    Went shopping for an AR-15 today
    Shotgun and handguns won't protect my businesses these days

    The counter was REALLY busy too. Didn't see one BLM shirt.

    I am interested in seeing the gun sales reports for this week. Anyone on the fence about buying a gun had that decision made for them over the weekend.

        2 months ago people were stockpiling toilet paper. Now it’s guns and ammo. That escalated quickly.

              I own 7 including an LE6920... if you’re in Cali I’ll sell you one at cost. I bought them after Sandy Hook and have held on to them for far too long. Only one has been fired, the LE6920 is still boxed

                    Oh snap Pavy!!!! Damn!!! I must say that's keeping it real.

                    Guns aren't cheap especially AR's from big name gun stores.. There is a time wait also in mostly ALL STATES to get them also.. Corona and Riots will probably be over when you finally get the guns and bullets.. ..

                    Nice to put the order in though even if late to the party.

                    Another white cop on black criminal death is surely to happen in the future in some State in America.. Then this starts all over again..

                      Leftist idiots like you have extreme difficulty processing information. Me not being a pro does not mean I can't afford being a pro. It isn't worth it anymore and they have a feminist hypocrite running the show here. I didn't get those $1000's of dollars ur so butthurt about by making bad investments.

                        What kind did you end up getting? I'm trying to talk my mom into getting one for home defense, she's in her mid 70's and I'm not sure if her arthritic hands can handle the recoil from her handguns anymore.

                          I didn't end up getting one there. They were severely low on inventory and the only thing they had was some kind of special competition shooting model. Going to try another place tomorrow. The salesman was saying I was about 7 weeks too late and they are hard to find all over N America right now (the high capacity ones).

                          I may have to stick with my S&W and Glock handguns for now and if necessary get nostalgic and pull out my WWII Luger. I also have a collection of swords and a spiked morning star but that isn't effective against a troop of them as we saw in Dallas. Maybe when there is one left standing I'll pull out the morning star.

                              The AR is a longer range weapon. I would rather have a Kimber 380 with the extended clip so I can use in tight close proximity situations and have a reliable firing weapon that is as small as your hand. Not saying the AR isn't reliable, but it is long and hard to swing around for multiple shots on targets that are within 10 feet of you.

                                If the attackers are that close to you should have the butt of the rifle tight under your armpit so it's harder to take away.

                                      I would unbox and clean(lube) it...along with the others 5 that have never been shot, and probably the one that has been shot...even without shooting i have to clean/lube AT LEAST once a year, to preserve the metal/seals...just my opinion

                                        Just roll with a Glock. High caliber, light and 10-15 rounds.

                                                if you're sniping guys 400 yards out lol, really depends though that .308 going to be a lot heavier and ammo going to be 2x the price, just depends on your needs I suppose

                                                  I have a modified Glock 35 for my practical shooting competition. By the time you load up, release the safety and aim your AR-15 at me I would have already unloaded 4 extended mags of my Glock 35 into your chest.

                                                  Point is it doesn't help to have a long range gun in a confined space under distress that has no good accuracy on short range and will most likely not hit the target when you are attacked by multiple people from different directions. With practice you will be able to unload 4 extended mags of the Glock 35 with accuracy in under 10 seconds and you will make it alive in the situation you are describing.

                                                        Point is it doesn't help to have a long range gun in a confined space under distress that has no good accuracy on short range and will most likely not hit the target when you are attacked by multiple people from different directions. With practice you will be able to unload 4 extended mags of the Glock 35 with accuracy in under 10 seconds and you will make it alive in the situation you are describing.
                                                        I have a glock (.45) also, I said that earlier

                                                        The reason I felt and Ar-15 would be good is the extended capacity and the visibility. My businesses have parking lots so I will see them coming but they will also see me holding the weapon from a ways off.

                                                            Weight and price dont matter, not shooting much.

                                                            Reality is the .308 is a much more lethal round

                                                                Wouldn't be cheaper to hire private security if you have a lot of businesses? I don't see on how you will be able to contact business if all day you are looking through a scope to see if black guys are coming out in droves to loot your businesses.

                                                                  A cop fuked up and they do sometimes. Going to happen a few times out of 10,000,000 arrests per year.

                                                                  Point is last year double the amount of whites were killed in police custody compared to blacks. SO this is yet another fabricated hoax that the low IQ and low impulse control idiots have reacted violently to. "Putting one on the cops" over fake race baiting bs because you and your homies can't process information effectively is not the way the second amendment was intended.
