In today's market, the .38 spl is cheaper, easier to find, and has 100+ grains on the heaviest .22s, I just have a soft spot for magnum rimfires.

what's the wall penetration potential of a heavy .38 spl ? the only entry and exits of my home face south .. .and that's the only path way to other homes ... guestamet of maybe 60 to 70yds give or take ... so miss and a window and 60+ yds ... all this is why I've been looking at Taurus Judge .. .410 pellets don't have the same potential of reaching that far ... and of course I realize that practice and hit what I'm aiming at will be the same comment from some that I've always gotten after saying that

If you want hitting power and you're indoors but don't want to kill the neighbors, .410 is a great idea..... but you might want more magazine capacity. Saiga 12ga a little bigger than 410 but nice and small for indoors use Saiga 410 w/ 30 rd drum magazine dead nuts reliable AK action, in shotgun form!

that should cost a bit more than a Judge ...

If you're worried about over-penetration get Glaser safety slugs:

Well, not a Saiga 12 but I do have a Mossberg 500 that is my primary defensive weapon,

that is loaded with alternating rounds of 00 Buck and #2 goose loads, for maximum damage at close range with lower risk of going through several walls if they miss.

I figure if 10 rounds of 12ga don't do the trick, there are 16 rounds of 9mm Black Talons behind that. If they get through that and the 2 pitbulls, they deserve whatever they can get away with. LOL

Penetration

00 > 9mm > .556 Nato

Box O truth

My car is notorious. SUCCESS!

For home defense we keep one of these around. It's about triple its original purchase price in mods/accessories, but it's reliable as gravity, and SWMBO wields it confidently loaded with these:

never owned a hand gun ... so lots of practice would be in order ... which would be lots of $$ ... which is the reason for the shotgun preference ... even in a handgun (the Judge)

Or wherever, really

Thats cool. They came 4x4 from the factory- PYP had them consistently on the yard for a year or so 2-3 years ago. I looked at all kinds of rigs with intention of pulling parts for a re-orientation of my Sidekick to purely onroad duties (needed to regear taller, and have an AWD function.) Nothing appealing in the way of parts to pull out of them- I think it was Dana 30 front, 7.5 rear? or even lighter duty- but if you are just on muddy rocky roads to camp or do outdoor stuff, might not be bad. They are pretty much gone off the road, though. Not long before it's hard to get service parts. Ps. yeah yeah, a pic... ahh, look at it, that pic...

I worked at a Ford dealer for a while in 1995. Nothing got crappier faster than an Aerostar. Seriously, they reached shagged out status in about three months.

I also helped deliver one to Alert, up in the Arctic. By plane, because that's how you get to Alert. I still feel guilty about that. I've got pics of it being offloaded, but not online.

Instead of a picture, I shall offer a link to the last time I posted that in this thread, which I discovered when trying to find a picture of a First Air cargo plane. Behold, page 1812 of the Hotlink Thread from March 2013.

Anyone seen Prometheus? I think I want to see it.

That is some crazy genius, as long as it doesn't rattle loose. If the trailer ever drops off the ball, it pulls the pin. When you see the trailer come unglued you just stand on the gas. A quick wiggle of the steering wheel will probably flick the draw bar out and you can continue happily on your way, claiming no knowledge of he massive pile up behind you with no incriminating evidence. As long as your trailer was unregistered or borrowed.

I'll never forget dancing around the living room with my 2 year old daughter, Space Oddity blasting on the turntable.

If you're a fan of Alien (and some of the sequels) I don't think you'd enjoy it. I love Alien and I tried really hard to like Prometheus...but I couldn't.
