Home defense. It's not ice cream, but...

Just like ice cream, it's not a single situation every time.

The best weapon for home defense is a well functioning brain, uninhibited by drugs (alcohol is a drug) or lack of sleep. I know you know it already, but it's something that shouldn't go without saying. There are always people learning how and why.

When the situation demands it, the best accessory weapon is having a good choice at hand.

You're both wrong. The GAU-8 is THE BEST home defense weapon. Of course, you will need an A-10 Warthog to carry it around in ....

AWR was talking about Home Defense situations such as a breakin. The scenario you’re describing is NOT the same. Quite honestly, if you go the route you’re talking for a home invasion/breakout scenario then you’re going to have a helluva lot of explaining to do in court. AWR wasn’t talking about the apocalypse and collapse of society defense situations.

I will agree . But even better than an AR for home defense is an AR Pistol, for tight quarters.
