Gah, what I would give to be able to afford a Garand and stay under budget. I hear they're insanely expensive.

As far as what I have already, I have a German shepherd, but she isn't much use unless the threat tries to break in.

The problem I've had is people going into my barn and messing up my tools and scaring my horses. My barn is about 100 yards away from my house.

I do think I'll be considering buying my friend's short pull shotgun for inside, tho.
