    I've listened to a lot of BR over the years GODDAMMIT IF HE SAYS YOU'VE GOT THIRTY SECONDS LEFT IN THIS SEGMENT ONE MORE TIME and this was an unusually good one. I would like to take a class from Mr. Chandler.

    I've always liked Ballistic Radio, but was surprised by how much more I liked this episode. Listening more, it seemed like TC was doing a lot more talking than JJRG, and it was surprising how much more information seemed to get across.

    [MENTION=4]TCinVA[/MENTION] at the end of the episode you mentioned that the best thing's to adapt a currently owned hunting shotgun into a good HD shotgun were a shorter stock, a buckshot that patterns well, and training. In general, what else would you recommend? For example what does your HD shotgun look like?

    Also, any other tips you have for hardening the home would be welcome. It was a really good interview.

    I'm not TCinVA, but I am taking a Tom Givens shotgun class next week (I've also done Lee Weems's class). Mr. Givens sent an e-mail out recently for things we should bring to his classes, and on the shotgun front he suggested:

    - No pistol grip-only stocks. Stocks with a pistol grip and a buttstock are fine, but it needs to have a stock.
    - Stock with a LOP 12"-13". Shorter people trend more towards 12", taller people more towards 13". Various commercial offerings on this front, or you can have yours shortened.
    - At least 4-round capacity.
    - Method of storing ammo on the gun (side saddle or butt cuff).
    - 18-22" barrel.
    - FliteControl buckshot, or at least buckshot that patterns well.

    Though I'm sure he'll speak on that topic more, following those guidelines should get you pretty close to a good setup. My 870 HD setup is a Magpul stock (~12.5" LOP), Surefire forend, +1 extension (5-shot gun), and a Vang Comp side saddle. It also has XS sights on the barrel.

    Tom beat me to the punch on that one...but yeah, that's what my go-to HD shotgun looks like. My alternate is an 870 Wingmaster with rifle style sights, a Magpul stock, and a Surefire forend on it.

    As for home hardening, you are on the perfect forum to bring that up and get some rational, reasonable responses from a number of people with experience with various products.

    Good measures to start would be:

    - Deadbolts in your doors and longer screws affixing the deadbolts and the strike plates
    - Hurricane film on windows
    - Good alarm system
    - Good camera system with at least one camera clearly visible as a warning to shitheads
    - Good dog trained to help keep watch and protect against intruders

    It would be a great topic in and of its own right where people with experience with various aspects could give sage guidance on purchase decisions, installation, etc.

    In general I'm not a huge fan of Ballistic Radio, but that episode was excellent.

    Informative follow-up discussion here too.

    I listened to it today at work. Great interview.

    The Cheshire murders is one of those that just haunt you. I have 2 daughters and thinking about what those poor girls had done to them prior to being murdered just absolutely makes me sick to my stomach.

    [QUOTE=Robert Mitchum;770286]I remember Hayes and Komisarjevsky.

    It was the perfect Job for my personality back than ..had the pleasure of bouncing one of them off a wall years ago.
    The difference between myself and those two was ... I was bigger stronger and more violent than they where.


    I meant this in terms of dealing with the inmate population.
    They where low life weak sneaky shit bags ..

    For a horrific epilogue to this act of unfathomable evil, read this shit and try to keep your lunch down:

    https://www.newsweek.com/steven-haye...ai-lee-2021341

    Hayes — now Linda Mai Lee after finalizing a name change this month — said her former anger had been fueled by the question of her gender identity. Now, 61, she said she finally felt comfortable living as a woman in the Oregon State Penitentiary. Komisarjevsky is now 44. Newsweek was unable to reach him for comment.
    "For the first time in my life I am happy to be alive and do not want to die," Lee told Newsweek via email on Jan. 15, adding she intends to resume hormone replacement therapy shortly.


    Lee said that she had initially been diagnosed at the age of 16 with the condition - a feeling of distress that can happen when a person's gender identity differs from the sex they are born with. But Lee said she wasn't told of the diagnosis at the time and that "intolerance" simmered inside her for decades. Newsweek was not independently able to verify the statements.
    "I hurt, so I hurt others," she said.
    Had Lee accepted herself earlier, Hawke-Petit and her daughters may still be alive, she said.
    "I think about them every day and regret my part in what happened and all the pain I caused," Lee said. "That is why I want to use my life today to prevent someone else from doing what I did."
    Before the attack, the killers had sent text messages to each other.
    The court was told that Hayes sent a message saying: "I'm chomping at the bit to get started". Later he had asked "We still on?". "Yes" replied Komisarjevsky. "Soon?" asked Hayes. "I'm putting kid to bed," responded Komisarjevsky, referring to his own young daughter "Hold your horses". Hayes replied "Dude the horses want to get loose". He added "lol".


    There is no such thing as "justice" for the people who perpetrate this kind of vile act. About the time the youngest victim would be raising her own children, this evil fuck is giggling about his enjoyment of bras and panties and getting a far-too-kind news story in a major publication because he found a way to lie his way into being a sympathetic figure.
