PROS AND CONS OF USING BIRDSHOT FOR SELF DEFENSE I received an email from a reader of this site, telling me about the Taurus Judge, which is a revolver that can fire either the .45 Long Colt, or a .410 shotgun shell (often loaded with birdshot). By chance I happen to have handled a Taurus Judge right before I read that email. Below is is the email I received, along with my thoughts on the use of birdshot for home and automotive defense. SHOTGUN SHOT SIZE INFORMATION I see quite a few visitors searching for information on the size of shot in the various shotgun shells, such as 00 buck, #1 buck, #4 bird, etc., and the number of pellets in a one ounce 12 Gauge shell This article provides that information for lead shot.FREEDOM OF SPEECH
In a nutshell, the 1st Amendment means that federal, state, and local governments are prohibited from preventing or punishing speech. There is nuance to that in that some speech that is criminal can be prohibited and punished. One classic example is how falsely yelling “fire” in a crowded venue so as to incite a dangerous panic is acrime.

SMITH & WESSON MODEL 610 REVOLVER (10MM AND .40 S&W) REVIEW Below is my review of the Smith and Wesson Model 610 revolver, which is chambered for two cartridges traditionally reserved for semi-automatic pistols: 10mm Auto and .40 S&W. It is a firearm that I’ve wanted to own for quite a while, and just recently was able to find and buy. Buy the Smith & Wesson Model 610 Online CORBON DPX (SELF DEFENSE AMMUNITION) REVIEW Corbon DPX is the most expensive pistol ammo I’ve ever used. Prices seem to fluctuate based upon supply and demand, but I would say an average price in 2009 was around $35 for a box of 20 rounds. That is nearly twice the cost of some less expensive lead-based hollow point bullets, and many times the cost of cheap full metal jacket ammo. THE TRUTH ABOUT HOLLOW POINT BULLETS Generally speaking, hollow point bullets are more humane when hunting. Just as a hollow point bullet will have a better chance of quickly stopping an attacker when used in self defense, a hollow point bullet will have a better chance of quickly stopping the hunter’s target. A hollow point bullet is more likely to strike a deer or other animal SMARTCARRY CONCEALED CARRY HOLSTER REVIEW The SmartCarry is a rather unique lower abdomen holster, designed for concealed carry. It places the handgun above the user’s pelvis, and has Velcro straps that wrap around the user’s hips. There is a smaller pouch, next to the main pouch, in which a spare magazine can be carried. SmartCarry holsters are made in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. ARMED CIVILIANS SAVING COPS' LIVES Armed Civilians Saving Cops’ Lives. A visitor to this website emailed me a link to a great article on policemag.com . The article discusses cases where armed citizens have saved the lives of police officers: Travis Neel, who, having witnessed the shooting of a Harris County deputy sheriff, pulled his own gun and fired, driving thedeputy’s

Porting also results in a more visible flash when the shotgun is fired. Both are the result of having the hot gases from the combustion of gun power exit the barrel through the port holes, rather than through the muzzle.

On one side is the idea that a lighter weight but faster moving bullet is superior, while others contend that a slower moving but heaver bullet is the better option.GUN WAITING PERIODS
The flaws in the “background check” period argument Another justification given for waiting periods is that time is needed to run background checks, in order to prevent convicted felons and other prohibited people from buying a gun. This argument also has logicalflaws.

