QUOTE(mirocu @ Feb 12 2017, 12:31 PM) Wasn't he the one who shot someone from the bathtub? Right. He was taking a bath and this bounty killer comes waltzing in talking about how he was going to finally kill him (he had been hunting Tuco since the beginning of the film). Tuco shoots him while he's talking and then comments with the words on the meme above. This post has been edited by TheCheshireKhajiit: Feb 12 2017, 07:38 PM

QUOTE(mirocu @ Feb 12 2017, 12:42 PM) I forget; does Khajiit have guns himself?
One or two He has a double barrel (side by side) 20 gauge that shoots the "magnum" shells (not sure what it's actually called but Khajiit has heard it referred to as "high brass" also). Have that loaded with buckshot. Also have a "Saturday Night Special", which is a snub nosed .38. That's actually a beautiful gun. It's blued black with pearl grips!

QUOTE(mirocu @ Feb 12 2017, 12:57 PM) Ah, the Saturday Night Special. First gun obtained in VtM:B Ha! Indeed! QUOTE(mirocu @ Feb 12 2017, 12:57 PM) And yeah, high brass. Have a few of those too. Basically means the higher the brass a shell has, the more gunpowder and therefore power it has.
Khajiit wouldn't want to be on the business end of my shotgun! This one would really like to upgrade to a 12guage pump or semiauto though.

QUOTE(mirocu @ Feb 12 2017, 01:11 PM) A 20 gauge is not a bad choice for home defense. Especially if it takes magnum rounds.
One advantage a double barrel has over a pump is the fact you don't have to do anything other than pulling the trigger to sling two shots, something that's very advantageous in a stressful situation. It even has an advantage over a semi in regards to reliability. Don't know how many times I've seen semiauto shotguns fail to reload on the skeet range due to slight variations in the shells. But I reckon they are reliable enough and if you can fit several rounds in the mag that's good.
But if you're going with a semi shotgun, make sure to experiment which kind of shell it likes best before having it as your primary defense weapon.
Khajiit used to dove hunt with a semi auto Winchester 12guage and had zero problems with it. Dad was very insistent on cleaning practices though, lol. This one is sure the double barrel would do fine especially when paired with the .38. and my tomahawk, lol. Would love one of these though!

QUOTE(mirocu @ Feb 12 2017, 01:25 PM) Yeah, if you're going with a pump action you can barely do any better than with the Mossberg 590 A1. Would get it myself if I didn't already the Winchester Turkey. Pretty good quality gun as well. Like the Mossberg it has steel-to-steel lockup in an alloy receiver, only one extractor though. Really cool system too where as soon as the trigger has released the firing pin, the gun prepares for reload by initiating release of the lockup (not before the gun goes off though obviously) which makes the Turkey one of the fastest pumps out there, at least at the time it came out. The slogan goes "the pump that's so fast it thinks it's a semiauto" That sounds like a winner! Winchester is a very respected and storied brand too. Forgot to mention Khajiit's little Franchi 20guage pump! It's too long for a good home defense gun but it will tear up some skeet!

QUOTE(mirocu @ Feb 12 2017, 01:37 PM) My Turkey is long too as it's a hunting gun but it's not impossible for home defense. At least I wouldn't not pick it up if my life depended on it just because it's long.
28" barrel, what's on your pump?
Lol, never measured Khajiit's pump's barrel It's pretty long though, probably in the 26-28in range This post has been edited by TheCheshireKhajiit: Feb 12 2017, 08:51 PM

QUOTE(mirocu @ Feb 12 2017, 01:56 PM) Yeah, not ideal for home defense but it's doable. Point blank range is also a distance between you and the aggressor This is true.

QUOTE(mirocu @ Feb 12 2017, 02:17 PM) And at that range I doubt it really matters much whether it's a 12 gauge or a 20 gauge But by god let's hope it never comes to that. Anyway, what else is new?
