I'm looking to beef up my home securty, I currently have a 20 gauge sawed off single shot shotgun and wanted to get a pump. (I live in a bad part of town, break in's are common)

I'm looking to get something used, unless anyone have any objections, I don't have alot of money, probably 200 max to spend on a used pump shotgun. I've gone by some pawn shops, but I have no idea what to look for, how to tell if they're good or not, or anything. Obviously the 10's and 12's are more expensive because they've got more kick I believe. I just don't know how to tell if a gun has been abused or if its in good shape, etc.

I've got little to no knowledge of guns, I know calibers/gauges a bit, but that's it. I don't want anything too long, shorter pump shotgun that's pretty cheap would be great. Any recommendations for a certain gauge/style gun for home protection?

Thanks everyone!

What are the differences in these rods. I understand that the "inshore" version is for saltwater. But are there material differences?

Only reason I ask is that I need a two-piece for saltwater, and the "inshore" only comes in one. Thanks.

I have a Ithaca 10 gage double barrel shotgun, I think in was made in 1917. Does have a dog engraved on both sides of chamber. I asked where to the field grade stamp, if there was one or where or who do I ask about finding this. One answer was to check trigger guard, but there was not a stamp there. Does anyone have an idea???? Please help

I am considering one of these two guns as my primary conceal/carry weapon. Can anyone tell me if they have used them, and if they like them or not? Thanks!

A friend of mine has a pistol and when I turn 21 he said he would sell it to me, and I am planning on getting a protection permit and hunting permit to carry the pistol.

Now when I was 8 or 9 my parents put me in a mental institution because they thought I was trying to commit suicide which I wasn't anyway would that affect me when I go to get the permits?

I am 19 years old now but would that still be on my record and affect me any?

Thanks =]

I was reading an article about the new family of WSM cartridges introduced a few years back.

It said that the objective was to create a family of cartridges that are capable of being chambered in a "short action" rifle vs. a "long action". What does this mean with respect to a bolt action rifle?

What is the difference and what is the advantage of one over the other?

Thanks

... I know when you are in the woods and lost you can look at the side of the tree that has the moss on it and tell north from south.

... Which side of the tree does the moss grow on?

I recently purchased a Smith & Wesson M&P in 9mm, and I want to carry it as a sidearm when hunting, but I think the max allowable capacity for hunting is 9 total. The magazine currently holds 17. I would like it to be a temporary modification, because they are very expensive mags. Any Ideas?

I'm on a budget of under $400 for a previously owned rifle for deer hunting. My first choice would be a 30-06, then .308.

Please give caliber/brand/model suggestions. Thanks.

He's 5'6" but I dont know if height has anything to do with length of the pole. The two I am considering are a 6'6" Shimano AX Spinning combo (http://www.sportsmansguide.com/net/cb/cb.aspx?a=336178&kwtid=238543) and a 5'6" South Bend Microlite R2F Panfish Spin Cast (cant find a link). I dont know what any of these words mean and I dont know what to look for! He will probably be fishing mostly in local freshwater lakes for small bass and trout. Please help!!!
