I found myself in need of a personal defense weapon after receiving a death threat from a member of organized crime. I ended up with an AR pistol for a few reasons. One of the biggest reason is it qualifies as a handgun and I can carry it loaded and concealed. A concealed loaded rifle is not an option in my area. Other reasons are the fact that I have ammo for an AR, I already know how to operate an AR and it was available.

[@OutsideTheTargetDemographic]

A year ago, my cousin told me he got an AR pistol. "Why would you do that?" ignorant me asked. "More blast, more noise, less ballistics, less range, same price as a rifle? No thanks." "You can legally keep a pistol loaded in your car with your CHL." I now have two. As you said, caliber redundancy, mag redundancy, optic-ready, ~2700fps out of a 10.5" barrel, muscle memory/ergos/manual of arms transfer, and my understanding is you could swap a longer upper onto the "pistol" and essentially carry a rifle loaded. 👍

[@finngamesknudson1457]

@@OutsideTheTargetDemographic - With a 10.5” barrel your AR is probably a bit over 26”, which makes it a firearm rather than a pistol. May want to double check your local laws.

Particularly good tool for elderly, small stature or infirm individuals.

I have a High Standard K1201 Riot model that has a full 18.5" barrel and 6 shot mag and the same birdshead style grip. It's just 4.5" longer than a shockwave, but with LOTS of practice over the years I've owned it, I can shoot MAYBE 80% as good a Paul, when hip firing. Firing from the eye line as he demonstrates I'm about the same. But it's taken 16 years and hundreds of boxes of shells to get that good.

[@burnyburnoutze2nd]

I literally had to explain to a guy that a Shockwave is nowhere near as effective as a stocked shotgun in most situations primarily because it's so difficult to use in comparison. Anyone can use a stocked shotgun with minimal training in comparison to shooting a pistol grip or Shockwave shotgun in the same circumstances. Guy then argued it's better for CQB because of its size and lack of stock. I called him out on that crap by asking if he's ever trained in actual CQB tactics. Silence.

I learn so much in a short amount of time from him and he just makes sense - especially the shotgun comparison and how much of your body is exposed in the various cover situations. The velocity difference between the pistol and his PCC were very enlightening as well. I have a Rossi .357 mag lever-action rifle and love how Paul took out his Rossi coach gun. So many guys smash Rossi as a whole, which I get because of their lack “Henry-level” finishes and reliability etc. Was just nice to see Paul Harrell owning and relying on a Rossi shotgun.

[@edbecka233]

Two of my leverguns are Rossis, two are "80s Brownings and one is a Winchester. The Browings are absolutely "up to" the Winchester and the Rossis are not that far below. One Rossi is recent and the other is a bit older, not the Puma era but not the current bolt-safety type. The older Rossi is noticeably nicer and smoother than the newer one; the newer one I had to order the Steve's Gunz video and some of his parts, including his peep aperture that replaces the stupid bolt safety, and since I "gave it the treatment" it's become very useable, smooth and dependable. I recommend the Steve's treatment to anyone with a newer Rossi levergun.

I love my Extar EP9 I got the nice little carry case with it I’ve walked it through the lobby of multiple hotels and brought it with me on many camping trips to set next to the bed in the tent. My wife is pretty surgical with it too so it’s easy to use for all the people in my home.

Your guidelines are of great use in helping make a choice. If one keeps the general type suggested rather than a particular model, then it can be applied to what is available in one's particular area. As always Paul, I both enjoy and respect your very informed opinion. Spent half day in church today praying for those left behind and for our country, rest watching you and Hickok, to be in at least the virtual presence of honorable men. Today the last US military left Kabul. I am heartbroken. Thanks for all you do. Best wishes. CW4 Karl S.

[@totallyfrozen]

23:33 I took a multi-state road trip of roughly 4,000 miles several years ago. The overnight/motel (“brief case”) gun I used for the trip was a 12ga. coach gun (double barrel, 20” barrels, hammerless). Less capacity than any other firearms I own, but the power is significant and it comes into service quickly while at very short indoor distances it’s accurate enough. Additionally, while I didn’t have the time to research all the local firearms laws of the places I was traveling through, I reasoned that in most places in the USA a shotgun with a barrel 20” or longer is legal. Also, it cannot be considered to have a high capacity magazine, it’s not semi-auto, and it’s not a long range “sniper” weapon. So I assumed that if I had to use it, and I got in legal trouble, my firearm selection would not add extra legal trouble to me. Sound logic? I don’t know. It was the best I could figure at the time.

