My semi auto rifles are not to kill deer. They are to kill attacker in my home
Well stated.
Those of us who do own rifles for hunting purposes will also do the same, and the point missed by many is if we do hunt with them, the extra shots are only to make the kill as quick as possible.
My own practice is if I’m not sure I can do it with one. I don’t shoot .
I have a 12 gauge shotgun for hunting deer. (Southern zone/half of NY using rifles for deer hunting not allowed) I also use it for home defense.
I have a Russian SKS with fixed bayonet (so called assault weapon). I have this gun for target practice and if I ever need to take my country back.
