Studies have shown criminals who have been shot commit less crime!
Electro Mech Amen to that, brother!
The ones who get shot and end up in the morgue commit the LEAST number of crimes.
True
ONES THAT GET SHOT MULTIPLE TIMES ARE EVEN MORE CIVIC MINDED. THEY KEEP CEMETARIES OPEN.
They not trying to die 😂
Dude, your content is on such a higher level (production quality, etc) than any other gun channel, by a long shot.
Green Light Shooting you gonna be at SHOT? Shoot me an email at mike@llod.us, let's chat.
I can't believe you're not more popular. LLOD is right, your videos are very well put together.
This is liberal propaganda, if someone is wrongfully in your home there will be no federal charges in 99% of cases. "run and hide" , "the police will bring them to justice" whatever.
I love everything except his obsession with alien gear 🤢 Lol 😂 he knows better!!! Haha
How to prepare:
1. Lock doors
2. Loaded gun next to bed
Jango The Rango what did u do
@@apat4675 false accusations from my girlfriend
@POOR PIRANO oh my sweet Jesus this comment is fucking professional. 🤣
@@jangotherango7250 have a knife, cross bow, pepper spray, sling shot and .5" steel ball bearings, golf club, springer .25 air rifle heck anything near by and ready. Gun is best but find something legal you can own and get good with it. You could be the weapon if you knew martial arts
3. Drunk argument ensues. 4. Gun gets used on husband/wife/girlfriend/self/child. 5.Gun owner ends up dead or in prison.
Here in South Africa, most of this is second nature. I have over 6 foot concrete walls around my house, with electrified fencing on top of the wall, that is connected to my alarm system so if anyone breaks the fencing the alarm goes off, which is monitored by an armed response company. I have infrared perimeter beams outside my house, motion sensors inside including in garage, burglar bars on ALL windows, heavy duty steal gates on all doors and sliding doors inside and I bought myself a CZ P10C. All this to make sure my family has the best chance of being safe.
Damn, seems like you live in Zombieland or something.
I would never feel my family is safe if I had to take those steps to feel safe ! I think a safer bet would be to immigrate some place that has a better social/moral centre .
@@@splashpit I used to feel the same as you until I ran out of better places to run to.
The sun never goes down at my house it’s lite up at night all the time... the neighbors have asked me to turn lights off.. must be working, probably the easiest thing to do..
or you could just stop being a domesticated moron and have good quality high range motion sensor lights that catch anything out 50 ft. But you probably think that electricity is made by hamster wheels and all your food grows on a supermarket shelf.
I have motion sensor alarms on my perimeter that ring different tones for specific areas.Have no shrubs, window alarms, and a house alarm that announces point of entry.
Listen everyone. Great video. But FIRST If you carry your personal carry firearm LOCKED and LOADED on you then you better have your pistol loaded in a safe in your home. A firearm not ready to go is useless!
FatherSonFun 007 If you have time to unlock a safe I would think charging it as you pick it up shouldn’t be an issue
Just a Former Marine with combat experience. What do I know?!
I used to work in the military in an ADA Unit, and that should say enough! 🚀
As an Air Force Vet, I can't believe he's done 17 years and is only a Staff Sgt.
With most security systems going wireless in the last half decade or more, have a security sign outside, but NOT for the system you have. The frequencies of the sensors are public data thanks to the FCC so anyone with a $24 radio frequency jammer from Amazon can disable your motion, door / window, and glass break sensors. The alarm is a deterrent, however, just like locks, pros know what they are doing, and will jam it. If they try to jam the wrong one you set out as bait, they will go in cocky and trigger your alarm.
I just paid almost 1000 bucks a piece for a 2nd set of security doors that are supposed to be baseball bat proof. Also a dog or a couple dogs. Even a little agressive dog like a Jack Russell Terrier will alarm you w their higher sense of hearing and will even put them selves in harms way... But nothing Trumps good Riot Shotgun, AR15, 7 shot 357 magnum, or a hi cap 45acp or 9mm. I would rather not go smaller than a 9mm unless thats all i had. 380acp is in my unprofessional opinion kind of pushing it. 357magnum has the best one hitter quitter stats of Combat Caliber handguns
My weapon choice is a Springfield .45 ACP Mod 2, 45 has the stopping power and creates more damage for each round fired! How ever my home is hardened to include 3 heavy duty security doors, 6 window shutters, and crimsafe screen on the three small windows. The house is built with concrete block that was common of the day in 1967. I have flood lights all around the house and the block is painted high gloss white enamel so there is no hiding if police drive up. There are no trees or bushes, just golf course green grass. If I have to call the police I mention that I am a Chaplain with the Sheriff's Office, the officers take it personal if anyone messes with a Chaplain at his home or on duty!! This said that I have time to arm up, but also call my law enforcement friends to come and decide if deadly force is appropriate, then I can not be charged with using improper force. This said again, is that I choose to do this so I do not have to resort to using my weapon as I do not want to have to kill anyone!! Being prepared is the key to making sure you do not end up fighting for your freedom because you had to shoot anyone!!! I live in Arizona, we have the right to conceal carry or open carry, my weapon does not leave the house, it is in a safe unless my cameras are showing someone attempting to break in, then grab the pistol, charge it putting a round in the chamber (hollow point), then call 911. Never under any circumstance tell the 911 operator I'll shoot if the guy gets in. All 911 calls are recorded, this recording would then make it to court, guess what, you are now charged with pre-meditated murder. Do however make it known you possess a firearm so police are aware. In Arizona if the intruder has a weapon you can shoot in self defense, but you need to be able to articulate this to the jury that will be deciding your fate!! Surveillance cameras are excellent for this, both exterior and interior. Fighting a criminal proceeding against you can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, the cameras are but a fraction of that, and cameras do Not lie!!! Be Prepared!!!! Use common sense!!!
