[QUOTE="50Shooter, post: 1138053, member: 1026"] You can't afford to use a firearm that fails to stop in the first shot 90% of the time. Unfortunately that describes just about every handgun. Read everything written by Dr. Martin Fackler and Wound Ballistics research. Unless you want to shoot someone then try out your Brazilian Ju-Jitsu, you need to employ a long gun in self defense. Centerfire Rifles have stopping power. With the correct load, and within the proper distance, so do shotguns. When someone is in your house, coming after you with a knife, you don't have time to dance around with them. You need to stop them immediately. Handguns are for walking around in public where you can not normally carry a long gun. In your home there is no such restriction. Of course this is my opinion, I welcome discussion/debate. :) Fiddy [/QUOTE]
