Same here I keep letting my wife practice with our Remington 870 12 gauge...she is getting used to the kick back!

I think she did right well with what she had.
Proper ammunition for that .38 was the problem . She hit him 5 out of six shots .Hospital report lists 5 entry wounds : punched both lungs , liver , and stomach . Also lists 4 exit wounds . I'd guess hardball that punched through and through instead of defensive rounds that would have inflicted more damage and stayed in the carcass .

May have hit him with all 6 shots...2 in same entry wound...

X3 here as well, Dano all you do is try to incite people. You suggest not reading/responding to your posts, but Dano must I point out you are the one chasing threads here!:BangHead::laughing7: Can't have it both ways!

D If you let the guy get to you HE WINS If you've ever been worked on by professionals you'd know he's a amateur. Peace be with you

He is not getting to me, I just can't stand his anti-american trash he spews. But you are for sure correct. He is a amateur! Peace be with you as well.

shotgun is the way to go for intruder home defense - nothing like the racking of a shot gun to deter crime. It's a universally recognized sound! Or just a simple double barrel. Can't miss with the spread, so should never need a reload.
Got a lot of experience in gun fighting and home defense , have ya ? Share some of that firsthand experience with us unwashed , uneducated masses .

You're constant libelling of me without a shred of evidence to back it up is getting tiresome. For the last time...just because i may have different opinions than you, (or anyone else here) just because i may poke a stick and throw some facts and "hometruths" around that goes against your very skewed "American view only" force fed education, just because i make you angry because of your percieved ideas i'm wrong....doesn't mean i spew anti-American trash! lol.

So, between ME & YOU, as you're the only one who's said it....show me anything i've posted that legitimately shows i'm "anti-American"?
Show me anything i've posted/said that legitimately shows i "hate America"?

Put your cards on the table. No waa waa waaa'ing, no excuses, no veering off the subject.
, no getting help from your buddies,Just back yourself up and prove i am what you say, and i'll show what you are!

I saw the article about the lady. funny I only saw it on one of the big internet sites, not the other. I would never own a tiny handgun. I hope she doesn't get sued, lawyers cost a lot.

"Your Honor. It is quite obvious that my client was shot unlawfully causing him to recieve grevious injuries! The woman was well within her rights to brandish her weapon to protect herself and her children, that is not in question. What is in question is:
Why didn't this woman stand at the top of the stairs, with her weapon in plain sight so my client could see that she was armed, giving my client ample opportunity to realise his mistake and leave the house?
Instead, she lured him into a dark attic where without warning she emptied her pistol into my client from very close range with the obvious intention of killing him!
The defense moves for a complete dismissal of all charges against my client!"

Ah huh! I know lawyers. ;)

Well, you don't! That's just my personal opinion of you and has nothing to do with being "anti-American" or "hating America"! lol.

I said "something "legitimate".

Yay finally the good guys win!
Haha If I had a .38 I would hide away in the attic too. I mean, really,,, that's just embarrassing.:sadsmiley:
Ok to be honest I must suffer from big bore syndrome, which means I must be compensating for something else. haha

Its really good to hear the family is alright
But why did they guy enter the attic space in the first place ? (Ooo lets go see what they got in the attic :dontknow: :icon_scratch:)
All the good stuff would be in the sitting room or lounge ...

Thing is if he recovers and gets off, will he come after the wife again ?
I hope he wouldn't be that dum ..

Dano, if I was at my computer and not using my phone I could find many more examples of your anti American trash. How about your name calling "neanderthol " comes to mind.

Again, that's personal and not anti-American trash. I didn't say you had to respond immediatly. There's no rush on my part.

I believe name calling personal or otherwise is against Tnet. Rules...just saying.

He went to the attic to murder or attack the woman, but I think you already knew that.

Yep, someone beat me to it. The burgler is more than likely gonna get an atty, sue the victim, or intended victim.
Way to many articles when one googles "burgler sues victims".

One advantage of using a 12 gauge at close range,the dead cant sue.