Excellent video overall!
Thank you- I think that if our children do not wake up and come to us, that we have to venture out and get our children, even with the unknown variables. I guess that’s just part of the plan. Any thoughts?
Hamlet Fortinbras make your smallest child's room the safety room. Everyone meet there, and then if any strangers walk through that door afterward, you can fire without worry.
Excellent video dude
The mass shooting I witnessed in Reno, Nevada involved a feud that broke out in my little quiet mobile park. At least five people armed themselves because of threats this crazy guy was making. He killed three, wounded three, he was wounded then shot himself.
Also, with the gel, don't forget, unless you are being invaded by a naked person, your round will be going through fabric (maybe several layers) in addition to bone.
Tannerite stuffed dog at the front door go BOOM 🤯
Great video. on caliber, of course there is lots of squabbling. In single stack carry I'd rather have more rounds for the same size gun., But if you live in a jurisdictions where there is a limit on mag capacity, say 10 rounds even for a full size home defense weapon, this changes your 9, 40, 45 calculus for home defense and 40 and 45 start to make more sense than 9.
Try a Liberty civil defense 9mm 50gr. +P it is devastating and is 2040fps! Or the .45cal 78 gr. @ 1900 fps in that gel block.
If your home seems more protected than other houses, a bad guy can thinks that your home contains more valuable stuf than the other houses. Probably you will prevent a random attack, but a pro would probably choose your house.
This is Real, 5am My home was broken into- 1 Guy on Drugs which absolutely knew we are in the house. He opened and went through both vanities on each side of our bed While We Are Sleeping in it !!! I woke up-wrestled - chased him out. I own 2-guns now and completely alarmed home.
How many of these comments are people who have survived am actual home invasion? I have and I didn’t have time to get a gun from my gun room much less load it even though it was 15 feet from my location in the front of the house. I didn’t have time to understand why someone would come into my home demanding money. Home invasions weren’t as common 20 years ago as they are today. This very dangerous situation was handled decisively, quickly, and quietly, without calling the police. The perpetrator actually leaped out the still open front door.
Great information I leaned a lot...I live in the most violent city in the United State in an apartment so some things I may have to do different ....thanks
First off have a good guard dog. For warned is for armed
reg profant ,
My giant Doberman saved me from a home invasion some 20 plus years ago. The person saw the error of his ways when a100 pound family protection dog starts running at you. 😳
All of the comments about caliber are opinions only. I obtained my CC standing next to a woman that was trying to get hers with way too much gun. She couldn’t control it and ended up not being successful. I wish we would remember that many folks that want to defend themselves are not all John Rambo and simply can’t control some of the calibers being touted as the “be all end all” in terms of self defense. Remember, most criminals when they realize they have been detected and are being shot at are Not going to hang around and engage in last stand at the Alamo with a homeowner determined to defend him/herself.
This video is good and seems to push the virtues of the venerable .45....great if you can control it and hit what you’re shooting at.
Let’s remember to keep some fraction of rationality when we suggest to a 5’ 110 lb female that the only way to properly defend yourself is with a hand cannon that can stop a tractor trailer and a 15 round magazine. Besides if your home invader is coming in barefooted all you really need is the big box of Legos scattered on the floor in front of your bedroom. He will never make it in to you.
You should have mentioned a preference for rifles due to more home invasions involving multiple bad guys with long guns and body armor. A handgun in this scenario is suicide.
Learn what your State Laws say regarding Defending your Domicile, and you will have less doubt and less hesitation in Home Defense situations.
We have 50 States and not all States have the same Laws.
