If you intend to hunt with it, you want a longer barrel (28”) and interchangeable chokes. Magazine capacity may have to be limited depending on local hunting restrictions.
Would 26 inches work or am I legally obligated to purchase a shotgun with a 28 inch barrel for hunting?
Should be fine unless there is weird rules in your area. A longer barrel will improve range, so if you are taking closer shots a 26” should be fine.
I prefer it to rifles, though if you're between rooms and the muzzle is beyond the doorway the sound is somewhat mitigated. It's best to keep earpo nearby if not on your person at home regardless.
You could make a decent living if you could make it work on something like mosin, or m1 garand.
I was thinking that too, you could base it off of the M7 grenade launcher since it shuts off the gas and locks onto the bayonet lug.
Just a casual helpful reminder to keep your electric ear pro with your home defense setup. I have a bump helmet with comtacs and a PVS14 by my home defense rifle set up. The boosted audio is also nice. Except for when you’re out at the range pick up a conversation that you think is right next to you but in reality is actually 15 feet away and you make a comment standing by absolutely no one making you look schizo
Except for how yes they do
Errbody can and should have them these days. $1,000 gets you a Saker + Stamp + flashhiding lense cap. Very easy goal to hit in a year or less for even a $45,000 a year wagie. $1,300 and you can get a Velos if flow-through is your jam.
Yeah, you see a lot of Guntuber Leviathan shills pushing for these obnoxiously loud 10" or 8" SBRs in 5.56 that'll blow out your fucking eardrums in an instant. Any time spent at the range will let you know that being next to one of those things going off - hell even being behind the trigger will give you a good case of tinnitus without proper ear protection. IIRC shotguns don't nearly have the amount of nasal destroying pressure, but if I were to take my pick I'd just stick with a 9mm PCC that I know is G2G for sure.
Oh boy I love this when working at construction sites where wearing earpros is a must due to safety regulations. Countless times this has happened.
Fuck. I really really hate saying anything positive about .300blk buuuuuuut.... if your use case is home defense and you are very concerned about your ears, 6" barrel .300blk with a can is pretty much the ticket.
i'm with you there. i trust my AP5 enough that i put a light on it and keep it aside for any sort of nefarious rascal.
Fucking same bro. Yeah, a rifle is better. I don't keep those laying around or in drawers.
AP5s are solid. I've spent way too much time & money buying almost every single PCC on the market only to realize that the MP5 is king and the only thing that comes even close in my personal experience are B&T subguns. The AP5 will have some variance in QC especially regarding magazine wobble but all the other people I know who shoot them never had that in and of itself cause an issue. They're extremely smooth shooting to the point you could hand it to pretty much anybody with the confidence that they'll have a blast. Apparently mine is magazine sensitive or doesn't like certain types of 115 grain because German mags cause mine to choke on occasion. Slap a low profile B&T mount, an AimPoint and a
i had to have lucked out with mine. it had like two or three light strikes and a round teleporting under the trigger pack during the first 200 shots but it's gone over a thousand since without any trouble. i went with the midwest extended rail and a holosun. the MP5 really is the king. it's an all time favorite that i wanted to get ever since i saw them in games/movies as a kid
I’ve been very underwhelmed with B&T. B&T is literally European Keltec.
