Discuss: CA Legal and fully functional Home Defense Carbine

[Salty]

Well after messing around with a lot of firearms and doing a bit of research we actually ended up going with a shotgun as some of you suggested. In 10 days a Mossberg 930 tactical will be ours. It fits us a lot better than our 500, should recoil less, faster follow ups, etc, etc, etc. We're also going to order a longer barrel for clays since that seems to be the kind of shooting we both enjoy the most.

I'll still be gettin' a carbine as a fun gun one of these days though.

Good choice. make sure you start at a local range practicing the basics, then go outside and blast away. Make sure both of you blast away a lot so you BOTH know it well. Buy a lot of man sized targets, dont just shoot at clays.

Here's my two corroded used pennys. While I am a much bigger fan of the 7.62x39 round for under 200 yard applications, you'd be much better served with a 5.56 due to overpenetration issues with the x39 round in your subdivision. I would recommend either a mini-14 or a Saiga with the bullet guide in 5.45x39 (? not sure exactly what the com bloc .223 equivalent is). The Saiga / AK-74 mags are cheap and ammo is plentiful. If you're put off or uncomftorable with corrosive ammo, go with the 5.56 mini-14.

saiga has a .223 that shoots .556 only $399. can't beat that.

.556 would be a HUGE round! Bigger then a .50 by .056

thats a new work around for the 50BMG ban =D
