Who Would Win, Tarzan or Batman?

 Sorry, AWR, but ARs are best for home defense [More]

Ain't no one size fits every situation and every choice has pros and cons.

Whatever works for you...

Newbies often ask, "What is the best gun?" My answer is usually some variant of "Best gun for what?" If their answer is "I want to be able to defend my self, my home and/or my family", Then the answer changes to "The gun you're comfortable with so that you will practice regularly, to develop the skills necessary to be able to hit what you're aiming at in stressful, difficult circumstances, and so that you will have it with you when, heaven forbid, those circumstances come upon you without warning."

For outside the home, that usually involves a handgun. In my case, my Colt Mark IV Series 70 in .45ACP.

For inside the home, it turns out that the same firearms created for assaulting a building work just fine for defending a building from assault. So, just about anything on the list of what the left DOESN'T want you to have will work. The police and military have already gone to the trouble of working out some of the problems associated with the tradeoffs between power vs size, energy vs over penetration. So look at things as close as you can legally get to what your local SWAT team uses: short barreled shotguns, pistol caliber carbines, and any of the many descendants of the "granddaddy", the StG44.
