Hey guys, I was thinking about buying a gun. To Protect myself at my hotel from thieves and hooligans alike. Also to have for show when my daughter becomes a teenager and I need to point it at any and all of her Boyfriends. Yet I am a beginner and will need to go to a shooting range before I bring it back for safekeeping. What is a good gun that packs a good amount of juice, looks flashy, but will not make me bounce off the walls after firing it?

Can't go wrong with a 1911 .45, has worked for years. Colts are too expensive, try Springfield or other make. Best gun for protecting a house however is a shotgun with a short (24 or 26 inch) barrel. Don't have to be a marksman to hit somebody with it, just point and click.

Except your bound to put half a dozen pieces of buckshot through your wall, floor, furniture, etc. and repaint the ceiling after you scrub the pieces of him off it.

I'm not that familiar with a lot of handguns, but I have a lot of experience with the 1911 .45 and its solid, reliable, and will stop someone on the first shot. But I think it may have a little too much kick for what you are looking for, so try a 9mm Baretta and see if you like it - it seems like a good compromise.

      https://www.drafttek.com/NFL-Trade-Value-Chart.asp Going by this chart that won’t get it done, at all.  both of our 5th rounders are worth 56, total.    The 51st is valued at 390. Moving to 41 takes 100 points. In the second where we are, it is basically 10 points per slot. You can get in front of TB for 60 points. Baltimore at 45.  Which who would do that for 56 points? You are on a wing and a prayer.    To realistically have a good shot at these top guys, outside of Golday, it is gonna take at least 100 points, I am thinking.  And when they go, Golday’s market probably gets a lot hotter.  Just going by the rankings/valuations, I am thinking if you realistically want to assure you get your guy it will take trading back in the first. Which is why I have been saying to do that if we can.  For example 19 is valued at 875. 21 is 800. That, plus one of the 5ths gets you to 100 points which you theoretically could use to get to 41.    I think there are going to be several good options for us at 19, if we are good with taking what is left at 21-23 we can get a good player plus fund a trade up for one of these LBs which is what I am thinking makes sense.

      I'm just letting everyone know he's on the list in the second tier, not that I think it gets there because Donovan wants the job.  UNC is waiting on Lloyd and Arizona's run to end, if that doesn't work out then Donovan is likely the new head coach.