Awesome video make more indeed/ Stay Safe / And Thank you Paramedics and Firefighters for Service being done during this 2020 crisis 😇
Great video, hope you do more like these
If rather have the 9 more ammo means more rounds what if there’s more than one intruder means less reloads. I know in a situation it’s what if’s but more capacity is a good thing
It just cracks me up that so many of you talk about killing intruders, no thought, no reasoning, just kill them. I am a concealed carrier. I carry every day at all times. I have never talked about or even wanted to kill anyone. I will STOP THE THREAT if someone attacks me. I will never TRY to KILL anyone. We all know that we must aim center mass to stop the threat. Probably if we hit center mass, someone will die. That is unavoidable in defense. But to talk about wanting to kill or not thinking, just shooting, is silly and dangerous. I hope none of you actually have to shoot someone. If I were a prosecutor, I would use these types of comments as Murder 1 ammo. Watch what you say, guys. It can all be used against you.
A couple nights ago, someone broke into my hone. Good thing I had my Remington 870 and Glock next to my bed
Putting your family in one room and hoping the invader only wants the TV is ridiculous. There's a saying " I'd rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6 " . Imagine living the rest of your life knowing you sat by while someone did what they wanted to your loved ones.. nah not me. Whoever breaks into an inhabited structure, does so knowing they are not welcome wanted and death is an option.
Why do you keep the chamber unloaded on your pistol?
SO YOU CAN RUN UP TO INTRUDER AND HIT HIM IN THE HEAD WITH THE GUN...YEA! , THATS THE TICKET!
You should know your home layout, why turn on the lights to let the intruder know your location?
Your soft deterrents,can also make you look like you have something to protect...
if you live in ghetto & bring a safe into your house , everyone knows.
Everyone knows you own guns if you have stickers, wear branded t-shirts or hats & you load car with guns in plain sight of others.
Tip for concealment- Guitar backpack is must have for long gun owners that live in apartments or close quarters housing.
Shouldn't fragmenting or hollow-point bullets be stopped by walls?
Right off the bat on the intro of that video two things wrong one is in a locked case 2 and 1 Navin Reddy battery
9mm is my choice. I'm not a professional. I've shot .45 and .40 but my carry is 9mm so my preferred pistol caliber is 9mm and 9x18 (Makarov) previously. Because I train with it and my wife shoots it that is our pistol caliber. A .45 will do more damage. I'm not going to disagree. The recoil of a .45 can be managed, but my wife can manage the 9mm better. I've tried to limit my pistol calibers so that in the event I'm not home my wife can use a 9mm pistol with higher capacity until she can reach an even higher capacity rifle to protect herself and the children. Just be mindful that regardless of the caliber you choose that you want high capacity. Don't listen to the politicians saying that no one needs a high capacity magazine. Statistically most home invasions involve more than one person (usually 2-3). The average Joe, not the Biden variety, is going to be nervous and is going to probably be awakening from a slumber so their shot placement and tactical skills will be low, i.e. you'll miss more than you hit. You may not be carrying an additional magazine or extra rounds. The guy on the other side of the gun is probably on drugs. Over 30% (some studies show higher) of home invaders are on mind altering drugs or they are irrational so their fear level will be low even when you're shooting at them and they won't just run away so the Joe Biden suggestion of shooting your double barrel shotgun in the air (Illegal by the way in most places and dangerous to innocents) is not going to deter the invaders. You need as much ammo as possible in your first magazine. If you have a 45 that can hold at or near the capacity as a 9 then that's good. Also note that they did a study of NYPD and found that their hit ratio was 20% they train way more than me.
Other things you can do is put in longer screws into your doors. It can still be busted down, but it will take a few more kicks. Get a professional tinter to install the shatterproof window film on all of you windows. Again, they can still break your windows, but it will take a little longer to do so which will give you more time. Leave a light on (randomly if possible). They may think you're awake and head to the next home. I have mixed feelings on motion lights they work, but can be triggered by cars and other things.
What do you think of the Sig 365?
The FBI did an extensive study on the 9mm .40 and .45 and found that for those three, the bigger two didn't have anything going for them that was significant enough to not use 9mm. Lower recoil, more rounds and easily just as lethal granted the shooter does their part. Easy choice.
Good job!
I gave this video a thumbs down. Most home Invasions are violent, someone forcefully entering a occupied home is completely different than a thief breaking into a empty home during the day. Between 2003 and 2007, home invasions leading to assault, rape and murder was 266,000 + out of 1 million. You have the advantage in your own home. Do everything in your power to ensure you and your loved ones are not a statistic. Don't let the fear of a possible lawsuit put you household occupants at risk. The choice should be clear, defending your actions in a court of law and in a civil trial is nothing compared to knowing your child or spouse was raped and murdered while you hid in a closet frozen with fear.
Oddly enough, blood doesn't contain DNA, use bear traps. I'M KIDDING! Blood doesn't have DNA, but the bear trap was a joke you zeebs. Great info in this video.
Great video
how do u prevent some on from breaking in through a regular door if locks aren't good enough
Best way's to not get a home invasion #1. Make sure you & your children are not in a gang # 2don't sell drugs & make sure your kids don't sell drugs including weed. #3 have dog. #4 Have firearms trian with them & carry hot even when at home watching tv or doing dishes !
