Good thread. I'm reevaluating my defense scenario currently as we should have a newborn this Wednesday. While I like the idea of a suppressed AR handy, I don't like the idea of NFA items floating around. I feel better with those in the safe. I currently have an 870 with OO loaded up, and an XD40 handy. I built up a very lightweight AR for HD use as well but I have yet to put it through its paces. While I'm in a neighborhood, I'm not terribly worried about neighbors. Not that I wouldn't think of their safety, but the layout of my house is that where from my bedroom, I cannot envision any round exiting the house when fired in a neighbors direction, lots of rooms to go through. I'd like to get some defensive 556 and do some testing on sheetrock and wood.
If, God forbid, my wife was alone and taking up a defensive position, I'd really like her to have 30rds...
I need to do some reading and thinking.
