Went to the range today. Fired 3 mags through my Interarms ppk/s .380 before switching to some different handguns. After a while, I went back to the ppk/s loaded a mag, fired one round fine. Pulled the trigger again and the gun fired a full auto burst of 5 rounds. It startled the crap out of...
I must have edited my post at the same time you were posting.
I'm fairly certain my wife would arm herself if possible. She hasn't gotten over her fear of guns, but has gone to the range and knows what to expect when it goes bang.
nowhere near enough information to make snap judgments. We don't know the layout of the home. The mom and daughter were upstairs. The thief was in the living room. Do you have to cross the living room to get to the kitchen? Seems like the OP is being a bit rash.

I suppose one could say it's better to have a safe in the car than to not.........but once the car is stolen, it doesn't matter if the gun is in a safe or dangling from the rear view mirror. It's gone, and in somebody else's hands.
I can understand the school scenario. It's not plausible in...
There's a part of me that wants to come down on the side of responsibility and training.........but really, responsibility can't be forced onto someone. The above comment is all that really needs to be said. It's sad and scary that many people won't take the time to become proficient with...
Another reason I wouldn't keep a gun in my vehicle is because I'm afraid I'd forget it was there while loaning the car to my daughter or attending a school event. That's totally on me, but still.....it's a reason.
Because, locked in a car, in a safe or not they are very easily stolen. My safe is not removable without destroying my house in the process. Even a sturdy free standing gun safe is decidedly more difficult to remove from a house. A car can be easily stolen and a safe in a car is nothing more...
lapdog is as lapdog does. If you have a comment of any value against what I posted, I'd love to hear it. Mindlessly rattling my chain while somebody else tries to make a logical argument against me is the work of a lapdog.
I agree life goes on, I just don't like the idea of anybody being robbed or shot with a gun I left in my own car.
I guess it's just a personal preference. I carry on one me. When I get in the car it's on me and when I leave the car it's on me.
Well, considering the fact that I don't live in a mobile home, my house isn't mobile......therefore, it can't be stolen like a car can be stolen. Since it can't be stolen, none of my guns can be taken from it unless the perps bring pneumatic jack hammers with them
