AR rifles as a "home defense" guns?

I dont know many people that survived a direct hit by a 12 GA slug... in fact I only know of one....... I do not believe the same holds true for the AR platform...

Certainly Glenn has valid points...... The fact of the matter is a 12 Ga is a extremely potent weapon up close which is the distance home defense would probably be....

Of course CNS is always vital but have no doubt a 12Ga slug through the chest is highly likely fatal CNS or not....
 
I like my shotgun and have trained with it. I'd be comfortable picking it up or my AR when I hunker down and wait for the monsters in my safe room.

Slugs are devastating, but maybe not the most responsible choice in an urban area. You REALLy need to know your backstop and what is beyond. If it isn't a dirt bank or a rock wall, that slug ain't stopping anytime soon.
