"overall it didnt seem to bad.

and for future reference. your .22 pump has a tube magazine at the bottom. your grandpa's .22 semi-auto has a seven shot magazine not a clip. and last but not least when you have a handgun that has an exposed hammer that will not **** its called double action only or DAA. if the handgun does **** but you dont have to **** it it is single double, and your grandpa'a .22 revolver that is cowboy style should be single action only. which means you have to manually **** the hammer to fire it.

and like jim said. i wouldnt raid any houses too early on. if i came home a day or two after zedpoc started and you were looting my house i would most likely shoot first and ask questions later.

the filter didnt like the work c0ck"

"i have had alot of revolvers that had hammers and were DAO. then again i trade guns like kids trade baseball cards so i may have just had more experience.

I might have forgot to mention; during the Panic I would be boarding up my doors, windows, etc. And the newer police revolvers have hammers, but they don't c0ck. It's so the cop doesn't aim at someone, get nervous, and shoot them by mistake. A c0cked handgun has a hair trigger"

"@182 and Ghost:
Really? I didn't know that. My mistake. Are than any examples that come to mind? I knew some had internal hammers, but..."

"That's cool. Thanks guys.

Like I said, I put "in my experience" in the post. Ha ha coverin' my un-knowledgable a$.

Anyway, the only major problem I see with the plan is saying that you'll loot things you need afterward. That can be easily fixed, however."

"If the .22 pump isn't reliable then you should ditch it and stick with the 20 gauge, which you should keep loaded with either 00 or 000 buck. and the damage is not the same between the 12 and the 20, but given your size the 20 would be the better choice (i've got a 20 at home for defense).

with a .22lr long range is very relative, you won't be getting shots past 100 yards accurately. Having said that a pea-shooter is better than no-shooter.

Other than that all I can suggest is avoid pills that aren't over the counter if you haven't experienced them. This is coming from somebody who began experimenting with drugs when i was about two years older than you."
