Because he's scared (for some reason)

When I first received my CCW in Florida, I carried for around 3 months a LR .22, a ladies gun as my girlfriend put it
Upgraded it to a snub nose .357 and Ive found .357 is a good balance between power, kick, and stopping power
have a .44 on my desk as well, but never been a fan of how hard it hits
I also like revolvers but they're kinda unpractical in a real life situation
You're limited to 8 rounds at the most, when you can get a gun with same or better firepower with 15 rounds
My beauts, as its dark and I dont feel like turning on a light so here is an old pic
Good enough for home defense, useful enough to leave in the open
Moved out of Florida a while back so need a new permit to carry, but if I carry again I will probably go back to my Colt 1911
I love the Colt, that weight feels great, the slide protector I had put on is great for rapid fire
I mostly choose my guns by manufacturer, caliber and capacity, considering I'm yet to apply for a CCW the size it's still not that relevant rn
tbh given most interactions with people who have ill intent the capacity doesnt mean much if you land a couple shots
You know this is going to sound maybe a bit bitchy, but when I got my CCW in Florida I really hated the course
You will be arrested, you must surrender, you must accept being detained, you are the criminal
that kind of mindset
It's not about landing shots, it's about number of threats and margin or error
Yeah thats a valid point, the general amount of people is 1, but Ive seen plenty of home invasion videos where more than 3 come in
Im a big fan of my repeater rifle
.45
Classy rifle
I take some 12 rounds as my minimum
So, 3 people, 4 shots for each, can miss 2
Depending on your aim you won't hit 3 people twice with only 6 bullets
I'm particularly fan of polymer striker fired pistols, they're overall reliable and easy to handle
Can't own rifles so idk except that I'll probably want a 5.56 AR-15 platform
For home defense I believe the best option for a full sized firearm is a .45, preferably with a flashlight or laser pointer, considering you can keep it by your bedside, so holstering it won't be a factor
The less you need to care about reloading in a stressful situation, the better

Understandable, my bedside is my .357 S&W, no flashlight, no laser
I figure where I live now if anymore than 3 people break in Im dead

Well I'm not giving them that chance lol
I have some guns in the other room stored away, I need to clean them though and check them before I decide to unpack since moving
I am saddened as I sold many of my valuable firearms and due to some government regulations I was forced to sell off my bump stocks
Forced to? I just lost mine in a boating accident
<a:communism:586632237638877204>
lol
I sold my bump stocks for 3x what I paid
it was before the ban was put through so technically legal
not my problem with whatever was done with them
government caused that problem
