Alot of people like to classify the 12Ga as a premier defense weapons, for home in most instances.
i just enjoy the stability of having 30 rounds in one mag and then 4 more right behind that, instead of having to take time to reload my shotgun.
But i agree i'm not likely to grab a shotgun either for defense. Which is why i'm building my AR, i just enjoy the stability of having 30 rounds in one mag and then 4 more right behind that, instead of having to take time to reload my shotgun. And range isn't a worry with the AR.
At what range do you think you will be engaging someone for "defense"?
The long range capability of the carbine is always being debated, but for close up stuff. It's the champ
Could be that more people like the security of more rounds or availability of being able to load fast/quicker (30 round mag)in a carbine than a SG even with mag capacity onesMaybe for you that is the case, but not for me. My choices would be 1) shotgun/00 buck, 2) .45 ACP. I'd rather make big holes in the BG than small ones. Each of the 8 or 9 pellets from the SG is going to make twice as big a hole as the .223.

I wonder if they cover using birdshot for personal protection.
