[QUOTE="Chuckie, post: 4068301, member: 42584"] " . . . [B]a wounded and mad advisory can be a very big worry. The plan of just pointing or hip shooting old Betsy down the hall can produce the latter."[/B] That can be very true, but I would bet that pointing [and shooting] 'ole Betsy' at "an already wounded and mad advisory" running down a 20 foot hallway isn't going to go well for that 'attacker' regardless whether it's from the shoulder or (for a faster shot) from the hip, considering the narrow width of the typical hallway. Going back to the very first paragraph I said in my very first comment on this thread (#28): "Granted that they are considered by many to be a 'nich' firearm (just like a derringer or Punt gun) that may not be suitable for THEIR particular situation, however, others find that these type of firearms fit well in the roll that they were intended for - a close quarters, one-shot-one-kill, fire-from-the-hip, inexpensive, light weight, short-barrelled, and a short overall length non-NFA firearm. With a definite 'pucker-factor' for anyone facing the business end." Simply put for all those that absolutely have nothing better to do than pick apart every word I say - when it comes to choice of home-defense solutions, y'all do what works best for you in your particular situations and I'll do what works best for me, in mine :thumbup3: [/QUOTE]
