Anyone else carry an AR pistol in your vehicle in case SHTF with the nonsense going on lately? And if so, is .223 legal and not 5.56? I know the law states nothing larger than .45 even though .45 ACP is a hair more and gets by.
How is the .45ACP a hair more?
It's really .451 ?
You could just keep a full size AR in the vehicle with you if you wanted. I'm not sure what your talking about with .45 caliber carry guns though. There are several cartridges that fall into .45 caliber. Exact measuring of the projectile diameter isn't necessary.
I don't think that an AR pistol fits the definition of a pistol as defined in the SDA. I do believe the SDA allows a permitted person to transport in a vehicle a rifle or shotgun that is magazine loaded but not with a round chambered.
I think it's a fair thing to question at this point, due to the fact that they consider anything with a pistol buffer assembly and under such a length barrel to be considered a pistol, not to mention the ammo meeting within the requirements of not exceeding the size limitations. I've been told by a few people this is legal for CCW holders. As much as I appreciate my right to carry a pistol, with current events, I would much appreciate my odds with such a thing as a back up/
.223 and 5.56 use different units of measurements
.45 and .223 use the same unit of measurement (fraction of an inch)
5.56 is the Metric unit of measurement of the .223
Kinda what I was getting at and trying to learn the differences on the calibers as I am learning on rifle calibers and if both are legal. Does anyone on this forum carry an AR as a SHTF scenario with all of this terrorism attacks as of lately?
What exactly would you do with an AR in your car?
AR pistol in my car? Why?
If I'm going to carry an AR in the car, it'll be a rifle.
