What is the best .223 for tactical minded home owners

This is what  you need. 

I love that guy.

There is no way in hell I would ever shoot my AR in the house. Thats what my 18" mossberg is for. I dont even want to shoot a pistol in the house bc Id go deaf. Well.. wouldnt want to shoot anything in the house but if I had to I would grab my shotgun. .223 has way too much velocity, penetration, and muzzle blast. I keep 12ga #4 buck loaded up. Sometimes I will have my 9mm on the nightstand but really that would be like a backup if for some reason I ran out of buckshot I would have 17 more rounds of 9mm. Pretty sure in the off chance I ever do need to shoot, 1 shot of buckshot will do the trick per invader.

It don't shoot any straighter, no faster, it don't run any cleaner, but it did cost a bunch more. So your cup don't hold juice.

I believe the word you are looking for is: doesn't.

Don't = Do not
Doesn't = Does not.


No disrespect intended.  Your post was just hard to read.

I've used some of the low flash ammo and it's amazing, hardly noticeable in the dark.

Unless I lived way, way out there I wouldn't be using an AR inside.  That's the kind of round that might kill a neighbor several walls away..  Plus I remember my M16 having a pretty sharp bark

Hi-Cap 9mm with high quality ammo and a 12ga for me.

9m will penetrate more walls than .223.

9m will penetrate more walls than .223. 

That has been proven but only with specific ammo, buckshot also penetrated further in that test.

Rasbo, if you get one and need some larger mags let me know. I have a few extra.

If you're wanting a hobby gun Rasbo thats reliable and a good shooter I've heard great things about Stag arms and will be selling their stuff here in a few months.  If you want to wait till April I can hook you up with lots of AR gear and will give you a decent discount.

For the cats meow in AR uppers/lowers check out Seekins Precision.  Their new rails are awesome as well!  Will also be setup as a dealer for them...  PM me if you want more info.
