[QUOTE="RickN, post: 1409534, member: 8854"] For home defense, I would not chamber a round for two reasons. 1) If there are kids around it is safer without one in the chamber. 2) Nothing scares the crap out of somebody like the sound of a pump action being worked in the dead of night. An example, years ago I lived out in the country in a house with hardwood floors. One night I woke up to the sound of my front door being jimmied and opened, and the sound of someone walking on the hardwood. Grabbing the 12ga I kept by the bed I jacked one in and immediately heard someone running like mad to get out of the house. [/QUOTE]
