Jonster, I feel a lot safer with the Glock 27. I've shot over 800 rounds with all types of cheap ammo, and it NEVER? jamed!

If you ever had to protect yourself with it and shot someone with home-brewed ammo, you'd be roasted alive by the deceased's family's attorneys.? Use reloads for practice and plinking, but keep it loaded with factory ammo!? (Check out the Glase Safety Slug line.)
Good hunting,

Monk said:? ? ?Well here is my opinion as to be armed or not! If one is going in the wilds were there is 4 legged threats a 44 cal. or 12 gage would be in order. ---- However, In cities as well as in the bush more likely no one will bother you till they fill they have the drop on you.------- In cities there's just some places you don't want to go! If your white stay out of the black neighborhoods. Street gangs are taking over the cities. Drugs are taking over the people, and to feed $300. a day habbits people are picking up the gun as working just wont do it.? ------- Say your in the wrong place at the wrong time. And your armed? Likely there will be 3 to 5 thugs surround you and ask for what you have. There armed also! Now you would be very foolish to want to draw against that. And say you could and you shoot someone, if you dont get shot yourself in the process. Likely it would cost more in lawyer fees to get you out of the spot then you would loose.? ------ Most crooks are not out to kill you, but to take what you have. and if you had a gun on you they would take that also. So I'd feel safer to go unarmed in city and let them have what they want then run the chance of getting killed, or having killed someone and having to deal with that. Most of these mostly young street crooks live fast, and go to prison or die young. If you dont feel safe where you might find youself, move on out of area or at least dont go alone. Then again maybe go alone if you don't know how your partner will react, he may get you both hurt or worse.? There's my 2 cents. In the end everyone must do what they think is right.

I think Ted Nugent said it well: Rapist, child molesters, kidnappers, murderer's shoot them dead. No costly trials, jail, or parole. In Florida just in the past month we've had 2 child molesters abduct rape, and murder a 9 yr old girl out of her bedroom while she was sleeping, and a 12 yr old abducted, molested, and burried alive. What the hell are these guys doing back on the streets in the first place! Now the state is passing a law (or already did) to monitor all the sexual predators with ankle bracelets. This will cost the taxpayers millions of dollars for this, and still can't stop them from molesting and killing our kids! This would just show that they were at the seen of the crime. Again, what the hell are these guys, that have previous convictions doing back on the steets!![]()
