My dad recently gave me his .357 as a birthday present. I keep and loaded in my closet but I've never fired it yet and would be lying if I said I wasn't a little afraid of it.

I would honestly suggest that you have your father take you to the range and you get familiar with it. Being uncomfortable/afraid of a firearm is one of the leading issues behind gun-owner accidents.
This. If you're worried about the recoil, start off with .38 special rounds.

I have a combat knife, a machete, and a katana all in close range of my bed and a Saiga 7.62x39 rifle under my bed. My dad has a .40 handgun.

Dear tomorrow, Find some sensibility, Respond to emotion.
Dear Politician, Define sagacity,
All chances of survival are beginning to diminish.
Comedy is no excuse for our own blasphemies.
Mass media, Mass pessimism, Mass Denial.
My television tells me to panic, but I don't think I'll listen.
The apathetic force us to persevere, with their backwards priorities.

I'd be more scared of Mrs. False Reality than you...

Also, I can neither confirm or deny my possession of weapons for home defense. Though I suggest you not break into my house to try and find out.

9mm Handgun, 12ga shotgun. Also have a .22, but that's for medium-long range shooting.

My roomate is better armed than I though.

My dad keeps a loaded .357, and I have many swords, and know how to use them. Also, knives.


I find that the higher calibers of pistols such as .357 and .44 magnum are much easier to shoot because the higher weight of the gun keeps it stable and abosorbs most of the recoil. Plus it doesnt hurt your wrist as much.

Surprisingly, .22 rifles have the highest percentage of one shot stopping power.

Stupid ass washing machine...

A hammer, under my bed.

That's all I need. All the doors on the bottom floor of my house have bolt-locks on the outside of the doors, which I secure every time I go out for an extended period of time and each night before bed.

I feel safe.

IDK about you, but in a SD incident, I'd sooner reach for my 9mm than its long barreled brethren.

I own a nice little Glock and an AR-15.
The AR isn't specifically for defense, I just take it down to the gun range every now and then.

I have a machete I guess. I use it to cut my pizza.

I don't use guns I use knifes,forks,matches and gasoline,baseball bats,baseballs, metal tools, hammers etc...and have a skill to scavenge every weapon and thing I need to survive....

I don't always ban people but when I do I laugh uncontrollably...that's if I was a Forum Ninja.

Truth is a matter of perception.

The Button

I keep a Ruger Bearcat in my closet but it's unloaded, I hope I never have to use it though. I also have a .357, .380, a 12-guage, and a .410 shotgun in another room. All of them are unloaded but the bullets are close enough so I can get to them quickly.

  • 12.14.2012 12:29 PM PDT

If I know somebody has a gun., I will usually text or call telling them I'm coming. I don't want any surprises.

I live outside of town, in the country where 911 will fail help prevent bad things from happening. I gotta protect myself from animals, lawyers, criminals, etc...
