If you haven't already acquainted yourself with the idea of defending yourself with a firearm TODAY is the day. Ideally you would have three weapons an AR-15 (Palmetto State Armory or equivalent) because it's everywhere, a Glock 19 because everyone who's job it is to kill people has used it without complaint and a shotgun if you are unfamiliar with firearms I suggest an old (70s 80s) Remington 870 (pump action) police magnum if you are familiar with shotguns can't beat the Benelli m4 or Beretta 1301 I'm sure some of you have felt an ominous weight for awhile now like myself, feeling as though things cannot continue as they have and you are right. I've struggled myself with the idea that what we have been told to be is reliant upon a system that should not be. I'd like to open a discussion on this topic and how you think things will go. For all the non believers I'll pray for you.

Absolutely true (re: utilitarian bit). Btw, .458 is a faster burning load w/ a large (.50 AE) primer, so there's no flash at 10.5". That said... there is a LOT of noise and concussive force.
Had a 9inch ar pistol(5.56) a little ways back lost it in a boating accident but that thing was intense if anyone is standing near you forget about it I'd love of these https://www.gunbroker.com/item/1041273584
That sucks, man. We lost pretty much everything in our last building accident as well.
That pistol looks pretty sweet, though. I'm not a huge fan of 300blk because you only gain a tiny bit (~10%) of muzzle energy over .556, at the expense of ballistic coefficient and range, and because it's a narrower spitzer round, you also lose a lot of ability to step up projectile grain weight when you go subsonic. For example, with .458 you can put a can on it and shoot subsonic 600 grain rounds with more muzzle energy than supersonic .556. Subsonic 300blk have less than half the energy, and a similar range. (Sorry to come across like a .458 salesman.)
I just like Sig stuff 🤣 if they had that in 10mm it'd be on like Donkey Kong
