(18 posts)AR 15s and AR 10s. Plus various other firearms.
Born and raised in the woods of Northern Michigan. I inherited a lot of guns from my grandfather.
I didn't buy my first AR until trump decided to run for reelection. His MAGAts are crazy. Shot them a bunch though.
For those of you that don't think they're excellent for self defense think again. He sucks but Rittenhouse showed how effective they are against attackers. Blew a dude's bicep apart with plain old M193 fmj. Not even a self defense round. It's what I use to punch holes in paper with.
Also they're very accurate. Boringly accurate with a red dot optic. And accurate out to 300 yards.
They're easy to handle and shoot. My wife has muscular dystrophy. Most guns hurt her to shoot. So my handguns and shotguns are out. Not her AR 15. It's light and they have hardly no recoil. She hates guns but sees what's up with the whackadoos. Yes she has her own. Set up specifically for her.
And the AR platform is a great hunting weapon. For all of the reasons above,light,accurate and reliable. Plus they're modular. Meaning they're like Legos. My AR 10 is chambered in .308. A vary good large game round. Deer hunting at distances over 100 yards. I also have an AR 15 with the .450 bushmaster upper. Big,hard hitting round for large game. Like bear and hogs.
I guess the point I'm trying to convey is if you can't beat them,join them. Fight fire with fire.
Someone comes to my door with bad intent I want to meet them with the most firepower available to me. These days they will probably be sporting the same.
I believe everyone should own an AR 15.
I vote strictly Democrat but I also believe that nobody is going to be there to help when you really need it. I'd rather be the predator than the prey.
