Is an AR-15 Sig Series 400 with 30-round clips of 5.56 NATO, better than a 12-gauge for home defense in the U.S. against the kinds of attacks we saw in Israel?

Having an argument with the wife, she doesn't want to spend the extra money. Anywhere from $1,000 on up.

Uh oh. Clips vs. mags. You’ll upset the Bang List gods.

Yes. An AK-47 is even better. Not as accurate but it hits harder.

If you call a magazine a clip, you’ve already lost the argument.

While I may be an expert here in detailing the ‘projects’ of the Neocons, I’m not one on weapons, but it looked to me that a shotgun may have been useful against the dudes flying low in the para-gliders.

The logical decision is to get both.

Oh, and the Sig M400 is a fine weapon. Pair it with a Sig Romeo 5 red dot.

Interesting, I had typed mags, but changed it to clips at the last minute.

Make the case that you need both- both have their place, especially in home defense.

I’ve got both. For home invaders, the 12 gage clears the way quiet well.

You’re the head of you house. Do what you think you should. Your wife needs to fit into your plans.

Against the kind of attacks in Israel? I’ll take an AR-15 over a 12 gauge due to longer range and more ammo/faster reload.

Some situations require high capacity.

I found these guys to be a bargain and extra mags are $5 each.
