In truth…you need quality that will not fail in the situation where your family is needing self defense or you personally need it…H&K SOCOM 45 hands down. You also need a black gun for REAL engagements with multiple assailants…DPMS chambered in 5.56 NATO. Also highly recommend the Rock Island Armory VR80 shotgun. AR platform shotgun that is magazine fed and absolutely clears the road. Street Sweeper :)