Vertical tv
A barking dog is a great deterant
that stat also include car break-ins and domestic disputes. A guy knocks on his ex's window and she calls the cops. "home invasion" Im sure that happened at least a million times. Not disputing it but obviously we all care about our guns right. So what happens when someone gives you stats about homicides with guns? You point out that they count suicide's in those stats. take every stat with a grain of salt. i just hated how shocked he was at a statistic. Don't live your life in constant fear because of statistics. Don't let people like dude in this video hit u with a stat so u can fear what hes saying.
A couple of my stupid neighbors let yard-thrown newspapers gather until somebody decides to pick them up. All the while it looks like nobody is home. My other neighbor travels a lot. He never leaves not a single light on. He doesn’t understand how that might prevent a breakin. WTF?
Rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6. If you don't have a key don't turn the knob
Here’s a good tip i learned in the Army as an infantry. When you train with your firearm of choice, have a training event where you do whatever it takes to reach heavy breathing fatigue. Run, jumping jacks push ups. Make your body feel it. Then shoot. That’s a simulation of how you’re going to feel with fear, adrenaline, and knowing that’s another human in your sights. Stress shooting is what it’s called
@Priest
Sir..I agree with you.
But..a human needs the feelings of fear to survive.
Fear is a warning but it must not controls you.
Without fear we never would be able to survive from the times of primitive times until this times.
But you must always controls the fear..and not the fear let controls you.
Fear can be a great friend..but you must controls it.
Even Mike Tyson feels fear before a fight..he said that.
It can be very dangerous to not feel fear.
Sir take care..
Great advice
100% agree, good to train that way in a street fight situation, due to lack of food, injuries stress etc. measure your capabilities and increase mental toughness keeps the fighting spirit
Good shit brotha. I was an infantryman in the marines, 0311. We called them stress shoots, they def work.
It's called a stress shoot
Sorry, Usmc veteran. No one breaking Into a house should be expecting a warm glass of milk and cookies.
Anyone breaking into my house should expect my son and I to be overdressed and overly compliant.
I lock my doors at night for your safety NOT mine! If you get around my locks please prepare to receive lead ventilation therapy.
Well put sir!!
So if your neighbor runs up to your locked door and pounds on it your going to kill him ? Think about this maybe his house is on fire and he's trying to get you to call 911. Maybe he's having a heart attack and wants you to call 911. Maybe it's a stranger and his car broken down and wants you to call a tow truck, but you're going to shoot first. Brilliant.! Let me know how things work out for you in prison.
@@frankwhite377 u need to get your eyes checked the comment poster said (if you get around my locks) meaning if the person enters forcefully not if u knock or bang on my doors or use the door bell so befor you get on your high horse and try to preach about having a heart you should read everything that was posted rather then what you want to read and put someone down just because they decide to protect themselves
@@thantosblack5618 Factful comment
Castle law. if someone breaks inside of your house and you feel like your life is in danger you can take theirs. 2nd amendment
It's bs. Someone comes into my home at night, done. What happened to this country. We bend more rules than the Catholic Church. People need to learn they're consequences for their actions.
enlighten them to the dangers of invading a home with a round to the forehead, "open their mind" if you will
@@milmech4376 on god, if they dont want to use their head take it tf off
I live in Canada & for home invasion i have a a wooden spoon
Sorry bud.
Did you send a thank you card to your emperor?? Sorry man Lol
I hope it’s splinter free… I’d want to avoid a civil lawsuit.
Let's hope no one brings a gun to a spoon fight
Lmao 🤣🤣🤣😆 MOVE TO FLORIDA
My favorite property sign is “ Warning! I own firearms and a backhoe, proceed with extreme caution”
“Wrongful death, you didn’t know this person, now you have blood on your hands” are you kidding id rather take their life than they take one of my loved ones or mine
He is simply saying that if you live alone or just your wife in one safe location, there isn't really a need to go out and look for a kill. Just defend your room and call police. They may get your tv but you don't take a life and deal with court and possible legal battles with the family of the person you shot. Obviously things change if you have kids down the hall or something like that.
Been working in this industry for quite a while. I never tell someone that they cannot or should not defend their home from an invasion, especially an armed invasion. This only serves to plant seeds of confusion in the minds of students. I say KNOW your state laws regarding the use of lethal force and continually subject yourself to training in them and in the use of firearms.
Best States to live in are those that have castle doctrine and no duty to retreat and also those that protect defenders from civil suits. If you live in such a State that will subject you to civil suits even though no criminal charges are brought against you, forces a decision and question.... "do you as a protector of your family really need to live in such a victim producing anti-gun, anti-family and traditional male persecuting environment?"
Maintaining the ability and freedom to defend oneself against evil doers is a basic human right. Why live in such an area where the lives of criminals are valued more than the lives of law abiding citizens that only want to protect their family?
Come in uninvited ? They have not come for tea and cake
there is insurance against civil suits for using deadly force.
