    locked breech 380 Keltec, you can get over 250 ft lbs, real expansion in flesh

    the stronger action of the locked breech lets you quite safely utilize handloads with 50% more CUP than is safe in blowback 380's. The factories do not DARE load 380 ammo that is unsafe in blowbacks, you see. If you pull the bullets out of Winchester 85 gr Silvertip jhp ammo, carefully...

    Marlin Papoose =MUCH > Survival rifle than AR-7.

    The latter is a piece of junk, and anyone with much experience at guns can tell you that as soon as they pick up the AR-7. It's made of pot metal, with a junk rear sight, with looseness a guaranteed thing between receiver and barrel, and the front sight is on the barrel, the rear sight is on...

    faster IS better. Why are so many so slow?

    you can become VERY fast, for almost no money, without ever leaving your home. Dryfire and airsoft will suffice to teach you the fast draw, and fast shouldering of a rifle, fast traverses to other targets, too. The typical rifleman "thinks" that 3 seconds, to shoulder a rifle and hit a man's...

    Read Sanow's book on stopping power?

    I don't care about the bs stories marshall tells, or the goat bs. what's interesting is the velocity measurements of some of the ammo Sanow tested, and the exotic type bullets offered at that time. did you know that tubular copper bullets were once sold here, by PMC, or that aluminum bulleted...

    I'll take real speed of draw, miss, over too slow, any day, regardless of tight group

    IF that ccw draw is a good 3/4 second faster than the "really accurate" guy's ccw draw, which mine is. :-) You can't intimidate or shoot anyone with a gun that you don't have out and 'on" them yet, you know. 8 x out of 10 attacks, you never have to fire, IF you get your gun out where the bad...

    if really NEED 12 ga power, shooting a guy with 357 would be pointless, right?

    The 356 only has 1/4-1/5th of the 12 ga's power, yet the 357 125 gr jhp is well known to do a fine job, IF you get a solid chest hit, not just a "torso" hit. half of the torso is the gut, you know. there is no reason to believe that a gut hit amounts to a damn.

    Anyone here read Cirillo's book on gunfighting?

    Notice on the cover, it says that of the 280 armed robbers cornered by NYPD'S stakeout unit, in 1968 in Harlem, only 40 "made" the cops shoot. That's 1 in 7, or 86% surrendered without a shot being fired. If the defender is smart, he will leave the attacker an escape route, and 90+% will take...
