Seriously though, I'm big on firearms and firearm safety b/c alot of people are misinformed and get themselves in trouble. If you honestly feel that you need a firearm, you need to check your local laws as to what is legal, if you can carry, the type of ammo you can carry (JHP - jacketed hollow points are illegal in some states), and what the 'castle' rules are. Castle rules are basically those that dictate what you can and can't do if someone enters your home. In my beautiful state of Texas, someone enters your arm and you open fire. In the commie state of New Jersey, you have what's called the 'duty of retreat' which means you must make every attempt to avoid the situation and only as a last resort can you fire your weapon. Even then, someone you shoot can come back and sue you in civil court. So please, get educated before you go packing heat because it'll save you a world of legal fees!!!!
