What's your "Go To" HD firearm?

To unbrkn: is Detroit still considered part of the US? The pictures that have been showing on TV and in the newspapers about Detroit make it look like post WWII in the cities of Germany, plus you have the added attraction of a high crime rate. I think if I lived there I would be doing my best to find a way to move out.

Just got a new one! Used to be a Model 10 in there, but a member here just traded me a Speed Six with tritium front sight, a perfect fit. In a case chained to the table, gets unlocked when I'm in the room.

Old Ithaca 37 pump 12 gauge with Remington Express 00bk

Whatever I'm carrying that day goes on the nightstand that night.

Probably been done before, but I'll ask again anyway.

No time to open the safe and break out the SAW (or AT-4), no time to find the one (maybe) buried in the couch, no time for anything but the one you keep out just in case.

For me, it's a Glock 22 with night sights and a SureFire light.
Not fancy, not really my best choice for those unannounced guest, but it'll work till I can fight my way to a rifle.

Benelli M1 Super 90 12 ga with 00 Buck.

Me too, but it's to back up the Benelli.

I dial 1911

 

[Badkarma 1]

Remington Police Magnum, followed by a SIG P226 with a 20rd. mag full of 147gr. HST. And that's just to get the dance started. Dale

 

[Ol'Pappy]

4 inch model 10, hidden in bedroom. Goes into night stand each night, along with current ccw gun, currently a bobbed hammer 2inch model 36. Loaded 20 gauge in safe, if time permits.

This is my Gock 21. It's a full size .45 auto. For PD I load with either 230gr Speer Gold Dot or 230gr Hornady Critical Defense. It sleeps on my night table when at home and rides with me in the console of my F-150 on road trips. I generally carry it's little brother, my G36 (compact .45) IWB, OWB or shoulder depending upon weather and situation.

 

[Aaron Lariscy]

Model 19-5 4" on the night stand with a Stoeger M2000 in the window sill behind the curtains. As has been said here already I also have a 442 stashed away in the bathroom because nothing would be worse than someone breaking in while I was in the shower.

 

[Clovishound]

A Ruger SR9c. It is what I train to carry, so I figure that is the best weapon for me to pick up for defense.

I keep some .38 spl hollow points handy in case I need my model 10 in a pinch.

 

[Faulkner]

I keep my .40 cal's handy.

 

[Steely Dan]

This is my everyday carry and SHTF late night response system.

Ruger LCR .357 Magnum with Winchester PDX1 Defender 125 grain JHP

Note: this is not my gun but looks just like my gun. I don't have a way to set up my own pictures yet.

Might have a bit of over penetration though............

There are few things in life that cannot be fully resolved with artillery.

For us it would really depend on what part of the house we're in. If you are talking a bump in the night my go-to is a Hi Point 9mm carbine and my wifes is a S&W 6906. Being in other parts of the house when the incident happens may result in grabbing a 38 Special, 380, 40 S&W or 22 mag rifle. We're not really paranoid, it just kind of sounds that way.

Nice,same here with the 995TS Carbine!4 10 round magazines loaded with Hornady Critical Defense.I have a few of the ProMag 15 rd magazines,but I don't really rely much on them for home defense.We also have a security system with a warning sign outside as a deterrent.The Hi-Point Carbines do get a bad rap among some gun communities ,but mine has worked flawless and eats up every kind of 9mm I have fed it.

That's the plan, but you can move out of the city but the city can also move. More "Detroit Crime" actually happens in the Metro areas(since people who live outside of the city actually report crimes.)