Corrupt bureaucratic legislature should be ignored and circumvented. When the watch dogs of a corrupt bureaucracy come to enforce corrupt laws, realize they will arrest or kill you despite your true innocence based on the most recognizable sense of defense in human nature.
200,000 years of humanity, and we've finally found a way to replace strength and truth with weakness and hesitance.
Break into my house, where my daughters sleep... And you forfeit your right to live. It's either me or you.... I could care less why you broke my window and crawled into my home
Exactly. Once you've made that leap from being outside to being inside, uninvited, you're dead.
Sean, I hope you don't shoot your daughters' boyfriends by mistake when they get to that age.
could be a boyfriend tryna get some cheeks
Exactly. If you have drug problems there are hospitals all over the place that will treat you. You break into my house and you'll receive a different kind of treatment.
100% for those with kids. A dad doesn’t have the luxury to guess and figure things out. Even as this guy said, you DON’T know their state of mind.
Practice is your most important preparation. I go through home invasion scenarios and responses at least once a month. You don't want to be wondering what to do if someone kicks your door open during the middle of the night. BTW - practicing will also help you figure out what your weaknesses are and what home defenses will work for you.
I hear the shotgun racking thing a lot. But my thought is congrats, not only are they in your house but now you're helping them find you faster.
Inb4 some guy creates a robot that racks a mounted shotgun for them as a decoy
I’ve recently heard that people who break into occupied houses aren’t behaving logically, so you can’t think of how you would behave and assume they will do the same. That’s too bad, because I always wanted a doorbell that sounds like guns racking.
@@NostraDamnU88 lol that would be a nice doorbell. But as far as behavior I think you are right. That's why my gun is already racked for a dummy that kicks in the wrong door and puts my family in danger.
Brian B. Exactly. If someones willing to break in they’re more than likely willing to kill you.
I hope they come find me faster because I got 11 rounds of 00 buck waiting for them. I'll rack my shotgun and let them decide if they want to steal my TV or come face off with me where I barricaded myself.
Thank you so much for this. As a 1st-time homeowner and father of 2yr old. I want to make sure my family and home are safe.
4in screws in every door and frame screw hole.. no more one kick doors, and tell them to hide when the first thump in the night happens never wait for the second thump..
Get a couple of Sigs and put in solid metal security gates in an area you pick as the safe area.
From personal testing and being a window and door installer the only way to get a door to be better against break ins is 1 buy a door specifically with prevention's like head and foot bolts made of hardened steel, and 2 get a metal lock jamb as this will hold up a bit longer than wood.
Watch Active Self Protection on YT
Yessir just make sure it's not your two year old running around the house in the middle of the night alot of people have killed their kids accidentally thinking an intruder broke in
3" screws on door hinges and strike plates so they go a couple inches into the studs with metal exterior doors
In Texas if you find an unauthorized person is in your home the homeowner can use the the necessary lethal Force to take that person out. Texas is a make my day law state, and also you are protected from any civil liability. What this means is you cannot be sued.
I love in AZ. Worth leaving Cali. I feel safer being in a place where I can ACTUALLY defend myself.
Actually, you can be sued in the state of Texas for wrongful death, because the immunity statute is an affirmative defense that must be raised and proven by the Defendant. What that means is if my family member dies at your hands, I can sue you, and you can raise the affirmative defense of statutory immunity, but it is YOU that would have to prove by clear and convincing evidence that you engaged in lawful self defense. It can indeed be tough to win a lawsuit this way, because evidence obtained from a police investigation can't be used in civil court.
John Doe What’s wrong with our moral fabric in America? Someone breaks into a home and the homeowner kills him to protect his family and himself. Then, he gets sued for wrongful death? Frickin’ leftists! The prosecutor will say “You didn’t have to kill him.” And somehow a jury is going to justify taking money out of my pockets because I killed someone who broke into my home and threatened me and my family?! Well guess what...you can’t sue a trust, a beneficiary or a trustee. Folks, put your house in a trust. Your car, your bank accounts, everything! Own nothing! Let your trust own it all. Then tell them to F off.
@@Harlem55 what proof do you need besides some stranger illegaly entering your home at night?
Laws always have technicalities. Knowledge is power if you read comments like this and trust in them then you are a fool the law library in every city is open to the public. Don't trust Joe Shmoe online to tell you the laws.
The racking of your glock does not scare away criminals either. Keep one in the chamber. If one is not comfortable with one in the chamber you are not completely comfortable with a loaded weapon.
I couldn't agree more Paul...COULD NOT AGREE MORE! It boggles my mind when people tell me that they carry on their person, but aren't comfortable with carrying with one in the chamber. When asking how confidently they feel about (god forbid) pulling that firearm and racking a round while under duress, in the dark, after waking up from a dead sleep, and they reply with "Oh I haven't shot it yet but I'm probably gonna go this weekend"....wuh wuh wuh WHAT!?!?! Train like you fight people, no matter if you're at a range (as best you can at a range) or you're out in the woods. Don't just play who can fire rounds off the fastest or shoot sideways like an idiot. Take the day, plan it out, and train like you fight. You never know when your life might depend on it.
