It says nothing about size on it sorry but I’m assuming larger or extra large because I’m 6’3 285 and it fits me no problem and it’s got lots of adjustment . -
Glad to meet you, Compass! I hope something you like turns up.

Situations may vary, but most of the time a rifle is not the best home-defense choice. Over penetration is a real concern with the bullet very capable of passing through multiple walls inside the house and exiting the house. Either can strike an unintended target you couldn't see but are still responsible for. It's also harder to move through a confined space with a rifle. The AR platform makes that somewhat easier with collapsible stocks and usually a significantly shorter overall length compared to a traditional hunting rifle. Home layout, construction, and location are variables unique to each person, so YMMV. But an AR-15 is a very good rifle for lots of different things and can be kitted out to your personal tastes pretty easily. +1 to Palmetto State. As for the alphabet folks, there are north of 20 million AR-15s in the USA. They simply can't knock on that many doors. If there ever is a gun grab, it won't come in the form of random door knockers. But if you really don't want a paper trail, buy private sale in Tennessee. A great way to do that is to become a member here on TGO and post a WANT TO BUY ad in the TGO Trading Post describing what you want and your budget.

You all say that, but there was a case here in Knox County, in the 90s, where homeowner caught a Peeping Tom peering through his daughter’s window. He stepped out on the porch, the Peeping Tom saw him turned and ran and was shot in the back and died. The homeowner never saw court. However, after watching the video, this home owner is a complete moron and deserves what’s coming.

Rifle is traded. Thanks to everyone who showed interest.

Ar15s are fantastic. My HDG is an 11.5" suppressed 5.56 with an Aimpoint. 77gr razor core. I've killed a few deer with this gun. I would hesitate to grab my 16" or 18" with 62gr tsx for any deer. I've killed a bunch of hogs with the 18". Really all about the ammo. Ar15s are really easy for teaching kids how to shoot. The gun can be fitted to their size and grow with them. I do keep a 14" 870 with 8 pellet Federal flight control around also.

I personally don’t think too much of AR’s for hunting or home defense if we’re talking .223/5.56mm, but I don’t hunt and in my abode a rifle is inappropriate. If it’s reached obsession point, Just go to Palmetto State Armory’s website and order the cheapest one they have and get it out of your system for $500-$600, maybe less. They make very serviceable, quality, and accurate weapons. Don’t fret about politics, society, or alphabets…that’s all overrated.

If I wuz gonna split between hunting home defense, I would recommend a Palmetto State Arms 300 BO carbine. They are cheap. They work well, and they are a man stopper n light game getter. The price would be low, and ya could save some dollars n buy a good trigger to drop into it ( or any other AR ) and maybe it a bunch more usable for both jobs. The ammo is about as reasonable as 556 if ya shop around. Also, there are states where ya can't hunt large game with a 22 caliber. leroy.

My first question for you is, what do you use now for home defense? Second question is, what do you use to hunt with?

For my handgun of choice, I am looking at the Tisas PX9 Tactical Night Stalker. Any of you have any experience with it? Everything I am reading about Tisas shows them as a great choice for my first EDC handgun.
