If I were fighting four intruders, I would want a 30 round magazine.

In 2000 I lived on that block. It was modern middle income suburbia. By 2005 the gangs ruled it.

Glad I left when I did.

I love these stories about “hostile work places”.

I am going to reserve judgement until we know more. The immediate instinct is to show this as yet another example of someone with a gun defending his/her family.

But for all we know this was one gang member or dope dealer using a street gun against other gang members or dope dealers.

This is an example of the need for high capacity magazines. Three got away.

I would say that this illustrates that one must be prepared to defend one’s family all the time and at anytime.

To let one’s guard down even for a minute on this Monday morning in particular could have resulted in disaster.

I think this shows that a loaded gun in the presence of a baby saved that baby and its family.

Had it been unloaded and locked in a safe, it would have not even been there.

No attempt should be made to disarm this country.

None.

To those people who choose to commit evil crimes with the tool of freedom, see to it that they get justice, and only them.

Which its why my Glock has 15 hollow points in it, another mag close by, and the AR has 30 hollow points in it. To hell with magazine capacity limits when you might be facing multiple intruders...

This is exactly what the left wants to take away from us. They want the criminal to waltz right in and take what is “rightfully” his from the “oppressors.”

THANK YOU. My co-workers asked me last week why I need 20 and 30 round clips and I said "What if I am attacked my three or four guys?" and they were all like "If you need 30 shots for four guys you suck at shooting." and I was like "They're not gonna walk right out in the open and let me shoot 'em." Morons.

Dam right. Or Fifteen for a handgun.

Ten rounds in any firearm makes it a very iffy situation against four thugs.

The intruders were met with armed resistance.

As it should be.
