I myself prefer the HK-91 heavy assault rifle for shooting at intruders who are in cars, jeeps or behind brick walls; the HK-94 submachine gun for sneaking around in the backyard grove; the Remington 870 Brushmaster 12-gauge in combat configuration for close-quarters arguments; and the Weatherby Fibermark Mark V .340 WM for sniping around the backyard at those 1000yd ranges. I however have not yet been able to decide on the optimal handgun to carry to amuse myself. Semi-auto or revolver? Big/little? Any ideas? -- Brian A. Ehrmantraut Ad Maioram Gloriam Hasturi!