The racking of an AR15 should scare them. That's a lot more distinct than that of a Glock. All it takes is one 5.56 and they'll decide (If you let them) that your home was not the one to try and rob!
One on the chamber is hazardous in case of accidents yes but it will give you the 2 seconds you need to start pumping rounds.
James Lee With enough training it shouldn’t be
You need to train whether you have one on the chamber or unchambered you need to train. Israeli LEO and Servicemen train to rack the gun when drawing the pistol.
Great video I am definitely sharing this far and wide. I like your approach to the subject in a common sense manner and not overly "tacti-cool".
The threat of a civil suit is not a concern in states where the castle doctrine contains provisions denying the right to sue, to the actor or the actor's family. It is imperative that you do research on your States version of the castle doctrine, also referred to as the make my day law. There are slight variations in policy between states that have enacted this legislation and not knowing the specifics could mean the difference between a good shoot and a life in prison.
Dale Sczweck Or use a silencer and bury them without telling anyone, it doesn’t sound moral, but laws that aren’t castle doctrine basically require it whether those politicians want it to be that way or not
My setup
1st line: 6ft fence
2nd line: motion sensing lights around property
3rd line: 110lb female, 130lb male Rottweilers
4th line: pew-pews (assorted variety)
Half the time for less than half the rounds!? The recoil on the .45 is also causing point of impact issues from recoil. The 9mm with home defense rounds is less likely to over penetrate and if over penetrates is less likely to kill after over penetration. While I myself love the .45 the 9mm is proving to be a better choice in a high stress situation with less recoil better control and more rounds before needing to reload. Therefore the 9mm in my opinion works better for the majority of situations.
Not trying to be hypercritical and I think this was an excellent quality video. My question is, why the hell was that gun not hot? Those seconds matter, and even more so the noises... you want the upper hand and that racking sound along with the bang of that safe really is a huge disadvantage. Sounds all tacticool to chamber your gun and such, but it’s simply not practical.
Exactly. In the safe especially, that thing better be hot.
Good stuff, Chad. Like the new intro a lot. I think if you do videos like this and your own take on a regular guy doing gun reviews I think you're setting yourself up for success this new year!
Job 1 get a dog that barks when the window is broken.
I have a black lab that barks at anything that happens nearby. It’s often very annoying but no one gets near the house without us knowing.
Exactly! A dog should be a priority for home security. 2 dogs even better, to cover multiple areas in the home. I have 2 dogs and a .40S&W with 15 rounds.
You're wrong. We homeowners do know their intent. Their intent is to die
That statement shows criminal intent in itself. You'd better pray you never shoot someone or else it will be used in court against you. Well done, genius.
If their intent is do for they they better not come in my house.
i live in the middle of nowhere, police response time is over an hour if they even show up , my neighbor a couple miles away had 5 + guys brake into his house they cut the locks on his gate drilled threw the lock on a sliding door, stole his safe , guns , ammo 4 quads a tractor his sports car, they had a truck with a trailer and loaded up pretty much every in his house on it ,he has a neighbor that saw drones flying around his house before the brake in so they must of been watching him, he called the copes after the brake in and they came a day later lol. it opened my eyes a lot that im on my own out here and I've been doing everything i can to security my house and family . now i have bars over the lower windows ,security doors , security cameras reinforced every door in the house exc. so i like watching theses videos to see if there is ideas i haven't thought of .
I agree take the high ground and let them come to you...Retired LE 43 years. Love your video's. Thanks
I think you have far too much faith in the police. I'd be just as worried about them coming in hot and shooting me and my family as I would be worried about the intruder doing it. Even more so actually. I'd rather have cameras set up around my house that live feed to my safe room so that I can assess the situation first and then "go hunting" if I deem it appropriate. That could easily be done for a few hundred dollars.
I have to agree with you. As a ex law enforcement officer the police can only respond to crimes that have been committed not the ones that haven't been committed yet. In other words the police are not our baby sitters. I know there here to protect and service but they can't be every where waiting for something to happen. My experience was police show up after something goes down not before.

camera info so i can look into this thanks
This is real wisdom right here, thx for sharing your thoughts.
I think you are thoroughly brainwashed by MCM police are rigorously investigated on every shooting they participate in. Take the recent events for example BLM doesn't want you to know when a POOR VICTIM was trying to RAPE a WOMAN or on so much DRUGS they would have DIED ANYWAY or if they were ATTACKING the POLICE they only want you to know someone was shot by the police. I am not saying police never make mistakes but your claim that they are more likely to shoot is purely based on your washed brain.
how about unpredictable schedule, dogs, cameras, motion lights, high security locks(unpickable, un bumpable), reinforced doors, once inside door remains locked, can't leave through the door. basically the only way to forcefully enter is to take out an entire wall. once inside, have to deal with the dogs, who have given plenty of time to take defensive position. how is that for a plan? nobody aware of anything valuable in the house either. if any guest comes, everything is put away.
