*arme de poing pour home défense = connerie
Des millions de nord américains font justement cette connerie!
Selon certains «experts» de la question, c'est sont même les plus populaires aux USA en matière de HD.
J'aimerais avoir des explications sur ce raisonnement qui me semble plus que douteux...

Du calibre 12/50, du 38 ?
Le mieux c'est d'aller suivre un cours d'initiation à la sécurité avec les armes à feu (en tous cas pour la Canada, je ne connais pas l'équivalent pour l'Europe...) où tu vas apprendre les différents calibres, les différents mécanismes et surtout le maniement sécuritaire.
Pour finir une petite citation de Marc «Animal» Young sur les «
guns»:
When you pick up a weapon, you are taking on an awesome -- and deadly -- responsibility. Some might think of it as power. As we defined the difference between power and force elsewhere, we don't. A weapon is force, not power. And force only works in very limited circumstances and only for a moment. That makes it very ineffective in the long run.***

Keeping a gun in the houseMarc «Animal» Young
We honestly do feel that the greatest danger of gun ownership is ignorance. Ignorance, however, is a multidirectional problem. A significant part of that problem are children and teens. Children because they don't know the danger of guns, and teens because of the danger of lack of emotional control.
A bigger problem is adult ignorance about the danger of guns and children. Telling your children not to touch a gun is simply not enough.
Since you must hold yourself to higher standards of conduct when you have a firearm, it behooves you to know exactly what these standards are. Training will show you exactly how complicated this subject is and destroy many of the myths about guns that you have. More importantly, it will show you potential problems that you never would have thought about on your own, but are legitimate firearm issues.
What follows are a few suggestions about keeping guns in the house.
Doing it right will cost you money.Including the cost of the gun, expect to pay between $1500 and $2000 for what we are recommending. That is because we do not treat using a gun as a "what if" , but a "when it happens" issue. This is not to say that if you buy a gun you will automatically shoot someone -- in fact, we pray that never happens.
As we have stressed, owning a gun is a matter of responsibility. If you have the power, you must also understand the consequences of its use. That is why buying a gun should never be an "if I have to use it, I'd..." mindset, but rather a "since I now have the ability, I better know what is involved and protect myself against possible mistakes and the aftermath of its legitimate use."
Prepare, over and above the cost of the gun, to pay for training, equipment and storage.
Hiding a gun is not enoughSome people honestly believe that their children do not go through their rooms and that hiding a gun would be enough. Unfortunately, the number of children who shoot themselves or others every year disproves this idea. Kids go through their parents room, accept that as a fact of life. And by accepting that fact, you can save a child's life, possibly your own child's.
Do not think that by simply hiding a gun, or keeping the clip out of it you ensure your child's safety or that teenagers won't find it or, when emotionally upset, won't get and use it. That is a high price to pay for an assumption.
Home defense vs. collectionsA gun for home defense needs to be immediately accessible. Hunting and sport shooting collections do not.
Safes, locking cabinets and trigger guards are recommended for firearms that are not specifically purchased for home defense. Not only will they protect your collection from theft by burglars, but it will restrict access by emotional teens. (And BTW, keep the key on your keychain and with you. Hide a spare if you must, but don't tell the kids where.)
Unfortunately, these safety measures, totally undermine a gun's usefulness for home defense.
For home defenseUntil some of the high tech safety measures gun manufacturers are working on become readily available, we recommend electronic gun safes. They are rare and require some searching in order to find, but they are well worth it. These safes are keypad-controlled (on the better ones, the keypad is illuminated for night). When the combination is punched in, they swing open.
There is no fumbling with safety guard locks or searching desperately for your keys in the middle of a crisis. They are wall mounted next to your bed and unobtrusive. On the better ones, they will automatically lock down if three attempts to hack in are made. Thereby preventing a teen from sitting there punching in numbers to find the combo.
These safes allow the fully loaded and functional gun is accessible within seconds to someone who knows the combination and safely protected from teenagers, children and burglars.
Note for the paranoid: If you are the sort who feels that you must have guns scattered around the house and be accessible no matter where you are, we have only one bit of advice: Quit doing whatever you are doing that makes it likely someone would come 'gunning' for you. It's amazing how far that will go to lessening the chances of someone kicking in your door and charging in with guns blazing. If it's that bad of a neighborhood, move.
Train your children in firearm safety.Guns have a mystery about them. They are exciting and forbidden. They have an ambiance of danger and excitement.
That is until you are subjected to drawn-out, mind-numbing, repetitive training and lectures on gun safety. There is nothing so exciting and interesting to a teenager that having to go to school won't bore them to tears over. Send them to a professional course on firearm safety and procedures. It's not mom and dad lecturing it is school. And that means having to sit through a class.
A further advantage to this strategy is they know how to handle a gun safely. Also if a legitimate situation does arise, they know when they are legally justified in using it.
You get training in firearm safety, shooting tactics *and* the legal issues regarding use of lethal force.We cannot stress enough the need for this multipronged training. The reasons are legion. Although they are all under the umbrella of shooting, each of these are separate -- and equally important -- issues. Basically you're going to need to go to a specialist. There are professionals in this field, and those are the people you need to learn from.
While they are great for gun safety courses and getting your concealed carry permits, we recommend you forgo the local gunshop and firing range classes and look into firearm institutes -- especially for legal and tactical training. Although expensive, they are fully worth it.While you may have the luck to live next to one of these national experts, odds are you're going to have to travel. The problems with the local classes is that, while they are cheap and convenient, they also tend to be less professional, more oriented on the mechanical aspects of shooting, more agenda-driven and less well informed about legal trends. Nor are they particularly well trained in the tactical aspects of home defense. Yes, you can buy a DVD for both shotgun and pistol home defense from us, but that does NOT replace scenario training. If nothing else, consider the DVD a patch until you can get the hands on training.
By seeking varied training, you will not only be working to save your life, prevent your loved ones from accidentally being killed, prevent yourself from going to prison, you also will be indemnifying yourself from losing everything in court to the person you had to defend yourself against.
Is all this expensive training now looking like it is worth it?
