Y’all are making it hard for me to justify getting into a new caliber. I may just stick with the FNX for inside the house, and have a suppressed 5.56 on a sling in case I have to move outside.

Maybe I’ll take the money I just saved and buy one of those MP5 clones. Always wanted a roller lock…
A new caliber needs no justification!! Just get them and own it !!! :cool:

Arms length grab Springfield Range officer 45acp loaded with 9rnds of Underwood 180gr+P jhp
Within two steps of the front door, a Mossberg 930 tac loaded with one " less than lethal" rubber ball, some#4 buck, a couple#1buck and one BRI hardened antimony Sabot round
The shotgun theory is dissuade their bad decision, if that dont work, start making hamburger, and be able to taķe out their engine block so their buddies cant leave.
If I have to break out the 7.62x39 AR things are gonna get wild.

12g with either buckshot or a combo round like the pdx1.
Your neighbors will thank you.
Additionally, you don’t have to worry AS MUCH about shot placement, which is nice if a break in happens while you’re asleep and trying to adjust to the chaos as you awake.
