>Invest in a shotgun to protect your family indoors.

Shotguns aren't that great either. People who don't know what they are talking about like to say that shotguns are great because the spread is so great that you don't even have to aim. False. The spread at the ranges you have in a home invasion situation are very small. And buckshot has very deep penetration, so if you miss, the shot will be going directly through drywall and windows with no problem. Injuring people in other rooms or in the apartment/house next door would be your liability. A hand gun is infinitely superior to both options.

Yes of course it's going to go through a wall. It's going to bust a hole in it. What it won't do is punch through cleanly and continue on still a lot of velocity still behind it like most shot will.

You don't want to cause unnecessary harm; you want to stop a threat. Incapacitation is the most effective method to stop a threat.

>>
>>714139961
You're clearly too ignorant to understand that 5.56 is rather poor at penetrating walls. As compared to the heavier rounds of handguns that do not lose much velocity in walls.

Also, a pistol at fill extention is about as far from your body as an AR with 16" barrel.

The only benefits you get from using a pistol is the ability to shoot from retention and somewhat increased maneuverability.
>>
>>714144093
Modern JHPs(HSTs, GoldDots, PDX1, etc) are made to have good barrier penetration, if you want something that wont go through a wall you need something like a frangible round.

>>714144390
>>714144614
These tards that you two are quoting do not realize that it's the much greater mass behind pistol rounds COMBINED with the slower velocity that ends up causing the over penetration of non-armored targets.

im not very knowledgeable about firearms in general, although i do own a few rifles and a pistol, ive been wanting to purchase aweapon with a bit more firepower too it, from what ive seen an "AR-15" is a pretty fucking generic AR.

I don't get why you need anything more then a handgun to defend your home. It's not like there will be hordes of bandits swarming your house. No need for a 30-round military-grade assault rifle.
>>
>>714145758
Which is why you don't use M855 for your home defense.

But in general 5.56 rounds tend to lose a shit ton of velocity and tumble, thus losing more velocity when they hit an object.
>>
>>714145804

>Do they come in different calibers?

Yes

>whats a standard caliber for, say, home defense? .45

.45 ARs aren't that common. 9mm is more common. But for home defense the standard 5.56x45mm rifle round is superior to any handgun caliber due to high velocity fragmentation.

What exactly makes something "military grade"?

And what exactly makes that a bad thing for home defense?

Do you not want your weapon to go BANG every time you pull the trigger? Perhaps you prefer the thrill of not knowing whether or not you will have a failure to fire because your weapon isn't as reliable as a "military rifle".

Then you're just ignorant. All states allow some form of gun ownership but what guns you can specifically own will depend on state laws.

No, the other dude is right.

The AR-15 is not an assault rifle.

An assault rifle is: a select fire rifle that fires an intermediate caliber rifle round.


AR-15s are not select rifle. They cannot fire MORE than 1 round per trigger pull unless they have (in most cases) illegally modified.

of course an assault rifle will protect your home. But it is way overkill when a handgun can do the job just fine. Unless you are autistic you wont need more then a handgun magazine to kill an intruder. I'm sure there are reliable handguns out there.
With no apparent advantages there is simply a higher risk that some edgy depressed /b/tard will shoot up a school.

You can't really argue whether or not a pistol is "enough"

Someone will always be able to come up with a situation where it wasn't and another perfectly legal solution was called for.

Which is why no one can make a successful argument as to why you "only need" 10 rounds for your weapon.

It's not too bad. I'm not educated on the laws in other states regarding firearms but 90% of Illinois is chill. For some reason every cop in Illinois has autism so I can see where people might have trouble though. I've lived in Illinois all my life and have never met a cop taller than 5'6" kek

AR-15s are not fully automatic. If you want to fill out your forms and pay $200 you can have it modified. If you want to waste a shitload of ammo that is. But then again if you want to break the law and illegally modify it then what do you expect additional laws to do about it?And what does a "450m effective range" have to do with anything? Is it somehow useless for anything under 200m???
>>
>>714148464
first of all, in most home invasion scenarios a handgun would probably be preferable due to its size and mobility.
Second of all, by fighting for your rights of owning assault rifles, you are also helping other edgelords get their hands on one. They may shoot up a public place and kill your loved ones.
>>714148470
someone will always be able to come up with a situation for anything. You could argue that you need a nuclear warhead to fight off an alien invasion. These "possible scenarios" should not be used as arguemnts
>>
>>714148867
I was projecting what I thought your anti-AR argument would be. That's usually what faggot's mean when they try to claim an AR is ill-suited for home defense.

It's not even that simple friend. Tax stamps aren't for full auto. The registry is closed. Only way full auto stuff(besides military) gets made now is for dealer samples and other stuff that won't be sold for private ownership.

Military moved me to utah. Fucking best state for gun laws. You can open carry without a permit...just need to follow the two action rule... Concealed permits aren't expensive and roughly take a month to get. Literally can walk into the store, full out a page of info, they do a quick check and you are out the door. Also utah Concealed permits i believe have the most states that are joined in with it so travel is easy. Gotta say i love it

>>714148824

In addition, even if its not full auto, it can be modified. Also my other two arguments (450m range and 20-30 round magazine) are still in effect even if it is semi-auto

I'm not that person, you're right, he's wrong about the modifying as a non-FFL.

>>714137175
AR 15's aren't for self defense, they're for medium range (50-400 yard) targets. In the time it takes for you to bring your weapon to bear, they can easily close a gap and take it from you.

Get a shitty little .22 pistol for home defense. You won't be killing anything with it, but it also won't be going through your walls and killing your family, and it's more than enough to stop a felon in their tracks.

Idk if you noticed, but there are no iron sights. Yeah, sure, you can buy some Troy or Fagpul flip-ups, but what happens when your target is smaller than your front post? What happens when you start encountering wind, cross winds, etc?

Guns were made to efficiently move lead faster than previously capable. Just because you have a deep rooted urge to murder people it doesn't mean that innocent lead acceleration devices need to be demonized by you.

Tornados don't stray into major city limits very frequently.

But we still have a huge Nigger problem out here in Missouri. Can't escape it here.

Des Moines though....

Cars need to be able to go faster than the speed limit because if they couldn't, it would be very stressful on the engine to keep you going at top speeds all the time. You wouldn't be able to get more than a few hundred miles at highway speeds on a car that maxed out at 65.
It also helps them to accelerate quickly, which is necessary for merging onto highways.

I've personally used a .22 to disable a home invader. One in the leg and the fucker went down.
This isn't the movies/videogames, kids. Bullets fucking hurt and people aren't meat shields.

It is an absolute fact that .22lr ammo stops more home invaders than any other ammo in the USA. Period. Get some Stingers and enjoy being protected without as many of the associated risks.

Guns can't EVRR be used for good purposes. It's just an undeniable fact. Guns are pure evil and even touching one can get you killed!

im arguing aggainst long guns, not against all guns
1. you can deter a criminal with a handgun perfectly well
2. Go to a shooting range and shoot some targets if you want, no need to own one
3. non semi-automatic hunting rifles are ok
