I haven't ever bought .45 ammo before, since the .45 I have came with 200 rounds of federal FMJ ammo. I was just curious what you guys would recommend for a home defense round? Price isn't a factor.
It really depends on how much you want to spend. AR 15's can be had as low as $800 and as much as several thousand. From my shooting experience, I will run down a couple of my favorites that you may want to check out.
HK MR556 (416) - So I am a bit biased towards HK's... but for good reason...
If they are coming inside my home? Castle Doctrine. If a burglar is willing to take the risk of breaking into a home, you have no way of knowing how far they will be willing to take it.
When I am purchasing a gun I will most likely be willing to drive 2 or 3 hours. It depends on what the item is, and if I could get it closer (even if it means spending a couple extra $$$)

I am a lot like you. before buying a firearm I thoroughly research it, read reviews, and rent one at the range to test fire. The biggest thing that I consider when purchasing a new firearm is it's reliability. I ask myself "Is this a gun that I can have full confidence that it will work when...
I like the Walther P22. I had the opportunity of shooting this for the first time last weekend. Very reliable, I had no problems at all with it's operation. It was also quite accurate. Definitely a fun gun for plinking at the range with!
There are a couple 9mm's that I would highly recommend. One would be the HK USPc 9mm. This firearm is a little higher on the price spectrum, however it is state of the art. THe recoil system implements duel springs, making it a very soft shooting gun, while it's size makes it ideal for...
As an upcoming college student, I fully support this bill. I can sympathize with the concerns of the opposition of this bill; however, by not passing this legislation, we are indirectly putting the lives of students at risk.
