    How Necessary is a Weapon?

    I assume you could proovide a source for that for that statistic. Every source I can find show that number to be way low.

    Do you need it?

    I also reach for my shotgun, sort of. I travel with my Taurus Raging Judge. I get to choose, .410 round or .454. So many decisions. BTW I think you overestimate the penetration of a hollow point. A 10 mm perhaps, not the Casul.

    What's your favorite carry weapon?

    Well said. I love what Canada looks like but I cannot stand your gun control laws. I was held at the border for over 2 hours simply because I was honest and said I do own handguns and nave a CCW, though I said I was not carrying at that point

    No flowing water?????

    Would definitely check your pressure regulator. Last trip I swapped FW hoses and did not put the pressure reducer/regulator on by mistake. I had water for a few seconds and then lost the water flow. I think this is a good area for you to look at

    What's your favorite carry weapon?

    Assuning one i close enoufh that all 4 discs and 16 pellets hit center mass og its intended target it will have a pretty large force of impact on a person. Put this center mass and I will think ut wull be a challenge for a gun to be drawn and fired. THis if course assumes one is close enough...

    What's your favorite carry weapon?

    I do not use my 9mm at all for a defensive load. It simply does not have the knockdown impact I desire. My 9 mm is simply the handgun I use for keeping my proficiency with weapons. It is a cheap load to shoot a couple hundred at the range. Even the gun I bought for my wife is a .40. If I have...

    What's your favorite carry weapon?

    So going after my Second Ammendment Rights is not enough? You wish to go for the First also? I do not understand why you wish to take away the rights of those who wish for nothing more than to keep their families and friends safe by carrying for defensive purposes only. If you deosre to not...

    How Necessary is a Weapon?

    I agree with most posts in this forum. It is a personal choice on how one decided to defend himself and his family. I personally never go anyhere without one of my handguns. I maintain proficient and carry loads that are designed to be a one shot stop. I use the Winchester PDX-1 .410 loads in my...

    Removing anode from hot water tank

    If you hook a multimeter across it you will find the tape does not destroy the electrical connection at all. The threads cut the tape leaving plenty of contact.

    The Ultimate Self Defense Weapon for the RV and Home

    Agreed. My newest is the Raging Judge. It also shoots .454 casul loads. Now it is a bear gun also.

    Removing anode from hot water tank

    When I put my anode back in I completely wrap the thread with Teflon tape. This not only prevents leaks it prevent galling of threads and corrosion deposits on the threads. Give it a try. I use it on all threaded joints.

    The Ultimate Self Defense Weapon for the RV and Home

    Last I read The Governor .410 loads are 2 1/2 inch loads. I snake country I prefer the extra shot with the 3" loads I can use in The Judge. Both are versatile and pack a great punch at close range.

    Laser or no laser

    I have to ask. What is the range you are planning to use your pistol at? If is more than 15 yards I question you need to use it at all. If you do need to use it and assuming you are in the dark, tell me what this bright coherent beam of red light looks like from its source. If you are pointing...

    My Personal Choice

    Give me the Taurus Judge anytome. PDX-1 .410 shells are an incredible self-defense load. I load 3 of them with 2 .45 Long Cols (hydrashocks) just to make sure I can get my point across if needed.

    What's your favorite carry weapon?

    Sorry but the way I see it is this is no different than asking how many of the people who reply on this or any other thread have used their life insurance policy. My firearms are just that, a life insurance policy. I do not care whether or not I have had to use it. I care that it is there if I...
