I think about it often, if my wife found me. Finding such things are so much worse than what we think.
I think about her reaction, what it would be, to realize so suddenly that her husband is gone. Forever. So quickly, with no closure, ever. And this is something that has kept me going.
I am so sorry to hear of your family. It never gets better, I hope you are doing well.
My heart goes out to you. That’s a really tough but ultimately good decision to put as much distance between you and a firearm. We need you, my friend.
Firearms aren’t for everyone which is where there are many decent alternatives.
Personally, I am a fan of home pepper gel spray. Unlike other things (like a pepper pistol, or taser, or knife), you can empty the canister on the offending person and if they manage to wrestle it from you somehow, it will be empty and they can’t do anything to you with it.
Thank you very kindly. It is a battle to be sure, but a battle I am winning.
Maybe I can go duel pistol mode LOL. Launcher in one hand and pepper jell in the other!
Nah in all seriousness I wonder if the best thing would be is to pelt the door with the pepper balls and then spray with gel if they break the door down. We got meth heads squatting next to us and it is definitely a little scary. I know people tweaking can withstand a lot, but at least if they can’t see it would give us time to do what we need to do.
My wife drew the spray when our dog was getting mauled by a stray pit. I never have.
I’ve drawn my pistol once, no shots needed to be fired, but the other party immediately ceased hostility.
Is this a genuine question or bait?
Yes, I was wondering how often it justfied the hassle of carrying it around. I find pocket knives to be barely worth it.
Why assume bait on a normal question?
Where do you live that you need such defenses anyway?
I’m bipolar, and almost altf4’d myself before I sold my pistol. So I refuse to own another firearm for my own safety hehe.
As someone who’s had their closest family member eat their own gun, good choice.
Your loved ones thank you for it.

Glad you’re sticking around partner. Stick to sprays, Saber red is the gold standard.
