What is your Main Home defense gun?
« on: May 06, 2010, 11:45:09 AM »
  Everyone here is a Second Amendment supporter and also have the ability to appreciate fine firearms and quality. I am  curious as to what we all have as our Main goto firearms for home defense. I am sure it is quite varied. Please post pics if you can. Love Gun Porn !! This should be interesting as I expect everything from Shotguns to pups to be on the list. My main go to gun is my Nighthawk Predator, It is the 3rd Predator made by Nighthawk. Was built by Ron Philips alone. (He was Nighthawks #1 Smith and also built Supergrades for Wilson before he went to nighthawk) These are pics of it dressed for Self defense.  On weekends she knocks down steel and punches paper.

Very nice on the Nighthawk, Chief.  My .45 ACP gets some duty, but mostly the Ruger Alaskan.

Packs quite a whallop with 300 gr. 454's; or if you want to calm it down, shoots .45 LC's.

Looks like a handful! (Of course that is relative, we do have Rohrbaughs !) :)

 I am now looking for a Commander sized 1911 w/Bobtail.... I am telling myself that will be all the guns I buy :)....  I still have a couple half finshed AR's in my safe.
