wow
I am just a tad amazed this one has lasted so long, and with many good points made by those so obviously of different mindsets..
but me still thinks it's
offense vs defense mindset -
and mebbe (in some small part) sheepdawg vs family friendly german shepherd dawg
(GSDs could care less who "else" gets hurt, much less themselves, but it better not happen to them that they own... unless it looks helpless, be it a small bunny or a small child)
me always have been fond of GSDs, but never have considered myself the equal of any who owned me, much less any sheepdawg I ever saw at work, much even less a well trained pit bull with a 30 round mag
so... obliged to still agree w/ David E & those of a similar mindset
but keep it going... maybe I
will change my mind
and get an RPG to replace my "bedside" revolver,
can't very well say a RPG ain't more "effective" than a six shooter, or any rifle of any caliber, or any shotgun of any gauge..
recoil
is just a tad hefty, but over penetration thru walls not much of a concern, unless they be somewhere pretty close to the house, and with proper tactical training technique, RPGs really can be handed well in tight quarters, CQC
good sight radius, point real well
relatively light recoil, considering
maybe a bit loud, but under stress, adrenaline will probably negate that anyway
and
will clear a room like nothing else you can carry by yourself will, guaranteed (not even a 308 bullpup at 15 feet) !
anything within 30 feet or so of aim point pretty much qualifies as COM hit
(even if you do miss 1st round, they prolly ain't going to get back up before you reload, not even with a "single shot")
and really not that hard to conceal in whatever it is you are running to, whilst getting to it with your handgun of choice
WILL make that horde of MS-13 machete wielding gangbangers think twice about ambushing YOU again at the local quickie-stop gas-n-beer
hmmm...
mebbe I
will start parking my 30-30 by bedside
ain't over 'til the fat lady sings, and this thread might just be a record breaker
good news for me is, I do own "both" (rifles/shotguns),
if just stock up on duct tape, I will pretty much have it covered
bad news is, don't own no RPG (yet)
but the day day ain't over with yet (?)...
glancing at the clock here
and lots of ARs are going down fast in price, certain to keep dropping in price
"his" RPG, and "hers" AR ??
could happen
donchajustluv Friday nights on gun forums ?
