My new security system =)

I think this was the model that was described to me...getting it for the new business; it's not the safest area, so I'd rather be safe than sorry. :respekt:

Looks like something Han Solo would carry.... should get the job done nicely!

Nice toy! You'll be safe... :cool:

Me shooting my Bushmaster AR-15 HB. MOA of less than 1" @ 50 meters. Good to have a bench and spotter too! :biggrin:

Cheers!

Sweet. The dealer that I'm going to mentioned he had lots of tactical shotguns, and even a few sawed offs in stock.

[Shroomster]

if you don't mind my asking (you can pm me if you want) what kind of price are you looking at for that? i'd like to get a pump action shot gun kind of like that but for home use and stripped down from that lol...

[Yaris Hilton]

I'm happier with mine with the regular buttstock and a plain bead sight. It's also got a 20" barrel and full length magazine that will hold a total of 8 3" shells with one in the chamber. (Only supposed to hold 6 in the mag, but with a folded crimp 7 of them just fit.)

The ones I was looking at ranged from around $300.00 to 600.00

I'm buying mine from the guy that bought my business, so the final price I'm not so sure about...it'll be either a really good deal, or I'll pay double. lol :wink:

I'll post a pic when I get my hands on it.

I don't understand the need for a sight. Even with slugs, iron sights on a red dot will do nicely.

Secondly, what's with the magazine?

I wouldn't buy something so "space aged," I prefer a simple and proven pump-action 12-gauge like the Mossberg Persuader...

Of for a little longer distances...

But if I have a real squirrel problem, I'd reach for one of these...

Yeah, if I ever need it it'll be close range, in the event I get jumped getting out of my vehicle or fumbling with the lock on the front door; I won't be checking my aim. Smaller the better. Like I said, it's not the safest area, but there are lots of electronic security cameras in the area.

Actually, I probably won't ever need to use it, but I'm still kicking myself for getting rid of the uzi pistol.

Wow... Am I sure glad I don't live down there!!!

Actually it's a very nice business park, only problem being the meth lab theme park 2 streets away.

Sad that where there is nice... there is ugly right next door! What is this telling you?

I use to live in Miami, FL. There is nice place just north of S. Miami on the bay called, "Coconut Grove" or simply the "Grove". The area turns from nice to bad... hard-ass slums within blocks! The dichotomy was so apparent.

...Again, what is this telling you?

[1stToyota]

Well, didn't get the shotgun. Only one he had that I actually liked was the loaded one under the counter. Found something I liked better...shoots .410 shotgun shells or 45s. I bought a box a .410 no. 4 pistol shot. :smile:

Love the caliber!!! :clap:

Don't care for the maker, though. In the 90's bought a Taurus compact 9mm... had many problems with the throat... double feeding problems. Sent it to Taurus to fix. They fixed it, but then I had throat catch problems. Got frustrated so I traded it in for a Sig-sauer P225 Compact 9mm. The best compact I have owned to date... IMHO.

I'm sure the Taurus was only a manufactured problem... a lemon. Most guns receivers are stamped instead of forged and milled. In that case, it is very hard to make precise accuracy in moving parts. You should be fine since your Taurus is a revolver... :smile:

Let us know how it shoots... :biggrin:

[1stToyota]

My favorite gun I've owned was an old Montgomery Ward .410 double barrel shotgun, don't know why I sold it. :bonk:

Guess I'll have to find a place to try it out, don't know if they allow .410s at pistol ranges...maybe if I put in .410 sluggers, or the 45s I guess, but I wanted to keep it loaded with .410 rest of the time.

This is something you really do see quite a bit in the US.

You can be in a nice area, walk a block or two, and suddenly find yourself in complete ghetto territory.

Downtown Detroit has nicer areas with the casinos, restaurants, sports venues, etc., but walk a few blocks the wrong way and holy sh!t, you will wish you were heavily armed.

So true! You sound as if you are viewing it through an outside perspective? Canada? I use to spend time in Ontario, Canada in the late 90's. When traveling through Buffalo, NY to Hamilton, ON you can see a big difference. Buffalo has so much more slums compared to Canada's city of Hamilton... seems like Canada is more cleaner overall? IMHO. However, friends tell me there are some rough spots in Toronto.

Have not been to Detroit for years. My uncle lives in Bloomfield Hills, just south of the old Pontiac Silvedome. He always said, stay out of downtown! They must of fixed up the downtown area recently? Displacing the residents further into poverty!

I am no fan of the Judge, but Taurus has vastly improved their products over recent years. Plus, all their guns have lifetime warranties no matter if you're the original owner or not. I traded for a used PT111 9mm that had a bent lip on one of the mags, and I called Taurus' CS and they gave me a return authorization number. I sent it back and in about a week I got a completely new magazine!

By the way, the Judge shoots .45 Long Colts...don't try to shoot .45 ACP though it!

Cheers! M2

[bkndacn]

I like the smaller one ... I think that it would fit perfectly into the glove box above the steering wheel ! =)

Good to know because I was thinking .45 acp
Mine is called the Night Court Judge, and it has more of a black matte finish instead of the normal glossy blued finish, so I don't know if that's good or bad, and I paid $400.00 [new] even for it, don't know if that was good or bad either. :redface:

Yeah it is from a different perspective than most people have.

I am from the Hamilton area. Canada is much cleaner and way more safe in general. It's really funny to me now, because when I'm back in Canada sometimes I hear people mention a "bad part of town" in Hamilton or Toronto, and I try not to laugh too hard.

Yes there are some gritty areas in Canada, but you're WAY less likely to get KILLED there than in the US.

A quick Google shows:

Detroit Murders in 2006 = 418 (47.3 per 100,000) (National Average 7 per 100,000)

All of Canada Murders in 2004 = 622 (1.9 per 100,00)

... Obviously those stats are not for the same year, but it gives you a small indicator of the difference.
