This area isn’t Viet of the Nam so skip the AR.
Nor is it big city jungle so skip the Glock.
Looks like it’s the shotgun. And a good dog….

“The purpose of a pistol is to fight your way to a rifle” – loosely quoting Jeff Cooper.
All depends on your personal situation at the time. One each is a better all-round solution, with plenty of ammo.

Maybe we should start a Skool of Victim Selection Skilz. Got to be a demand for that since there seem to be soooo many that are lacking that skill. Be a better career than underwater basket weaving. Get us some of that grubermint scholarship monies.

I’ll take one (1) of each. I can always use the abomination as a trade for a real pistol.

I guess Thomas won’t be ringing in some happy bells this year.

Breaking into a cop’s home is almost as dumb as trying to flush a gun down the toilet at the Grey Bar Hotel.
