Two different peace officers I knew in my past kept this combination in the night stand revolver
View attachment 1715780288View attachment 1715780289
In chamber #1 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . In the remainder, hollow base wad cutters, hand loaded base up.
They believed the flash, noise and pain of the bird shot would deter the invader.
If necessary the wad cutters mushroom like crazy upon impact when flying in reverse.
2 reasons for the wad cutters, massive damage to invader and less likely to wind up in the neighbor's house.

I bought some shot shells for my 38 revolver a few years ago mostly to take if I run into a copperhead snake when I go river fishing locally. I picked these up last Saturday to keep around the house.

Finally got a chance to take a few pictures. The two 22’s together are my keep practiced pieces and are very accurate. Ruger Mark II semi’s. The Smith&Wesson is manly a shop and truck piece. The M&P 9mm’s are about as big as I will go as a carry piece. I got carried away and bought two when I saw the “We The People” addition. I love the M&P Shield (380) and carry it 95% of the time. It replaced the LCP laser in the one picture. It’s around the house now. Ohhh the 38 revolver I bought over 20 years ago and never carried. I think I will find a nice load for it and use it more often.
 
Kimber Ultra carry in .45 ACP with the crimson trace laser grips. Why .45 ? Cause they don't make .46
 
I almost bought a 40 caliber and right before I did I just happened to talk to a friend that is a State Policeman. He talked me out of it by telling me they made the switch from 9’s to 40’s and went back to 9’s. They found a 9mm load that they fell in love with. I got him to text me a picture of the load and bought some online.

And why do we need to ask you what load this is?

I didn’t know you were interested or I was to lazy to get up again. Take your pick. Lol
These ones were recommended buy the guy at Rural King and were a stocked item so I grabbed some 380 and 9mm

These were recommended by the State Policeman but may jam in smaller guns so they must be tried in your gun. But then all ammo should be tried in your gun.

I love my SA XD-40. Accurate and makes a big boom. I have one in 9mm too. Both sweet shooters, but the .40 is my knock around piece, first choice. The Mark II bull barrel .22 is sweet!
 
Dude, never post serial numbers for guns, some left wing nut job will report them as stolen, and then where will you be?

Mine are all properly registered through the state program and I have the required paperwork but I will keep that in mind. Thanks.

Suspect in custody after shooting on Washington Middle School property

That's a poor blanket statement, and every individual who gets shot is automatically a "victim", even if They've terrorized, bullied and beaten the shooter. There isn't anything new about it either, I have newspapers older than I am, with the same stories. Today, one in some podunk town is instant worldwide news, thanks to technology. The attitude that the collective is doing something wrong in this country to cause these should be directed at the teaching a lack of respect for life, and fear of consequences beyond this world....

The country I live in has laws about requiring registration.

The paperwork on the AR15 I just bought online from Rural King was free because I had it sent to a Rural King store. A 50 minute (app) background check was a 2.00 fee. Pennsylvania was always great about doing paperwork and even private sales require it. Three different people signed off on my serial number before I got my gun and that was just at the store. Then we receive copies. Then if requested most shops will give you a form that you can list all of your guns, calibers, make and model, and serial numbers for your safe keeping. From what I heard the gun shows used to be a little sloppy but I’m sure those are even stricter now.

Biden did mention that all of the gun violence in this country is because of sloppy gun stores not doing background checks. He is going to boost up the ATF to shut down this activity to make us safer and to eliminate all of the shootings going on in places like Chicago and Pittsburgh, Maryland, DC etc etc.
I can't wait. to feel safer, can you?
