[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 4121181, member: 15054"] If the bad guy is coming at you or darn close don't tell me you will pull up and try to get him/her in a sight. You can thumbs down the hip shot but it works. Works on deer also. I know of 2 that died from hip shooting. One took a 250 gr muzzloader round and fell on the spot and another was a single 55 v-max from an ar, it made 1 last jump and piled up. The muzzleloader shot deer was close enough to poke it with the barrel. My son shot it. He was walking a trail with his head down and remembered a story i told him of a friend of mine looking down at his shoes while walking a trail. Looked up after he realized No Deer in my shoes and seen 2 deer staring at him. My son thought about that and looked up and at the same time a deer was walking towards him on the trail looking at the ground. They both looked up at the same time. Almost crashed into each other. Hip shot point blank. Every one has opinions. For self defense in a home I do not know if it will be dark or light and i do not need a battery operated thing I have to rely on to help me shoot. I have hand guns all over the house with regular iron sights on them ready to go. My father-in -law put his handgun away when we went to his house with my 4 year old grandson. He was worried about the boy messing with it. I told him he is well educated in weapons and does not mess with them unless he asks and he reloads ammo on top of that. [/QUOTE]
