Which one of my 3 rifles with be best for a home defense scenario? I’m equally experienced with all 3. Is the .308 overkill?

Windham AR 15/M4

Saiga .308

Kalashinkov AK 19

Because why not?

Right side, top to bottom:

Magnum Research .45-70
Smith & Wesson Model 629 .44 Mag
S&W Model 29 .44 Mag
Colt Python .357 6 in (nickel)
Colt Python .357 4 in

Left side, top to bottom:

Ruger Old Army (black powder replica)
Taurus Model 44 .44 SPL
Smith & Wesson Model 586 .357
Webley Mk VI
Ruger Wrangler .22
Ruger Super Blackhawk

I’ve always had a soft spot for revolvers. Thought I’d share.

Note:

This is not NEARLY everything, just a handful of my favorite firearms.

1. Daniel Defense M4A1 SOPMOD

2. MK18 mod 0 clone

3. (To the right) Glock 43

4. Glock 17

5. (On the left) WIP backpack AR (upper receiver only)

6. 16" WIP SPR

7. Savage 110 .308

8. Mossberg 500A 12ga

9. Marlin 30/30

10. Remington 870 12ga

11. (Far right) Turkish 8mm Mauser, dated 1940

Ive noticed a strong lack of revolvers in 17HMR or 22 hornet. I was looking into snub nose revolvers for CC and I thought one of those calibers would be nice. It makes sense to me. Smaller round = smaller cylinder/more rounds in in a standard cylinder just like all the 22LR revolvers. But when I tried to look them up, I couldn't find much of anything out of torus for the 17HMR and a super redhawk for the 22hornet. Let alone any snub noses. Why?

The right is my LAR Grizzly Mark I, chambered in 45 win mag. The Left, Deagle Mark VII. Both these guns launched in 1983, and the Grizzly ceased production in the late 90s. I really wish circumstances would’ve allowed it to pick up speed like the Deagle! As a 1911 platform, I feel it’s way more reliable than other magnum semi-autos.

I know they’re both a bit impractical, so reliability isn’t too big an issue, but what’s the consensus on Desert Eagles? I don’t have substantial experience with them, but a friend of mine says it jams frequently and can’t figure it out.

My last post got removed because I apparently can’t read the rules. Huge thanks to everyone who chimed in before it disappeared. I wanted to keep the discussion going, so here’s Round 2. Description and question in the comments.

🔥 🥵 🔥 🥵 🔥

Looking into Mustang Armament and am curious what the general consensus is from people who have actually owned or shot one.

I’m interested in things like:
Reliability
Accuracy
Build quality
Long-term durability
Customer service
Whether you think it’s worth the price

I’m looking for firsthand experiences more than “my buddy said…” or brand loyalty.

If you’ve owned one for a while, put a decent round count through it, or compared it directly to something like a KAC, LMT, Geissele, BCM, etc., I’d love to hear your thoughts.

What did you like? What didn’t you like? Would you buy another one?

I recently bought Roni CAA 2G glock conversion kit from my friend pretty cheap. Ive been trying to figure out which glock models does it match with. Im thinking of buying glock 17 gen 5. Any ideas which types match with this Roni? For example does it matter is it MOS type glock and does the 5 gen fit in this specific Roni? I have tried googling, but cant get a clear answer. In my understanding glock 17 gen 3 - 5 are pretty similar sizewize. I appreciate if someone has knowledge of this subject.

I (a mechanical engineer) made this retirement gift for my dad (a former electrical engineer) using one of his PCB designs. It kind of felt like I was designing a call of duty camo.

Very first build! Decided to get one as a grad present to myself. I think it came out pretty good
over the last several months I’ve been slowly buying parts for it, with a mix of some more budget friendly options and more high end, I wanted a slim side upper just for the looks and Cmmg had one I liked so I went with that, I wanted a adjustable gas block so I got a zeek. While other parts like my Handguard and barrel I didn’t spend nearly enough on. As for the lower it’s just standard milspec besides the stock I got today and it’s paired with a strike fire 2 and a crimson trace CMR-301 rail master pro.
Super happy with how it came out and exited to use it!

Hey I need some money fast and decided to sell my ar-10 and Henry 22 evil roy but I'm not sure the best store to sell it to. I was thinking of a bass pro shop.

Bought a brand new Canik Mete MC9L and have a minor issue where on the take up the trigger return spring pings mid pull. I can’t see any awkward points of contact or if the hooks are riding against the coils of the spring too much but any help would be greatly appreciated.

(Can provide video of ping if requested)
