A shotgun would have been better. Racking rounds sends the fear of God into people. An ar-15 round could probably pierce the walls of a dozen trailers. Possibly hitting innocents.

The grandfather of a recent home invader who died from AR wounds says the AR puts the home owner at an unfair advantage.

The home invaders needed the money for their expensive hair product addiction.

The AR-15 is a basic, versatile light rifle, which is capable of being effective in a variety of situations.

The attacker gets to choose what they bring, and can tailor their tool to their plan. The defender brings what is available at the moment.

In the Battle of Rorke’s Drift, about 150 trained and outnumbered soldiers, knowing that they were likely all to be killed, between them fired roughly 19,100 rounds. They were facing 3,000 plus Zulu fighters who had just wiped out another British unit. They managed to kill 351 Zulu and wound about 500, for a hit rate of about one in twenty-three shots. If that’s how alert soldiers do when their lives are on the lime, 10 rounds is nowhere near enough.

Anyone who wants to limit defensive magazine capacity wants normal people to lose against criminals, thugs, and terrorists. Democrats are evil.

I prefer the drum or stick mag fed autoloading 12 gauge shotgun based on an AK mechanism. :P

So who's butt got hurt from the funny pic I posted and then reported it?

I thought the left had a monolopy over getting easily offended. Guess not.

shot guns are great if you live in Boston,
feel great while your are “sheltering in Place.”

in Texas shotguns work great for killing snakes.
but if you have a “front lawn” 300 yards long, you might pick an AR.

Just saying, shelter in place, in Texas that means bring more ammo.
