| Firearms and Other Weapons Had a request for this forum, so here it is. Guess it will give me some place to talk about guns myself after selling my ArmsLocker forum. |

concealed carry limits you to a handgun in most locality's
home defense is a totally different ball game that's almost always best
handled with a decent 12 ga shot gun, because theres not much else that is even almost as effective at across the room ranges as a 12 ga in skilled hands
even a sub machine gun in most cases can,t inflict as much damage on an opponent as a good semi auto riot gun in skilled hands

As for "1 shot stops", if you want to bet your life on that, use a shotgun.

Chart is on page 2. Another thing about home defense is you don't want to penetrate your wall and that of your neighbors. Can you even imagine killing an innocent guy next door? Shotguns won't do that.

I don't think my preferred weapon of choice is legal even with a CCW permit.
Although they are more for recreational type of events than personal protection.
SPAZ 12 and H&K MP5

I rebarreled it down to 6" years ago...

I cannot find any info anywhere that they made a 12" model. I wonder if somehow it came from the custom shop? You may regret cutting it down to 6".

Yeah, if that were the case, he could have named his price from a collector if he had documenting paperwork from Colt.

Well, I hope you kept the original barrel, since they simply screw into the receiver. A 12 inch Colt Python like that would have to be a one of a kind, special order, item, and certainly QUITE valuable now. Especially if you still have the original box and documentation from Colt.
