A man in Tomball, Texas, was startled out of his sleep by the sound of someone kicking in his front door on Monday night.
He quickly retrieved his firearm, ready defend his life and property — though he likely didn’t anticipate the intense firefight that would occur.Two suspects and homeowner traded more than 30 shots during the aggressive home invasion, KHOU-TV reports.

I can see where 17+ rounds of 9mm could be handy if you are trying to keep the bad guys from getting close enough to get a shot at you. A shotgun with buckshot would be nice in such a situation but not if you must expose yourself to shoot it. Same with a carbine. This may be a case where the badguys decided they met someone who put up too much fight and attracted too much attention , so it was time to go. And the victim gets to live to fight another day.
ReplyDeleteI believe you can't be too careful. At night, a Glock 21 is right there, but an AK and a Saiga 12 are nearby, since you just never know.
DeleteIm a firm believer that you cant have enough IRON handy. An AK is downright handy in close quarters and even if you didnt hit a bad guy, they are so loud, they would probly chase a bad guy away.
ReplyDeleteYes, Sir. :)
DeleteI cannot envision a situation where I would regret having too much fire-power close at hand.
ReplyDeleteIf I have to explain why I would want and need more than the artifical and magical limit of 10 rounds, then you will never be able to understand it. I'm not going to waste my time trying to explain it to an idiot who has zero common sense or logic. To those who do, two words; superior firepower. There are many examples of people who have been shot multiple times (10 plus), who have been on so much brain eradicator (aka drugs) that their brain didn't get the message their body was telling them that they have been shot. PSA, to the rest of the Sheeple; what you see on TV, during your favorite crime shows does NOT match to what happens out in the real world. Only in the fantasy world of a CSI, do the good guys get to put down the bad guys with their never miss two rounds center of mass shots (and never take a hit themselfs). Or get into a gun fight without wearing any body armor at all.
ReplyDeleteSome good points.
