Biden promises a shotgun will save your life

 The news is ablaze with the story of Joe Biden at the Facebook town hall meeting and his comments on shotguns vs. AR-15s. The right wing has a few different spins on what was said and what it means. The left has little to say in defense. The Key points made are:
 Biden says use a double barrel shotgun. It is better for home defense.
 Biden says an AR is harder to aim and harder to use. (comment aimed mostly at women)
 Although it is illegal to discharge a firearm in city limits he says to shoot two rounds in the air.

Here is why I think that shows that Biden knows very little about home defense, rifles, pistols, and least of all, Shotguns.

 If you use a shotgun  in a home invasion, you are limiting your mobility and ability inside your home. The idea that it is the best thing to grab does not make the most sense.
 If the invader truly is a bad guy, blasting off two rounds from a shotgun (not at the attacker) is only going to let the attacker know your exact location. Your disarmed location.
 "… You don't need an AR-15 — it's harder to aim, it's harder to use, and in fact you don't need 30 rounds to protect yourself. Buy a shotgun! Buy a shotgun!".... WELL.... Not every attacker or home invader is outside your house when you find them. Speaking of THEM, it is not always one person you have to defend against. Remember Ruby Ridge? If you have half a dozen people attacking your home, or 20, or more...  Which do you feel would be harder to aim, harder to use at 50 yards? 100 yards?  My double barrel shotgun is not the first choice in my mind to defend against someone shooting at me from the trees at the end of the field. 
 I have a test for you (it gives you yet another excuse to go shooting. Like you need one?) Take a double barrel shotgun with number 6 shot, and an AR-15 out to your range. Set up a couple targets at 100 yards. Shoot at one with the shotgun and one with the AR-15 (or AR-10, I don't discriminate). See which is more effective at 100 yards.
 Sorry Joe Biden, but we do not all have secret service at our house to come running to the aid of our wives with assault rifles when they hear gunshots.

Woman conceal carry options. (part 1)

What is a good concealment technique for women? 
  This is a question we get a lot. Many instructors have guns they recommend for women, I still say try them out, try a bunch, and practice often. Handle a hundred guns at gun stores and shows. Pick 5-10 that feel great in your hand, and then go to a range or a friend and shoot the hell out of them. Don't spend $300-$1500 on a handgun and then regret it.

You have your gun, now how do you conceal it.
   This post would be too long and boring if I talked about every concealment technique so we will cover one or two at a time.


                                    The Flash Bang

The Flash Bang is a great design for women who want more option to carry. 1) Don't let your wardrobe prevent you from carrying. 2) Don't let carrying prevent you from dressing how you like. My wife loves the Flash Bang. There are many videos of this holster being demonstrated on YouTube.
  My daughter does not love it quite as much. The only downside I see to the Flash Bang is that you pretty much have eto have more than an "A" cup to conceal effectively.

If you watch the demos, and practice, you do not really need to worry about exposing yourself with this holster. And, if you have to use your gun you probably would not care anyway.

If the Flash Bang is not right for you, there are many other options.