The fact is that law abiding gun owners are the polar opposite of criminals – and are a criminal’s worst nightmare.The comparison chart below highlights the profound differences which tend to exist between law abiding gun owners (such as this author) and CONCRETE STEPS TO FIX THE PROBLEM OF POLICE BRUTALITY IN A close second in the list of ways to fix policing is something that we can all do, using our cell phones: record the police. It was 17 year old who recorded the video of George Floyd being murdered, and in doing so that brave young person exposed a killing PROS AND CONS OF USING BIRDSHOT FOR SELF DEFENSE I received an email from a reader of this site, telling me about the Taurus Judge, which is a revolver that can fire either the .45 Long Colt, or a .410 shotgun shell (often loaded with birdshot). By chance I happen to have handled a Taurus Judge right before I read that email. Below is is the email I received, along with my thoughts on the use of birdshot for home and automotive defense. REMINGTON 870 XCS MARINE MAGNUM REVIEW The cylinder bore barrel is 18″ long. The Remington 870 XCS Marine Magnum is a high quality firearm, and it is clear that Remington put plenty of care into its construction. Unlike some of the 870 Express shotguns which have a plastic safety, the 870 XCS Marine Magnum has a durable metal safety. The TriNyte corrosion resistant coating is THE EFFECTS OF PORTING A SHOTGUN BARREL Porting increases the amount of noise heard by the shooter and those standing next to the shooter. Porting also results in a more visible flash when the shotgun is fired. Both are the result of having the hot gases from the combustion of gun power exit the barrel through the port holes, rather than through the muzzle. CORBON DPX (SELF DEFENSE AMMUNITION) REVIEW Corbon DPX is the most expensive pistol ammo I’ve ever used. Prices seem to fluctuate based upon supply and demand, but I would say an average price in 2009 was around $35 for a box of 20 rounds. That is nearly twice the cost of some less expensive lead-based hollow point bullets, and many times the cost of cheap full metal jacket ammo.GUNS 101: SHOTGUNS
Basics. Shotguns are a versatile type of firearm that can be used for many purposes including self defense, hunting, and target shooting. The shotgun’s claim to fame is its ability to shoot multiple projectiles, rather than a single bullet, increasing the probability of a hit. Also, unlike rifles and handguns, shotguns generally do nothave a
GUNS 101: BARREL LENGTH As a general rule, hunting and target shooting guns will have longer barrels, while self defense guns will have shorter barrels. The reason that self defense guns give up barrel length is to make the gun more suitable for self defense in other ways. A shorter barrel on a self defense gun makes it easier to maneuver the gun through the hallways of home during a home defense scenario, and harder 5 REASONS TO SUPPORT GUN RIGHTS AND OPPOSE GUN CONTROL 5 Reasons to Support Gun Rights and Oppose Gun Control. Below is a non-exhaustive list of reasons why I support gun rights and oppose gun control: 1. Criminals who want a gun will get them, even if there are strict gun control laws. Only the law abiding, future crime victims, will obey the ban. Even in countries that have a near total ban on SHOTGUN SHOT SIZE INFORMATION I see quite a few visitors searching for information on the size of shot in the various shotgun shells, such as 00 buck, #1 buck, #4 bird, etc., and the number of pellets in a one ounce 12 Gauge shell This article provides that information for lead shot. GLOCK 22 (CHAMBERED FOR .40 S&W) REVIEW kB! (Kaboom) Some people have reported a “kB!” with their Glocks chambered for calibers larger than 9mm, such as .40 S&W or .45 ACP. What is a kB! ? It is a shortened form of “kaBOOM!”, which refers to when a Glock experiences a sudden and catastrophic failure in the cartridge casing’s wall, causing the hot gases to escape from thechamber.
MSAR STG-556 (BULLPUP RIFLE) REVIEW Below is my review of the Microtech Small Arms Research (MSAR) STG-556: Basics. The first (rather obvious) thing to note is that the MSAR STG-556 is bullpup, meaning that the action and magazine are located behind the trigger. Compared to traditional rifles, which place the action and magazine in front of the trigger, a bullpup is able to make use of what would otherwise be wasted THE PROPER AMMUNITION FOR HOME DEFENSE Owners of shotguns have three basic choices when it comes to ammunition: Buckshot, Birdshot, and Slugs. Of these three, I would recommend buckshot; in particular 00 buckshot. Buckshot refers to large diameter metal spheres, loaded into a shotgun shell. Buckshot is generally the best choice for home defense, in particular 00(“double ought
BULLET WEIGHT VS. VELOCITY A rather contentious issue in the area of self defense is that of proper bullet weight/velocity – I would guess that this is second only to the “which caliber” or “which gun” question. On one side is the idea that a lighter weight but faster moving bullet is superior, while others contend that a slower moving but heaver bullet is the better option. SMARTCARRY CONCEALED CARRY HOLSTER REVIEW The SmartCarry is a rather unique lower abdomen holster, designed for concealed carry. It places the handgun above the user’s pelvis, and has Velcro straps that wrap around the user’s hips. There is a smaller pouch, next to the main pouch, in which a spare magazine can be carried. SmartCarry holsters are made in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. WOMAN SUES POLICE FOR FAILING TO PROTECT HER The potential to change the law and hold the police responsible for a failure to protect a citizen In 2004, Vernetta sued the town of Jonesville, NC and its police department for negligence in failing to enforce the protective order against Richard Ellerbee.

THE PROPER AMMUNITION FOR HOME DEFENSE Handgun Ammunition for Home Defense Handgun users can choose between hollow point and other expanding bullets, and non expanding full metal jacket bullets. Hollow point bullets are recommended because they are more likely to stop an attacker, and less likely to over penetrate and injure an innocent bystander. BULLET WEIGHT VS. VELOCITY A rather contentious issue in the area of self defense is that of proper bullet weight/velocity – I would guess that this is second only to the “which caliber” or “which gun” question.

LEARNABOUTGUNS.COM – HOME Welcome to LearnAboutGuns.com. This web site is dedicated to preserving the individual right of law abiding citizens to possess firearms for self defenseas well as sporting
purposes. I created this site after recognizing the growing threat to our right to keep and bear arms, and hope to both dispel the mythssurrounding guns
and “gun crime
,”
as well as to provide useful information to those who already support firearms rights. I also provide examples of armed self defense fromthe news ,
although those make up just a tiny percentage of the millions of such self-defense gun uses that occur each year.
I also hope to persuade those who don’t currently support gun rights, through the use of polite and well-reasoned arguments, including information about why I have a gun. I
firmly believe that polite debate, which focuses on the issues andfacts
rather than on personal attacks and hyperbole,
is what we as a society need when it comes to important issues such asgun rights.
Information that may be helpful to people who are new to guns is available here too. This includes information on selecting a firearm for home defense,
selecting the ammunition for home defense,
firearms maintenance,
safe and responsible gun storage,
reviews of various guns and accessories,
etc. While I do not provide legal advice on this website or via email, I do, from time to time, discuss my thoughts on gun-related legal events from the news. I also have taken a few moments to address myths about gun stores andtheir customers
for those in my demographic(African American).
Another goal of this website is to encourage my fellow firearms rights supporters to do their part to protect gun rights. This includesjoining the NRA ,
the ISRA , and taking further action to help safeguard and expand our gun rights. Without the involvement of gun owners in the political process, the anti gun groups will succeed at taking away our gun rights. Those who have a gun related question that is not already addressed by this site are encouraged to contact me,
and I will likely be willing to write an article addressing the question (_although I must respectfully decline to offer legal advice_).
I’ve tried to write articles addressing many of the questions I can think of, however I’m certain there are many areas I have yet to address. Since the goal of this site is to “learn about guns, feelfree to ask away.

contains the
books and DVDs which I recommend. Finally, don’t forget to read the disclaimer & privacy policy and copyright notice.
