I agree: for a loaf of bread.

My preferred first-line home defense is a Remington 870 pump 12 gauge stoked with buckshot. (That's not to say that I don't have my 1911 handy by the bedside for quick access.)

But when I need to be away from home in an uncertain world and I feel the need, I feel more comfy carrying my Kimber 1911.
