    Very good. I am not against guns when proper training as he says is implemented. I just can't see keeping guns here with my two kids.

    With all due respect, train the kids. The settlers of this country had the 'kids' out hunting soon as they could heft the piece. Mike

    Some people just need an excuse. I was hunting with my own gun at five years of age. My youngest grandaughter will be hunting big game by the time she is eight.

    You would if some scumbag crack/meth heads broke in to do a home invasion.

    Taking a firearms course is short and smart no matter where you live, especially when you have kids. I wish my Parents taught me about guns. I'm thankful that I eventually learned . When we had a muti-WEEK power outage in Boca Raton Fla, believe me it felt a little bit better with the colonel strapped on in the darkness, KNOWING that if someone came thru the door, WE would be fine.

    He should hang the perps head on the wall of his shop as a warning to other would be robbers. image

    I agree, but since that is impossible, maybe a photo of the scumbag lying there dead would be appropriate.

    Good story with the exception of the political affiliation the writer puts into it. I find that sort of reporting to be RUBBISH and not conducive to UNITING US.

    What kind of coins did the dealer specialize in ?

    I'm at a loss. Why the opposition to self-defense?

    "I know what you're thinking. Did he fire six shots or only five? Well to tell you the truth in all this excitement I've kinda lost track myself. But being this is a .44 Magnum - the most powerful hand gun in the world and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question--Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya punk!

    Not sure if that's what worked but no blackbirds for years. I recently had to off an insane crow that was pecking at all my windows and ruining my screens. Glad the neighbors didn't see the guy out in his front yard in his underwear with a pellet gun with muzzle brake and scope that looks way too much like a sniper rifle. One shot, one kill. --Jerry
