  guns for self defense

I'll agree with the 357 MAG but you really don't need an expensive one as the Python. The King Cobra would be just as good and you'd save some bucks. As far as a shotgun, one of those police (hi capacity) pump shotguns would give you plenty of fire power. I'd stay away from the rifle for home defense.

The wife may be a bit intimidated by these guns (noise/kick) but with a little practice, she would do fine.

That's another thing, auto verses double action. In a live or die situation, you are most likely 'not' to make a mistake with a double action. I say a mistake, in an auto, as can't find the safety or accidently pull the trigger.

I know there's gonna be a lot of people that disagree with this but in a situation of this nature, emotions run high.

AC5ZO,

If I'm not mistaken, a shotgun with a barrel of less than 18 inches is illegal, no matter where you live. It's considered a sawed-off shotgun. If you're caught with one, it's a felony and the shotgun will be confiscated and destroyed. There are no ATF licenses for such guns.

You're right, AC5ZO. With a clean background and 200 bucks, you can register these guns. Although I doubt you can in some states (California for instance). Just be sure to register it before you take possession. Once you possess it, without it being registered, it's already illegal and can't be registered.

As for the Brady Law, it's here to stay. Most states have even added to the Brady Law.

Actually Doc, NICS is a direct result of the Brady law. The Brady law stated that NICS would be up and running by Nov. 30 1998.

I agree, thank God. It's really stupid anyway. If I was a scum suckin murderin SOB and wanted to kill someone, how long do you think it would take me to buy a gun? You're right, about 5 minutes. All this law does is punish the innocent. It does nothing against criminal activity.
