I want to get an M1 Garand and 1911 for home defense, since I'm a bit of a history nerd. Is this a good idea? I figure if they were good enough to kill Fritz and Tojo they should be able to kill Tyrone and Jamal no problem.

I live in Canada, so the idea of "defending my home" with a gun is a bit foreign to me.
>>
I mean from a practicality standpoint they're more expensive and less effective than an ar/glock.


also .30-06 for home defense lul
>>
You would be better off with a semiauto Thompson, it's roughly the same price as the M1, and has a 30 round clipazine full of .45 African Cretin Puncher. 8-shots of 30-06 is shit for CQB; too much recoil and noise, plus the greatly increased risk of overpenetrating and killing your neighbors.
>>
>>33749529
hell yes. Very little is better suited for home defense if you are adequately trained in fighting with the bayonet.

You don't want to fire a full rifle indoors without ear protection or with loved ones or neighbours in adjacent buildings let alone rooms tho.
>>
>>33749529
if you enjoy being both deaf and in jail for over penetrating and killing 5 neighbors then yeah 30-06 for HD is a great idea.
>>
>>33749529
M1 carbine would probably be a better choice. Shorter, lighter, low recoil, higher capacity.

You can defend yourself if you feel your life is in danger, You just have to make it clear that you have no other options, aka Call police, Lock door, Grab gun and if they kick the door in, Shoot them

>>33749632
for hd, you'll want either a pistol caliber or at least a rifle caliber with a fairly light hollow point projectile (around .223 cal)

go watch some videos on YouTube of hicks destroying cinderblocks with their aks, over penetration isn't a meme
>>
>>33749775
Yea whats the current regulation? You have to have already offered to let them take whatever they want, they have to display aggressive violent behavior towards you before you even think about touching a gun, be cornered and naked, crying for what you're about to do before you shoot them?

This guy shot, 5 guys who were fleeing after trying to break into his house and they all died and this guy got off. Yes you may have to go to court but its better to be alive and in court then dead in the ground.

>>33749882
Used to work for BoA and got transferred to Texas HQ from LA, literally happiest moment of my life. In Cali you can't simply shoot a man for breaking into your house, he has to show enough lethal force for you to react the same. When I got to Texas and bought my first off roster handgun and I asked the guy what could I do if a dindu stepped on my lawn and told him to fuck off. He pulled in closer and said "son, if that man decides to piss on your lawn, you have the right to shoot his dick off"

Long live Texas

>>33749529
The Garand is long, heavy, and overpowered as shit for HD, .30-06 will go through every interior wall in it's way and out the exterior wall. I would rather suggest an M1 Carbine, it's lighter, shorter, has a larger magazine, and is much easier to control in rapid fire.
It'll go through interior walls too, but it'll stop at a brick or concrete wall, the .30 Carbine cartridge is comparable to .357 Magnum or so

A 1911 works, a pistol is a pistol.
>>
>>33749872
A 5.56mm or 5.45mm will do a pretty fucking solid job of dropping someone at HD distances, one shot, one kill.

>>33750556

that's a bad idea. the m1 will destroy your ears and kill your neighbors/roommates, and it's 8 rounds fed by clip, you stupid fuck, the 1911 also has too small a magazine.
if you got like a PPS-43 or an m1 carbine, that would be a better choice.
the best choice would be an automatic shotgun or an AKM/ar-15.

Excuse me, sir, but you clearly need the Niggerkiller-brand "Niggerkiller 9001," chambered in .22Niggerkill-LR. .22Niggerkill-LR still holds the record for most civilians killed by caliber, therefore, it is your best bet against Tyrone and Jamal.

If you wanted to use a Luger for home defense you would need to get the 100 year old springs replaced , and probably new springs for the magazines. Otherwise you may end up culturally enriched. Why not a walther p38? At least that's WWII and not WWI era. I mean, it's still 9mm but whatever, so is the Luger.

I have a gun rack in my room with a k98, vz.24, Turk mauser, Type 99, M1 garand, M1 carbine, m39, 91/30, and a couple Enfields. My nightstand has at least a clip for any of these guns, and there is a bandolier of 8mm hanging on the rack. Bayonets are in the closet.
