Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire How many of you "think" you would be able to deal with this and how would you do it?

Looks like a good one.Ya gonna have to destroy the door to get in.

You don't need a dog or a Glock. Just krap your panties like you usually doo here , that and your buzzard breath should keep most intruders away from your outhouse domecile.... any that make it thru you can bore them to death.

Now GFY

We live far enough from town to expect to deal with most situations ourselves. I wouldn't have a problem facing a local jury for putting speed holes in a intruder. I expect to be the only living witness to testify anyway

It's 200 yards to the corner of the lane when a vehicle is visible, 100 ft deep gullys on three sides of the house that would be hard to get to to begin with. A mountain cur to watch out that doesn't miss anything, a couple of 16" AR's one on each side of the bed with a 29 round load with 5 tracers at the bottom and a spare, a pistol in every room and a retired Marine Viet vet that went thru Major Land's school that lives a half mile on the only road to come in that doesn't sleep well. Think I will be okay.

I was on the wrong end one time.
I was doing a job out at a place called Little Lake Ca.
I got there before sun up and there was an old abandoned burned out Motel at the off ramp of the freeway.

I was told to wait until someone from the crew showed up and lead me into the job site at the top of the hill.

Well things being the way they were and the place I was at. I started walking around the motel looking at stuff. Didn't even think of going inside because it looked like it could implode at any time.

Still dark out side and I hear a lever being cycled behind me.

I turned to see a guy pointing a rifle at my head.

He asked what I was doing there and I started spewing anything and everything I new about the job ,the crew, and the company that I was to meet.

He put the rifle down and we talked for about an hour before the crew showed up.

He was an unfortunate guy that had lost his high paying job snapped and became a hermit living in that old burned out motel.

I went back several years later to do another job up the hill and the motel had been removed. I some times wonder what happened to that guy. He was about the same age as me.

But talk about a PUCKER Factor.

I the case of someone breaking into my place I would probably end up loosing my life protecting my family but I would take as many as I could down with me.

the only problem I would have is not shooting one of my dogs.
and if one of the punks did, there would be a trail of bodies until there was a count of six.

what is a good watch dog that does Not shed??

The Bouvier des Flanders (Flandres, depending) is hypoallergenic..theoreticaly no shedding.

Cool azz dogs.....

In complete silence until meat was a foot wider than the door frame on the inside then use whatever it took of the 90 rounds of AR-10 308 to end the threat.

I had heard Ingwe's and NHK9's stories about Malinois, but had never met one. Then a year or two ago I'm gassing up in Junction, Tx, and see an older fellow pull up, deploy his power chair, let his dog out of his pickup, and head into the store. I'm busy gassing up the truck, and don't pay a lot of attention. I finish filling the truck, head into the restroom, and finish just about the time a door to the handicap stall opens. I look down and think, "oh damn, a Mal"

I compliment the owner on his dog, and note that the dog watches me carefully, but stays very calm. As I walk out I also note the guy had Vietnam veteran stickers on the back of his truck.

He had a fine dog, and seemed to deserve it.

This thread has me thinking of an Akita I owned some years ago.

I have to think that's the time/place for the .450!

While it is fashionable to tell a young attorney that "trying homicides is easy, it's just an assault with one less witness", nothing can be further from the truth. See, the "silent witness" is deified (Think TM) and there is no opportunity for cross examination to demonstrate what a POS he is. This complicates things immensely.

Laws of self defense vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Know the rules where you are. Everything written here could be admissible (if determined to be relevant) if you had to defend you or your home.

I strongly suggest those with interest in these issues to look at the Armed Citizen's Legal Defense Network. Excellent training materials and legal funding for self-defense incidents.

I believe that if a gun owner/user is REALLY responsible, they should be familiar with their state's laws on use of force and have a print-out of the home defense clauses always around. NY is a surprise to most in this respect as the use of DEADLY force is surprisingly more generous than most would believe. Article 35 of the NYS Penal Law.

Claymore and dragon's breathshells... burnt maroon looks much better than red spatter

This.

They might have killed me but I'd die with an empty mag and a hot barrel.
