Just nuke NYC
Why not a PS90?
XDm 9mm.....19+1 capacity.
I recently started to carry this. If you need more than 19, you are in serious doo doo
I don’t know of an SUV that only weighs 2000 pounds.
If you’re in full-auto land, I’d look at an FN P90.
I’d pick the GAU-Avenger seven barrel rotating cannon on my personal A-10 Warthog.
Those 30mm depleted uranium rounds will do the job!
18.5 inch pump shotgun with pistol grip loaded with 12 ga 00 buckshot. My Mossberg Maverick holds 6 in the tube mag and 1 in the chamber. 2 rounds fired into the swarm will disperse the rest and you still have 5 rounds for any bold ones.
Low calorie SUV.
The big weapon he had at his hands, the driver failed to use, other than when driving over the bikes at one point to escape. You can’t out-speed or out-brake a sport bike, but you can surely cause them to stay away by intentionally weaving among them. This is a very basic and effective tactic taught at all tactical driving schools. Weave one foot right, two left, increasing until you are covering two lanes with high-speed S turns. A bike can do a lot, but it can’t resist a 5,000# four-wheeler smacking it sideways. Stunt bikes rely on “cages” driving straight down the highway in fear, then they can zoom right along side or in front of you. Start weaving at 60mph, and the bikes WILL back off. If not, they will be flung into the trees.
Since it appears 5 police officers were in the group, they may have been wearing vest. You should also take penetration into consideration.

Yes, you are correct. It is likely closer to 6000 pounds.
I have made the same type of error, in a rush to get out a story. There is also a typo in the story, where the story reads “for Lawrence” instead of “from Lawrence”.
I would like to encourage a little understanding of the new media on these points. We often work without a net (editor) to catch these sort of errors.
I have been looking for volunteer editors for my work. No takers yet.
HK USP .45. 12 rounds. Preference would be my Remington 870 Police model shotgun. In any event, one is sure to lose their hearing when firing inside enclosed space. The report from an 18 inch barrel (12 ga.) is most discomfiting. HK .45 not pleasant either. But being beaten/killed by biker mob even less inviting...
The FiveSeven is a cool gun, but its expensive and ammo is not easy to find (nor is it cheap). Just get anything that holds 15+ rounds. These crotch rocket rallies aren’t real gangs with some system of honor and brotherhood. They’re just punks who meet up over social media and decide to go harass motorists. I doubt that you’d have to shoot them all. Shoot a couple of them and the rest will scoot away.
I read the title, and thought immediately of the FN FiveseveN.
Expensive gun with pricy ammo, but worth it.
It would be great to have a conversion kit so you could train with .22LR.
You just have to hope that nobody in the mob is packin...
No problem. From some of the howlers I see in the DBM having an editor is no guarantee of accuracy anyway.
The FN 5.7x28 is on my wish list. If it is good enough for the Secret Service, it is good enough for me.
My thoughts exactly.
