Actually, for home defense, you'd probably do well to skip the rifle and use a scattergun. As for banning "assault weapons:" it's sort of like banning cars that are painted green--it just doesn't make any sense.

A scattergun, and shotgun have been recommended. But I kinda liked the way the glock felt in my hand. ;) OTOH, if I had a rapid fire assault weapon, aim wouldn't really be as big an issue as it would be with a glock.

Oh, it's kinda like the movement to ban SUVs- they take up too much oil and are bad for the environment. I will be pissed as hell if my choices get limited, so I can completely understand why folks are upset about this assault weapon ban.
