  1. I doubt it would have happened that way in the US. They'd have him under the jail. Of course, if it happened in NYC, that guy would be filled with 40 holes before he even went for his gun.

  2. The Mossberg M590 is a pretty good looking shotgun by the way! I could definitely see defending my perimeter with that...

  3. In the dark, in an emergency, and in the confusion that would always accompany that kind of situation, maybe an intruder would not have to know that it wasn't loaded. That could maybe buy you some time, no? Assuming that you don't have an actually loaded weapon pointed at you.

    Once odumba, pelosi, and the rest of the liberal, Godless morons get their way, we'll be in the same boat as you boxer in NY...Sad times were in!)

    Ironically Odumba's sixth cousin was WILD BILL HICKOK.

  5. How threatening does a person have to become before you can safely (in a legal sense) tazer him?

  6. I feel really bad for the people living in New York and Chicago who are denied the right to defend themselves with a firearm. Hopefully future Supreme court cases will apply the recent second amendment ruling to the states as well...via the 14th amendment. Its simply ridiculous that law-abiding citizen cannot buy a simple handgun to protect their families in places like that.

    I currently live in Michigan, and have previously lived in Texas and Florida and have had concealed carry permits in each state. Michigan's pistol laws were reformed after the gun owners got organized and active and demanded changes a few years back. Obviously Bloomberg and company will block any meaningful changes to NYC's gun laws, but he will not be able to block any court rulings. If you live in NYC and want to reclaim your 2nd amendment rights...I would suggest a donation to some of the state based gun rights organizations and the NRA, especially their legal defense fund.

    Movies... yeah... you can tune up your senses and your sixth sense with martial arts, you won't be able to do that watching movies!

  8. Martial arts skills are good, there's no doubt about that, in my mind. Really really good. Martial arts skills and a gun, though, that's a lot better.

  9. The problem with the 590 is it's not as versatile (i.e. more specialized) as the 500. They're basically the same weapon, but you can't change chokes on the 590. I don't know if you can change barrels on the 590 but you can definitely change barrels on the 500. The 500 can be used for hunting most anything because of that. The 590 is basically designed for killing people; hate to say it like that but there ya go.

    Don't let the survivalist message boards and pictures of Marines with 590's cloud your objectivity. Who cares if the weapon is tactical black or wood grain walnut and blued steel?

  10. I thought he was speaking about Kennedy's nephew. You know the drunk that drove thru a capitol barrier while claiming to be on Ambien?
