Only a buffalo rifle. Best rifle is an AR-15 (if you can afford one), or if you have a big budget ($10K), a fully automatic M-16. Penetration of walls is way less than compared to a .45. However, I do keep a .45 near the bed in case I am surprised at night. You probably don't want surprise me at 3 in the morning! Just a warning!

I'll be sure to phone you and warn you I am calling round for a nice friendly social visit well in advance
