    A 22lr will go through both sides of a refrigerator. 38 special 9mm etc.

    I'm in the process of making a 556 home defender. 10.5" barrel. Once everything gets in. I was going to buy a shotgun. But I like the short AR-15 pistols. Light and fast to bring on target. I'll be using Speer 75gr Gold Dots so refrigerators stoves even some walls, and doors will be a none factor.

    Have exactly what you are building in same 556 with Romeo 5 and light. It is very easy to handle and accurate.

    I just lock my doors and hope for the best, besides, the police are responsible for my safety. If need be, I'll make the "chuh-chuh" sound like a pump shotgun and that alone will send a home invader running for his life.
    Guns are bad..........................to the bone!

    The only answer to a criminal in your neighbors house behind a fridge is an AK. Even then it might be overkill.

    I have a .50AE
    I would never even consider using it as a in the house defense gun. You would most likely loose you hearing. And the concussion is brutal. And thats not as powerful as a 500S&W. It makes a great club though.
