    Also, when clearing your house, you need to think about what the intruder may be looking for....He may be looking for someones head to poke from around a corner. Get low. This pic was taken, as I was practicing not being seen. The plate on the colum is about 4 feet off the ground

    ..and rounds have a tendacy to skip off and along side drywall about 6 inches. Not the best position for defense. IMO

    The things required to pull bitches
    Well theres a sale at Big 5 for a mossberg 500. Now I'm debating between the 500 or a winchester 1300. The win is used an has about 100 rounds through it, and its 230. Mossy is 280 new.

    so true

    buy dummy rounds

    when youre at the range or whatnot...mix them into your magazines

    practice clearing FTF/FTE etc

    practice changing mags quickly when your gun goes dry



    also true

    I did it again. Got tired of paying truck payments and gas and traded in for a 2015 Honda Accord Sport since I enjoyed my 2013 Sport so much.
    Other.

    Remington 870.

    And a Glock 19 or Glock 17, whichever you shoot better.

    Myself, I use a 10.5" AR with a suppressor on the end (to better protect my hearing, my dear).

    Its OAL is still slightly shorter than a standard 16" AR so it's all good.

    And FWIW, if I suspect an intruder is in my place, I would barricade myself in my room and call the police. If you have children in another part of the house I definietly understand the need to go and get them, but only in that situation.

    Hunker down and call 911.
