:






My Glock is sort of bad, too.  I own several 17 and 19 round magazines for it, and I got a local dealer to sell me a lot of extra powerful police ammunition for use in it too:





However, I do not carry any of these guns around town with me for personal protection.   They are all safely locked up inside safes, except for the shotgun.  It is fully loaded with these:





and is right next to my bed, in case any mean stranger comes into my bedroom.

Ahh the varmit killer right?

You are the guy who goes off on fun killing sprees of rodents and giggles as they fall off high places after being shot.  I think I recognise you from the pic.

You kinda missed the point lazs.

Nothing is wrong with owning guns or even killing varmints (if they are truely causing some kind of harm). The onus was on the glee at shooting them and enjoying the long fall and bounce off the rocks into the river where they made a wonderful bloody splash. True sportsmanlike fun there.

Have you guys ever shot varmits?  and.. what varmit is not causing harm?

You do get a little calloused to their "plight" after killing a couple of dozen.. no matter who you are..   You really can't help it.  You are elated when you make a good shot and it does get the juices going.   In short.. it is fun.   It is good target practice and it is good for the land and it is... fun.

These particular kills were not "good for the land" and if you remembered the post you would know that.
