We are seemingly in the clear. He moved offshore into the Atlantic around St. Augustine and it's looking like he's going to pass us by. We're getting wind gusts and some light rain at my house.

I’ve never found a 9mm I liked. I prefer my Springfield Armory XD .45 with 13 round magazine. Perfectly balanced, weight evenly distributed, very accurate. I have no intent to kill anyone and THATS specifically why I’d want something that is accurate without anything that could cause the shot to be off. I’ve even tried the 9 in the XD, not the same balance of weight. It’s a little too muzzle heavy by a bit.
If that’s trivial enough to not care… that’s going to remain a personal decision, not the standpoint of the rest of us.
The low death statistic is only because there’s about 10,500 robberies a year…which let’s face it could be a life or death situation every time for that home owner.

10,500 robberies a year in a country with almost 350,000,000 people. Not bad although a lot of robberies without injuries are not reported.BobCobbMagob wrote: ↑Sat Oct 01, 2022 10:43 amIt’s about 100 people a year that die in home invasion robberies.

In terms of a personal preference you have to look at everything. 100 people killed each year in home invasions but about 400 people are accidentally killed in the home each year by having guns in the home. Mostly children. Not to mention domestic violence in the home.
People have been conned into thinking they will safe if only they had a gun. Just not true.

I have never thought that. I just want my guns. They're stored properly. They aren't hurting anyone. That's all.Lemons wrote: ↑Sat Oct 01, 2022 10:50 pm10,500 robberies a year in a country with almost 350,000,000 people.

You go for the stop, not necessarily "the kill". Threat neutralization is the objective. Especially if someone's amped up a .32 might not have the stopping power, which is where the pissing off comes from. It'd have to be a very well placed round to stop an advancing threat with a small caliber. It doesn't penetrate enough to hit internal organs because there's not a lot of power.Lemons wrote: ↑Thu Sep 29, 2022 5:09 pmSo go for the kill?

Where on earth do you get that home invaders always turn out to be family or acquaintances? What? You actually made me chuckle with that.
Maybe you should poll the "hysterical" people who have the privilege of having ARMED security protecting them while they screech about taking away everyone else's protection. They'd probably be a good source of expressing to you WHY weapons are necessary.
No cash bail, useless states attorneys who don't prosecute, and police being hamstrung and stopped from performing their jobs correctly are why "regular people" think they need a deadly form of protection.

My CC instructor even laughed at me about my .32 and just pissing off who I was aiming at. Everyone mocks my poor little mouse gun! I got that for concealed carry specifically because I didn't want to have to worry about what was behind my target if I ever did need to draw.
