And as for uses... to be honest, Im not looking for any kind of self defense. That and If I brought a gun into the house with our 3yo it would start ww3.

My plan atm is to get the .22Lr

My wife has told me that back when she was younger and single she loved to go shooting. My first step is to get her back to the range to re-kindle things.

Then ill take it from there.

That and my neighborhood so far knock on wood has been nice. Im not being naive and know anything can happen anywhere.

But I have good spidey sense and the whole place is a huge condo community. Lights everywhere and 95 percent of the population is 65 plus. Im not fearing any old timers and young guys walkin around at night arouse suspision.
