Coe, people like that are ready and willing to shot anyone that stands in their way. It's just like the old saying don't pull a gun unless you are willing to use it. My point is make sure you have extra mags easily accessible. I wouldn't use a shotgun unless it was loaded with OO buck or slugs. If you cripple a thief, American courts have a history of making you care for them the rest of their lives. While killing someone may not be very nice, they are stealing you blind and I doubt they worry about taking a life. I've had a bass boat stolen and many other high dollar items. I'm tired of being a victim. The law is useless. Consider me a vigilante with no regrets.
