Be careful not to dox yourself. Talking about and owning guns obviously isn’t illegal, but that doesn’t mean some chud won’t try to use information against you.

We highly recommend using a throwaway when asking for or giving advice that may include identifying information. Using Tor doesn’t hurt.

Yeah we’re on the same page as far as ARs go. Really hard to beat the versatility, effectiveness, an usability of an AR.

Been a while since I looked up pen tests, and I don’t have time right now since I’m at work, but iirc the right weight buckshot had similar or less penetration than other home defense rounds. But I may be misremembering. I’ll check later today.

Mostly just a question of AR > Shotgun > Handgun or AR > Handgun > Shotgun, I guess.

“Under no pretext"

Rules (Under review):

1. NO BUYING, SELLING OR TRADING of guns or accessories. Take that to Reddit and /r/GunAccessoriesForSale or Armslist.com
1. Censor all personally identifiable information in posts including serial numbers on firearms.
1. Any post or comment advocating illegal action will be removed and the poster warned. A second infraction will result in a ban.
1. Unironically suggesting the SKS as a usable rifle in the 21st Century when there are things like the AK and AR that cost only a bit more might result in a ban, it depends on how we feel.
1. Discussion of hunting is acceptable but please put “CW: hunting” in post titles. Debating the ethicality of hunting is also fine, but keep it civil and don’t derail other people’s threads.
