Tried to ignore it to no avail..... Handled it for a few minutes, then walked out the door $3K poorer after NIC, BUT with a broad grin.... It's now my favorite "pistol-carbine" (?)..... Already had many mags and only had to add a few "upgrades".... When first on the market, I think they ran about $2,700, but goin' for about $3K now.....Well worth it......

The best home defense gun is the one you can afford to buy and practice with at least monthly. It is the gun you can hit with reliably on a center mass target at distances comparable to your home. For most people the MP5 is entirely out of reach just on dollars and cents. For some, a Hi-Point is perfect for the same reason.

I've got an idea for your next video: what's the best gun to defend yourself against FPV drones ? This question has become a hot topic since the war in Ukraine. It seems that troops are not equipped with appropriate weapons to shoot at drones or falling bombs. It would be interesting to test this by asking a friend to try to approach you with a drone while you try to shoot it down before it gets too close. It would be interesting to see which weapon is better and how difficult it is to destroy small drones.
