re: #430 EricWRN
I use a Sig Sauer P232 for my cnc. Shotty for home protection.
as you mentioned:
intimidation factor: shotgun: 10
Safety: well, it’s a gun so it’s not built for that, but with the new frangible rounds out there, I know if I miss my bullets won’t be sprayed over my neighborhood. give it a 9
accuracy: And, speaking of missing, I really don’t see that happening, whereas with a pistol, who knows? - 10
Handguns are cool and all, but each weapon has its optimal use. I’ll probably convert mine further by adding a pistol grip at some point. Of course, any would-be perp has to get through my 70lb German Shepherd before getting to me and my family, so my paranoia is probably a bit unfounded. A few barks from her and I put money on the perp deciding on another residence to break into.
That’s just me.
