I'm supposed to go shooting tomorrow.

Oh, I see now.

I always thought James Bond's gun was fictional...as in it really wasn't a real make or model of gun...but then again I don't know much about guns. :(

I have a Walther PPK/S .380. Calibre sucks for this weapon as the spring is too stiff/round is too weak. g/f thought this was the gun she wanted to shoot because it was small but quickly learned lesson in physics as the weapon is too light. This equals a bruised hand and stovepipes galore. Also barrel is welded to frame making it a pain to clean. Anyway, I have a 92FS that is much easier to shoot, more accurate and a better round.

Now, if you're talking home defense with small children, I have to go with the 454 casull, S/W 500 and 12 gauge pump shotgun. These are the kinds of weapons that don't require ammunition. Rack the 12 gauge, and point the hand cannon. Once the bad guys hear the sound and realize that the tunnel they are looking in is really a barrel, they lose the will to retain their bowels. And without any ammo, no threat to the little ones.

(Sorry for bringing this back from the dead.)

Only problem with not having the shotgun loaded is that the idiot may call the bluff. If I point a weapon at someone, I'm prepared to put a hole in them!
