Topic: I Want This Weapon!! 5

Well, I'd like it for home defense, but I can think of two guns that top all for that...
my bro's .357 magnum (soon to be mine, I hope)
and an H&K MPK.

Both of those, for when you absolutely, positively, have to blow away every intruder in your home.

I'd say reloading would be a huge pain in combat, and weight would become a concern somewhere along the line. If I want close in fire support like that, we have things like the M-249 or LSW.

I don't use it for home defense, but I have a Security Six that I have a lot of fun with it at the range. I'd be a bit too concerned with over penetration to use it at home.

I'd agree on overpenatration if and only if I was living in a Mr. Rogers Neighborhood version of the world. When you need to blow away someone quick, fast, and in a hurry, I'm pretty sure you wouldn't care about the walls. Especially if you're a bachelor or have no one else in the house with you at the time.

HAha! It's all about destruction!

That's it. If someone enters my house with intent to do harm, I want that sucker in pieces. Which is why I wouldn't mind picking up an AA-12.
