LOL someone had some fun with the clothes iron :smilelol5: Every barracks room I ever laid my head down in had a similar burn on the floor. Two days after our barracks got new carpet, there were some shenanigans while my roomie was ironing his uniform. Our behinds were a little raw after having bee...

I want to get a home defense shotgun, but I don't know where to start. I've looked up a couple things online, and I wanted to get some advice from the more experienced folks. I was looking at the Benelli M4 (MSRP $1200-$1400), and a Remington 870 ($ A lot less). Now, when it comes to shotguns, I'm p...
