I appreciate the advice from all. Unfortunately it's nicotine that is the problem in that it has a bad effect on the drugs that I have to take for my Crohn's disease. Nicotine in any form. No patch, no vapors, no gum, no nothing. This has to be cold turkey and if the pipes and tobacco are...

Well, fellers...... I haven't been around these forums in quite a while. Doesn't mean I haven't been enjoying the weed. Just been too busy or concentrating my forum time with other pursuits. So I'm back. But not for long. I'm a ciggy smoker primarily and for health reasons those have GOT...

Is nobody actually reading these days?!? The proposed "warning shot" that has become so controversial is post-facto. It's actually an after shot done when the perpetrator is already dead on the floor and done to help your defense in court, not defense in your home. It's a shot done after...

I think you misread the post. Relevant part has been "bolded." In short, eliminate the threat (shoot the bad guy), then fire a shot in the door jam so you can later claim that you fired a warning shot.

I'm going to disagree with almost everything you said and so would most home defense experts. While it is true that racking a pump shotgun is one of the most intimidating sounds known to man, it also informs an intruder that you're up and about and gives them a rough approximation of your...

Northwoods is my go-to tobacco. I simply love the stuff. My favorite aro of theirs is the Bear Blend, a nice caramel/vanilla flavor that gets lots of compliments for it's room note but is sickly-sweet at all. Their new Piper's Pleasure is a great one for morning coffee or after dinner. I...

I'm off! Well, almost. I take off tomorrow at 1:00pm to head to the Denver airport. From there it is about 20 hours on planes to get to our final destination. Those years of travel by motorcycle have paid off as I have everything I need for a ten day international trip contained within one...

I hope you have a very, very, VERY good lawyer if they're running and she's still shooting.

You put shotshells in that? Is that a new .410/45LC version? :D Re-read thread title. If it was home defence in total I would have also posted pics of my .45, .38, 140lb husky/wolf halfbreed, and others.:lol:

I can't afford too many shotguns, but I love to hunt turkey. Good thing a turkey gun is short and easy to handle. :D I got an 870 Express Sureshot Synthetic Turkey model. Thumbhole stock, 21" barrel.

Pics or it didn't happen.:D

That portion that I quoted inspired a guy to actually try and build a toaster from scratch. I bought his book and it was an entertaining read. Here's a link to the project: http://www.thetoasterproject.org/

That is NOT the book in question. However, looking at the description and reviews, it appears that it may be worth picking up sometime. http://www.amazon.com/Art-Shen-Ku-Intergalactic-Universe/dp/0399527257/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1326888339&sr=8-1 The author is definately exactly unlike...

All this is excellant advice. I got pretty heavy into pellet guns a few years back. The AF Talon is a helluva machine and the accuracy is amazing. It is expensive, however. The good news is that when I started cutting back the resale on the Talon's are really good so it only cost me about...