Shit, just live in a bank vault!
Dogs are no replacement for guns. One hotdog down a hallway and crook has free passage. This theory has been tested by everyone from mythbusters to youtubers. Please put the BS away.
Good points. A dog is the best alarm anyone could ask for, but they don't do you much good if they're in the bed with you in my opinion. Dogs should be in the living area where they can hear the things we can't as we're sleeping.
Well done, reflecting a lot of the independent research I have done.
One other thing you may want to consider is reinforcing certain walls or areas in the home, such as your balcony wall. I recently discovered (while researching how gun rooms are made) that you can make a wall multi-hit bullet proof to about 308 rounds by filling inbetween your 2x4's with course rock, and layering each side with overlapped 1/2" or 3/4" sheets of plywood, followed by standard drywall. The plywood helps to slow down and start to break apart the projectiles, and the rock is sacrificial - breaking apart to absorb the velocity, at which point it falls down and more rocks back-fill the space. You'd want to mock up a test wall to test and be sure, of course, but just something to think about for cover, instead of concealment.
Green Light Shooting no problem. If you want more info, I got it from this website about gun safes and gun safe alternatives: gunsafereviewsguy.com/articles/how-to-protect-your-guns/4/#build-closet-gun-safe. Here is an excerpt:
"First remove the drywall inside. Then line the closet by “screwing and gluing” up a couple layers of plywood. “Gluing” refers to construction adhesive, which should be used between the studs and the plywood, and between the plywood sheets. Use screws that penetrate at least 2″ into the studs. For strength, lay out the plywood so that the seams don’t overlap." "wall construction can be taken even further if both sides of the wall are sheathed in plywood. According to this book on home security construction, plywood-sheathed walls can be filled up with rough gravel to make them bulletproof against pistol and most rifle rounds. The gravel must be 3/4″ or 1/2″ rough, not smooth, and the floor must be able to handle the weight."
Making sure the underlying structure can handle the weight will be critical here. In, for example, the balcony/stairway shown in the video, you would probably need a heavier beam supporting that half wall if you were to reinforce it.
Too much worrying about these pistol calibers. The only purpose for your pistol is to get to your rifle.
Or your shotgun loaded buckshot or slugs.

Nah. Some living situations a pistol is better. Never thought I’d use a pistol for home defense. Always used a 12 gauge but now I use a Glock 17 with a 33 round big stick mag plus one in the chamber. Shotgun/rifle wouldn’t be realistic in my current living situation. Would take up way too much space. Trust me 34 9mm hollow points will handle any home invader including more than one.
That is why God created the SBR brother.
Amen!
Great video. Awhile ago I woke up with my dog barking like crazy (which she never does) and I thought someone had broken in. I was prepared with a handgun and flashlight, but my hands were shaking so bad- I've since switched to an SBR for the added stability of the stock.
If you own pistols. Always carry on your person especially at home until it’s time to sleep.
Cause if someone kicks the door in the last thing you want is to have to run for a gun.
So true the time i am most vulnerable is while i shower. otherwise I am ALWAYS armed with 11 rounds of .45 one of which is chambered.At night it becomes 16 rounds of 10mm one of which is in the pipe. If multiple assailants that is what the Ar is there for.
Early Bird You won’t know if it’s multiple though. That’s why I just run a 33+1 big stick mag in my Glock.
Awesome info in this one Chad. It's also clear, concise and approachable in presentation. I love the opening scene...its shot and produced so well. Awesome intro too! I vote you make it the official channel intro. Some of the best stuff I've seen from you hands down. Great way to kick off the year!
Leave the lights on folks
👍
My security system turns on lights one is pointed right at me in my bed. I find that wakes me to a very alert stat almost immediately. it also aids in finding my weapon.
But muh environment.
@@HHI455 would you kindly tell me what security system you have sir? I'm trying to buy one for my home
@@emperordonaldtrump1st614 It was installed and is monitored by a company called Alert 360. I have had an alarm for years and over the years i have added a LOT of features, it is now a nice system.
Screw the vault, gun out and within reach with round in the chamber. You need window glass break alarms too. Some people will not awake so easily. Time is everything.
I can’t allow my tv being stolen, nascar is life
damm all common sense to me. only thing I would disagree with in this vid is the gun box. fuck that. my pistol and my vest are both ready the instant I wake up , even if someone is at plain of my bedroom door jam. how about you guys?
9mm wins. Shouldn't you keep your guns loaded? Awesome video👍👍.
you gotta check it
Round selection. Get some +p 124 grain 9mm and it will outperform any
.45. I love the .45 but I cant justify its supposed "stopping power" for lack of capacity, slow bullet speed, and similar energy characteristics to 9mm (and .40 for that matter).
