While I can definitely understand the beneftis of a shotgun for HD, I don't understand the need or logic for a rifle in a HD situation?
I'm under the impression that in a SD situation, you are better served with a handgun based on size and time it takes to bring it into action, along with carrying convenience. However, in a HD situation, I'm missing something...racking a shotgun is a great deterrent along with the force and spray of buckshot \ birdshot. I'm not understanding the need for a rifle in this type of scenario.
Is it just for people that also hunt or is it a matter of being prepared to turn your home into a fortress and fight at long range?
Can someone provide me with the missing piece that I seem to not understand in this There are a lot of rifle posts, but I just don't see the need or benefit of owning them strictly for HD? I must be missing something crucial? :banghead:
