Dudleys Diary

Dudley picked up his new Remington 870 tactical 12 gauge pump shotgun the other day. It came factory equipped with a Knoxx Specops Folder recoil reducing pistol grip stock. The gun has an 18 inch barrel and has a capacity of (6+1) 2 3/4 or 3 inch magnum shells. Dudley is going to add a set of TRAK-LOCK® II Ghost Ring Sights in the near future. Of course all of the female members of Dudleys family think he is paranoid but Dudley likes to think in terms of being prepared. In the last two months, two occupied homes were invaded by armed intruders in the metro plex area. In both cases, the unarmed occupants, (husband and wife) fought back, overpowered and killed a total of two armed intruders. A third armed intruder was wounded but survived. Dudley lives in a nice established older neighborhood of single family homes but like everywhere these days, you don't have to go far to find a crime ridden neighborhood. Dudley is a big guy, 6' 2" and weighs about 245 lbs but given the fact Dudley has muscular dystrophy, Dudley does not like his odds in an unarmed physical confrontation. Dudley feels the economy is going to continue to take a nose dive and the incidents of home invasions will continue to increase if things get worse. Call me paranoid if you want but remember when seconds count, the police are only minutes away.
