Re: Shot Fired At Lou Dobbs Home

Depends on what Dobbs' house is built with. A lot of high end housing these days use steel studs instead of wood, which has been rapidly declining in quality the last couple of decades, even 'the good lumber' pretty much sucks these days, and the cost for 'the good stuff' has risen to the point where many materials are competitive cost wise. 'Siding' could be anything, including concrete and gravel slabs, these days.

Another factor is what kind of shape the firearm was in, and what type of slug was used.

I live in the middle of several very active deer leases, including 4 of my own that I lease out, and I've never had my barn or house or anything else shot up by hunters, accidentally or otherwise, and I built the place over 30 years ago.
