? Maybe, deaths of home invadors. I know one thing, When my wife hears a sound downstairs and sends me to check it out, I feel much more comfortable that I have a gun in my hand. I actualy get to sleep at night knowing that I can retrieve and engage in less than 4 seconds. If I did not have that gun what would I do? Call the police every other night? Lie awake for hours woried that someone is going to come in and I would be helpless? Once you have had the experience of home invasion you would understand. No Gun = No Sleep. I choose sleep. ===== _________________________________________________ Jan William Coffey _________________________________________________ __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
