Home Defense Caliber Poll

[Pokem807]

I posted a question in the ammo/reloading section which led to this poll.

The .300 blackout would be a 7.5” AR, and the .45 acp would be either a PCC or AR with a barrel of similar length. Whatever I end up with will host a Dead Air Primal.

I already have .45 stacked pretty deep, but would have to buy .300 BO. Since it’s for HD, I would only run subsonic ammo in the .300 BO.

My current night stand gun is an FNX-45 Tactical.

Any other options or advice appreciated.

9x19 pistol suppressed, to a 5.56 AR SBR suppressed backed up by a 12ga

.45 AARP definitely between those two calibers

I actually think a shotty is better though.

I'm in for some pie!!

From those choices for me...pie.

For you, sounds like 45 makes sense.

I'm glad we got the latest "what caliber for home defense" thread for the week out of the way early...

Somebody say pie.... you cook it and I'll stay up all night eating it and guarding you while you sleep.

Outside of pie and my registered lethal weapons , I'd prolly use a rifle and/or one of my pistols (Various Calibers). Maybe one of my shotguns. Like that knife kung fu guy off Forged-in-Fire says, "it will kill".
