Re: Getting ready to go to a Christmas party
One standard capacity 9MM semi-auto pistol has more firepower than that even WITHOUT a spare mag, so I don't understand all the comments. Pocket knife? Who doesn't carry one? Light? It is not a defensive implement anyway. Now the grenades and Claymores, I admit that's a bit much.

Re: Getting ready to go to a Christmas party
I haven't done a scientific study, but I imagine that 97% of scientists would agree that nobody has ever commented after a gun fight "I brought too much stuff."
On the other hand, years of watching "The A-Team" has convinced me that the side that runs out of ammo first, loses. Also, that everyone uses a Mini-14, and that cars will flip over really easily.Attorney Phil Kline, AKA gunlawyer001@gmail.com

Re: Getting ready to go to a Christmas party
Confirmed by James Dean Sanderson's book Behind Enemy Lines, published in 1959. Comments from The Boston Herald: "Exciting, manly reading." Terror, torture, destruction and death - it was kill first or be killed for these men who fought their own private hit-and-run war.
I found it to be a fascinating read of ten different WWII stories that never made the news, but against formidable odds and through heroic efforts of those involved, produced surprising results. Here's a quote from the chapter "The A-Bomb That Never Was" (the destruction of the German heavy water production plant in Norway in 1943 by a few determined Norwegians):
"...a month later, he ran directly into a three-man Nazi ski patrol.
They began to fire at me immediately from about one hundred meters, but fortunately it was rough country and I was able to get out of danger for the moment. I thought I would be able to run away from these Nazis, since like many Norwegian children I had been given my first pair of skis at a very early age.
But I soon saw that one of my pursuers was as good as I, a big man who probably had grown up in the Tyrol. I paused to fire one shot from my Colt 32 at him and saw to my joy that he had only a Luger, whereas the other two, now outdistanced, had shot at me with rifles. I realized that the man here who emptied his pistol first would lose the contest."
So there you have it...- bamboomaster

Rules are written in the stone,
Break the rules and you get no bones,
all you get is ridicule, laughter,
and a trip to the house of pain.