Hi, I'm a LT in the What If Brigade. I'll have to add that the people that have backpack guns are often the people prepared for combat in specific situations other than just going about a normal day with a concealed carry. I used to deliver pizzas and when I started that job, a more seasoned co worker informed me that it's against store policy to to carry a gun inside, so instead of just concealing his pistol really well, he put it in a backpack in his passenger seat and made sure it was unzipped when he went to more colorful parts of town where delivery boys had been robbed before. When he got out of the car to do the delivery, he slung the backpack on his shoulder like in a 90's college movie and was still able to quickly get the gun. I'd just like to say *what if* real quick here.

I lived up in the hills of central California for 6 months a few years ago, and one of the things I learned while there is that the deer know when hunting season is. They'll walk around brazenly through neighborhoods right up until the weekend before the season opens. They'll be non-existent for the duration, and then back again the weekend after deer season ends. Clearly, they appear to behave similarly where Mr. Harrell is.

[@clarkevanmeter2676]

In Iowa they move into the residential neighborhoods during hunting season. There have been more deer than dogs here for 30 years.

I'm from Michigan. The deer know when season is on too. And they mock you pre and post season. Apparently, by Mr Harrell's example, the most effective method is to desensitize the deer to frequent gun fire.

Kel Tec has some interesting offerings for a stowable weapon. The Sub 2k, and su16 being a few. They tend to have a hit and miss reputation for reliability though. It would be neat to see Paul evaluate some of those at some point. I've had a gen 1 Sub 2k in Glock 9mm since it first came out. Mine can be picky with some ammunition, and I once had an aftermarket 9mm/.40 cal extended magazine that caused constant malfunctions. But if I cleaned it even semi regularly, and used an actual glock magazine, and decent enough ammo, it's been "mostly" reliable. I don't understand when people claim to have a weapon that "has never" jammed. The only firearms I've ever used that never had any malfunctions on me were a break open shotgun and a cap and ball muzzle loader. Everything else from Glocks to Browning HP's, Beretta shotguns and pistols, Walther pistols, and of course Kel Tecs, ect, have had "some" kind of malfunction. And I don't even shoot that much. Ever since I was a kid, I just thought that dealing with occasional malfunctions of various sorts was just part of using firearms. I've only ever seen two that were serious enough to not be remedied by running the action a few times, and both were Glocks. One was a .40 cal police service gun. The entire back end of the fired case was torn off leaving just the tube in the chamber, and then another round fed up into that and became totally jammed before going fully into battery. I'm guessing that was more a fault of the ammo though. They were reloads that felt pretty stout. I don't know how common it is for people to reload .40, or if it's something the police do for training, but we were given them by a guy at the range at the police academy. I was only like 9 at the time, so I don't remember all the details, I was just enthused about being at the police academy. The other big malfuntion was when my Dad and I were at a range with another officer friend, and the friend was shooting his Glock, and then started looking down at the ground, searching for something. When my Dad inquired as to what his friend was doing, he replied that his front sight flew off and skipped off his nose. After a few minutes of scavenging across the gravel we managed to find it. Aside from those, I've personally only seen the typical failures to feed from the magazine or failures to fully eject. I've only seen a handful of dud rounds, most of which being .22lr, unsurprisingly.

Back when I carried, one of my options was a fannie pack holster which using Velcro could have the front pulled off for access, used for my primary. While it didn't carry a larger weapon it didn't required a jacket or pulled out shirttail, and could be taken off and tossed in the car trunk or a locker without being obvious. And it would fit either my K frame or SW 9. It was kind of obvious if you knew what it was due to the cord hanging down used to pull the front loose, but I don't remember ever seeing another one. I had a NAA MiniMag for a backup, useful as a belly gun or making noise, but is sure was easy to conceal.
