Unlike you, I actually train with my gun so we have very different concerns when under pressure. Mine relate more to not getting killed to make some kind of moral stand about how guns are bad in all contexts.
Brother I aint said shit about how I feel about gun ownership, you read into that. I’m just pointing out that I really do think a claw hammer is just an overall more utilitarian self defense weapon.
Okay fair enough. I would agree it’s definitely better than something unwieldy like an AR, but personally I’d rather have a handgun than a hammer. If someone’s breaking into my house and actively snooping around such that simply hiding and waiting for them to leave isn’t going to keep me safe, then there’s an above normal (but probably not strictly likely) chance that they’re on some kind of stimulant. A hammer may or may not put them down. A few hollow points tearing through their chest cavity probably will. Hammer definitely isn’t bad, but I personally think the odds are stronger with a handgun.
