re: I have never owned a gun, but thinking of purchasing an AR15

I disagree. For the average shooter in a high pressure situation I think the shotgun would be the better option. There are options that can give you plenty of rounds (not as many as an ar maybe, but still enough). You are more than likely only going to get a few off one way or the other. Either you lost, they are done, or you scared them off.

I have. Guess how I know that you haven't.

And a 9mm pistol to protect my wife, myself and my property
I’m concerned radical lefties will ban all assault weapons.
Good idea?
If you were actually concerned about protecting your family...a shotgun would do a better job.

AR's are not going to get banned but just in case, get you one. I imagine every time this type of shooting happens, the sale of AR's go through the roof because of that "just in case" thinking. You'll love the rifle.

Go with a Smith and Wesson M&P10. Larger round and will shoot farther more accurately.

1.
because the air force has zero ground units. I guess you have never seen an airforce jtac in your world
2. it was half a joke, but I would still prefer (personally) the shotgun in a lot of cases.
but carry on

AR 15 for home defense = bad idea
9mm Glock or Ruger or a Beretta handgun = good idea
AR15 is good for the Zombie Apocalypse, but incredibly impractical for home defense...especially inside the house

1. I've worked with TACPs. Are you a TACP?
2. It wasn't a good joke, and you deserve ridicule for it.

1. then why would assume that "USAF" meant I had never handled a firearm? I was EOD attached to army units for most of my career, then switched to intel once I got tired of sand. Now I'm a free man. Anymore questions?
2. I liked my joke.

That's my setup, although thinking of getting a shotgun as well for home defense. The ar is great for sport shooting and pig hunting

My AR15 is the gift that keeps giving