JCK Timeless how do you define outperform? the .45 will create a larger cavity wound no matter the circumstance. The 9mm is just a faster round. No matter how you put it, the .45 doesn’t get any smaller or lighter.

@@darylcollins2972 should call up the FBI. They've dumped quite a large amount of money into the 3 big calibers (9mm, .40, and .45) and concluded that there isn't anything substantial enough to justify any of those over 9mm. Shot placement is key, not the bullet when it comes to those three.
In Florida, the law does not allow the families of bad guys to sue you for wrongful death. There is no duty to retreat and the assumed intent is they are in your home to do you harm, so you can defend yourself appropriately without fear of being sued.
Biggest step to avoid being a victim of a home invasion robbery: Don't be a drug dealer.
Drug dealers aren't the only ones tha get robbed though
Are you really that naive? Drug dealers are not the only people that get invaded and even if you are a drug dealer you can protect yourself and your family.
I am a retired law enforcement officer in Arizona, I made a comment on how I made my home a hard target. The reason to make your home a hard target is that you will Not have to use deadly force to protect your family from a home invasion or burglary. Arizona gives me the right to possess a firearm and to use it in my home if I can articulate to a jury that I was in fear of my family's life and/or my own life. Might sound simple, but it is not, and even if you are acquitted in criminal court you can still be sued in civil court for wrongful death. The reason I bring this up is to show that my home is prepared enough so that I can call 911 and get the police there asap. Then it is up to the officers if they use deadly force, you would at best only be called in to identify the person that attempted to get into your home. This is assuming the police got there quickly and the criminal was arrested. Everyone reading this should read the local laws concerning use of deadly force, and not just the gun can be deadly, even a baseball bat can kill when used skillfully. My home severely slows down the criminal, giving me time to arm myself and call the police. In Arizona I have the right to use deadly force only if the intruder is displaying that same amount of force to me. The law is clear, and being educated on the law makes it best for you the home owner. Do what you can so you do not have to resort to deadly force and to keep yourself out of criminal court proceedings. If you can build a Safe Room, investigate the ways to do so here on the internet! Be prepared!!
A very professional production, a leap above the vlog style of your previous videos (which are still very good). My 2 cents, continue improving your firearm knowledge and skills with professional training and get a real high speed camera. I'm lookig forward to future episodes.
Uhhhh no, I'm not going to assume an intruder wants my stuff rather than harming me or a family member. Have a wife? Kids? So stop with the "male ego" bull. I have PEOPLE to defend in more than one area of the home. If it were just me, I might hunker down and wait.

Love the video! It’s very educational , especially since I’m a first time homeowner with a family that I want to keep safe. Keep up the great work!
The potential legal ramifications are exactly why I want to get insurance through one of the companies that offer it for people in self/home defense situations. I'd gladly pay a premium a month for an insurance policy that could keep me out of jail and cover the cost of a lawyer for a civil suit. Crazy to think that someone could potentially face jail time and financial ruin for defending their home and family.
Brian Fassbender I know right, amazing how an intruder comes in and you fight for your life and then the intruder family wants to sue you... the laws should be different, like you have to defend your home.! And fa,ily
Thank you for sharing your insights. No matter how much I know or don't know, or have not thought about, I keep my mind open to learning. I have 25 years law enforcement experience and another 12 with the military. You gave some good information for tips to be a hard target. Homeowners need to do a home security survey taking a good look at their home. Think of how they would make entry and improve their security. Have a plan, role play, and think about how you should respond preparing your mindset for the potential threat. If someone does enter when you are home it is best to let them come to you and not search for them. If you have contacted law enforcement, you do not want them arriving and mistaking you for the criminal, especially if you're armed. If you have called 911 and must confront the criminal (s) give a description of what you are wearing and who you are to reduce your danger with responding LEOs .Either you or a family member stay on the phone with 911 so updates of the incident can be forwarded to responding LEOs. If you must defend yourself or your family, be ready to respond without hesitation. Definitely have a good defensible location with cover to stop incoming firepower. If all else fails have an exit strategy to protect you and your family. Last but not least, train with your weapons system so you understand how to use it in case you need it. Calibers matter. However, shot placement is the key to incapacitating a threat.
Around the 10:00 minute mark, you went full Connecticut liberal with the withdraw and hide technique. Might work for wealthy elites in large homes; average people in average homes, not so much.
By far your very best thus far! Keep up the good work! I hope this is the direction you are taking for 2018!!!
Whenever some ‘door-to-door’ salesman comes, but has no uniform, no paper, no clipboard, no brochure, no card. Assume you just got cased for a home invasion.
Not sure where your logic comes from, but if anyone breaks into my home I’m not going to set up an interview first and ask what their intentions are, but I sure will offer them a full meal of lead.
