But Burton was 25 or so METRES away
It would still have smarted a bit getting hit by a load of no.4's at that range though.
U/O's - only two shots, too slow to load and you can't fire it in mid reload like an auto or pump.
But ideal for ducks and trap-shooting.

" Life is not a rehearsal, it's as happy or miserable as you want to make it"
Which is exactly what I use it for......and exactly why it would've had to have been six inches away to acheive my desired effect on that twat!
Something I would've had no hestitation in doing....I pity you guys in the force when your hands are tied.....like....wouldn't it have been a 'pity' if the officers involved accidently had their glocks discharge while that sausage was rolling round on the ground......but so not worth the trouble they'd end up in....tis a sad world....
Terrence Thompson comes to mind...a much better outcome all round. Would seem that only cop-killers get treated correctly.
Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?
Glock don't sell the model 18 to civilians, AFAIK. For that matter, I'd rather have an MP5.
Mrs Fish just brought to my attention the fact that this discussion is being mirrored over at vorb.co.nz. Scary times for mountainbikers; makes the practice of 'carrying' on forest rides seem a little less crazy, doesn't it?
My Chinook always travels in a jersey pocket on the pushie, both MTB and road. You just never know.
Respect, by the way, for walloping that guy with the cymbal stand. I hope it didn't get scratched or bent.

I was shit scared and lashed out with the nearest thing to hand. Early '90s Pearl extendable boom stands were made of steel and the boom counter balance was a lump of painted iron.
If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

Nup, I don't think I'd like to be on the wrong end of a five-foot steel-and-iron mace with your weight behind it. Nicely done.
If you don't mind sharing, I'd be very interested to hear a bit more about that incident. What time of day or night did it happen? What were the circumstances? Who else was in the house? What was the eventual outcome? Did your approach to personal security change as a result of it?

and now we are supposed to feel sorry for him http://www.nzherald.co.nz/section/1/...ectid=10418164
ROFL. Jesus motherfucking Christ. The system failed him, did it? I suppose someone had to say that at some point.
The only thing proven by Burton's release and subsequent rampage is that there really is such a thing as 'evil'. I haven't seen the slightest suggestion that he was in any way mentally impaired.

We got cleaned out while we were both at work. Everything went. They didn't get what they wanted because Heather was wearing it to work - her Nursing medal. They wanted it to be able to access a Hospital Pharmacy. The only thing we had left was cutlery, plates, my drum kit, and the large furniture items, most of our clothes were strewn through the house. Most everything else went, though I did recover some CDs from a 2nd hand book shop. Who got done for receiving. They hadn't even tried to remove name and address from inside the covers. I then realised I was telegraphing the fact that I had CDs and books by putting name and address in them.
The landlord put up bars on the windows that ran down the blind alley up the back of the house.
They came back a month later and stole the stereo out of the car. Then they came back the next week, the bars thwarted them and they tried to come in through the front door. I got a good look and rang 111. No one available. The dude tried to break the lock open with a jimmy bar and then came into the house. I was home with Heather and fight or flight took over, and I launched myself at the dude. He was fekking enormous. He dropped the jimmy bar and ran off when the stand connected on a back swing and the fingerprints got him convicted of all three events. No mention was ever made of my self-defence. The prints from the first burglary and the car break in matched the the third event.
He'd been following Heather to and from work, I think.
We moved out within a month of the last one.
My attitude hasn't changed. You do what you can, but I don't sleep with a baseball bat next to the bed or anything.
What has changed is that we make sure we leave curtains open when we go away, and put a light in the garage on a timer, and get a mate to patrol the lawn for empty beer bottles and to pick up the mail. We also try to avoid routine in anything that involves leaving the house.
