I just wish i wasnt such a fraidy cat. I'd rather wound or slow someone way down. if someone is after you, a flesh wound is only going to piss them off, get some forest ninja skills if you kill one, you should be ready to kill his buddies too he must mean one of those guns that are almost like a mini gun. they would actually seriously tear someone to shreds. i think they can shoot like over 1000 bbs a minute. screw it i tell you what, just get one of these...

Anonymous Coward User ID: 28671024 United States 12/08/2012 08:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If the BB Gun interests you, you should look into other weapons in the same class. The infamous Rubber Band Gun I would say sling shot, but the sling shot might actually kill someone with the right object loaded into it. Spitwads are about as good Darts, once again would probably be a move up in class. water balloons might get their attention and be in the same class as the b b, that is unless you load a much ore deadly liquid in them, and then it would also move up a class in defense. a frisby might really smart like a bb. Throwing your shoe would also be about the same |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 28606251 United States 12/08/2012 09:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yea, i dont think so. You kidding, right? Oh wait while i get my mean old can of wasp and hornet spray. Wait right there, you mean ole criminal!!! No, I'm not. Price out pepper spray. If you're not prepared for the front door, or back, well then good luck. On the other hand, all we're trying to do is delay the assault, with time on our side and this is a formidable offensive move. ......just sayin'. Just wondering, that's all. So just an ordinary can or is it some specialty device??? shoots 30 feet? I should get a few cans and place them strategically by the doors and bedrooms. most wasp spray cans have 30 foot range so you get the nest. at $4 per can, yeah, one in each room is easy and it can be lethal. it will stop someone now sprayed in the face. |
natasha77 (OP) User ID: 28641059 United States 12/08/2012 09:02 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yes if you need a weapon that doesn't make much noise and also causes no injury Could a criminal be stopped by pumping a few rounds??? Be serious, please. Seriously. NO. A BB gun is not going to stop an attacker. It will only piss them off. If you aren't going to arm yourself with a real gun but your attacker thinks you have one because all he knows is that you are pointing something at him, you are only going to get yourself shot... by a real gun. Not everyone is cut out for guns. That's fine. Just don't bother picking anything up that looks like a gun if it isn't and don't bother getting a real gun if you can't handle the thought and never intend to use it. You would be better off with mace or a taser. Yea, so true. I understand what you mean. A little lady with a mean looking pistol that shoots BB's would probably get me killed. I just thought it would incapacitate an intruder, at least while i ran with my stiff painful knee. That wasp killer is starting to look better and better, at least their eyes would burn for awhile. Thanks. SPEAK UP. SILENCE IS DEADLY! I am currently experiencing life at several WTFs per hour. |

So just an ordinary can or is it some specialty device??? shoots 30 feet? I should get a few cans and place them strategically by the doors and bedrooms. We were talking about "a big can of....." so I made reference to why it would be good, that being said it can and should be anything at hand. What is near everybody's front door? Maybe an umbrella, a cane, a whatever that you can use to distract the intruders eyes, for that split second, knowing your next move is the difference. Take some local defense courses for your own piece of mind. You'll be amazed at what you'll learn that's available to you......at all times. :Canadian F::State of Texas: "Misunderestimating is only 5/4 th's of the problem"!

Anonymous Coward User ID: 28647427 United States 12/08/2012 09:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm not the violent type but would like to own something that "hurts" lol. Seriously, can you inflict pain on an intruder or stop them? Precisely why my conceal carry instructor instructed us to shoot to kill . Not Hurt or injur . Because then you really just pissed somebody off that obviously wasnt giving much of a fuck to begin with. Not only that but you leave yourself open to lawsuit for malicious injury because if you were shooting < bb gun or otherwise > simply to injur you obviously didnt believe your life was in danger. On top of that . I got shot in the eye when I was 20 and a single stream of blood flowed from my eye. It mad me mad EXTREMELY mad. The only thing that stopped me from destroying the guy that did it was it was an accident . If I'd been an intruder in your house and you shot me in the eye? Seeing I'd already be a bad guy in that instance I woulda crammed that bb gun up your ass sideways. Get a gun , a real gun . And aim center mass. It would suck having taken someones life but . I always say " better you than me " |

Some of the darts are four inches long...then of course they have little plastic ball tips on them too. Quoting: waitn4end You can get very accurate. It is very silent.
