I always thought if you're going someplace where five or six rounds aren't enough, then maybe you should reconsider going there.

Well, you might as well have more. In case of zombified velociraptors or some other supernatural terror decides that today is the day that it wants to mess with you, you know

I've read stories of home invasions and encounters on the street where there are more than one attacker, sometimes up to 4. A revolver can only do so much in those situation and just because you shoot one guy down doesn't always make the others run away scared.

Home invasions are another thing altogether. Anything goes then. I have a Remington 870 and a fire axe ready for that. But I can't really hide either down my pants for carry.

Tell anyone who asks that you're just really happy to see them?

Yeah, to be fair, if there's a home invasion happening, I'd grab my rifle as well but that's a different situation. What about if you attacked by a gang? I've read about it happening.

Yeah, this is exactly why I keep my SKS-M with a 30-rounder ready to go

I saw the picture of your SKS earlier. Is the detachable magazine mod permanent? I thought about doing that to my SKS, but that'd make it illegal to own in NJ, and I'd like keep the option of moving back one day.

Mod? It came straight from Norinco with the ability to take AK mags


I'm like the least likely person ever to mod my guns

Oh, I didn't know such a thing existed.
