From: "nick royall", [EMAIL PROTECTED] Massad Ayood has changed his tune on the best gun for home defence over the last 20 years, he used to propose that a shotgun with the first shot of very fine pellets to cause maximum mess with minimal damage followed by a second shot of buckshot in case the perpetrator did not get the message. However, he also said that any firearm was worth having if you practised with it, ie a well placed hit with a .22 was better than a miss with a .44 mag. The military has to be called out by the Lord Lieutenant of the County before they can be involved in putting down riots in Trumptonshire. This was last done in 1926 in Wales because the local police refused to obey their superiors and beat up the striking miners and dockers. The navy were sent in but the ships crew also refused to do as they were ordered so the Captain confined them to their quarters and he got charged with mutiny and sacked. He was the veteran rights campaigner Ludovic Kennedy's father and was later killed in action attacking the Japanese fleet in the Rawalpindi, an armed merchantman. Nick Why me? -- By some bizarre coincidence Mas has an article in the current copy of American Handgunner about the Illinois State Police. ISP were the first police agency in the US to mandate semi-automatic pistols back in the mid-sixties. They started off with 9mm FMJ, went to 100gr JSP, and then to the Winchester +P+ 115gr JHP and have recently adopted .40 calibre. As ISP have more police involved shootings every year than all the police forces in Great Britain put together, I think there is an important lesson to learn here, i.e. JHPs are the best choice!!!
