Own a musket for home defense, since that's what the founding fathers intended. Four ruffians break into my house. "What the devil?" As I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle. Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he's dead on the spot. Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it's smoothbore and nails the neighbors dog. I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grape shot, "Tally ho lads" the grape shot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms. Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion. He Bleeds out waiting on the police to arrive since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up.

Shawn, I live in Oregon City Oregon and have been a subscriber and fan of yours for about 18 months. I appreciate your no BS approach to helping the general public like me with great common sense information on how protect your family and yourself. After watching this video last night I literally went out today and stood in line for about 2 hours at Northwest Armory in Milwaukee Oregon and walked out with a Sig AR15 and a Sig MPX 2nd Gen MPX 9mm PCC, all based on your guidance. I’ve been married for 28 years and have 3 beautiful kids all worth protecting. Thank you for what you do, the sacrifices you have made for all of us, and your continued support!!
I really appreciate how you always keep your family in mind. Having a wife and daughter myself, its reassuring to hear advice from someone with the same thought process.
Folks thought I was nut's when I told them that I teach my wife how to shoot every firearm I own. If she can't shoot it, I get rid of it or don't buy it at all. Folks don't realize that, you ain't gonna be home all the time.
Penetration is a weird science. Following a British Army test in the 1950's it was discovered that a standard Nato sandbag will stop a 308 (7.62) moving at 2,840 fps at 30 yards yet a 124 grn 9mm moving at 950 fps will pass right through it and kill whoever is sitting behind it. It all comes down to energy dissipation. It is not as simple as everybody thinks.
Good point, I saw a 22 go through a jell block, shot out of a pistol, no expansion, but out of a 10,22 it only went about ten inches, great expansion, so yes it’s hard to tell ,
@@pederpedersson8951 I'd imagine hydrostatic shock in sand might engage some weird property where it becomes more resistant, whereas the 9mm doesn't and passes easily.
Pistols put holes IN people. Rifles put holes THROUGH people. Shotguns, with the right loads, at the right distances, put meat and organs on the floor. But the best... the very best home defense weapon, is the one in your hand when things go south. Good video.
@@jordanmiller7721 I don't necessarily disagree. But if a person had a pistol close, should they overlook that and spend extra time acquiring their AR? I was simply making the point that a close weapon is likely the best weapon to use in a home invasion scenario. It's a "discussion", why would you name call? That's unnecessary. Be nice, we're all on the same team here.
Kentucky Justice If you miss your first shot with a shot gun or multiple people have a gun then they are going to put rounds on you and you will have to pump your shot gun in a extremely intense situation then put in a follow up round where as with a semi auto rifle you can immediately put on follow up shots on the same target or another target if there are multiple people. With a rifle you can handle most any situation where as if you have to rechamber a shell every shot you will be at a disadvantage if there are multiple people with guns or you don’t hit a fatal shot on the first shot.
Here's the problem with that: now, even with the cleanest of HD shoots, if you end up with a political D.A., you are screwed. An errant D.A. is going to potentially present that as premeditation - as you just looking and waiting for the opportunity to shoot somebody. That $10 sign could cost you hundreds of thousands times more in legal fees and/or future wages - besides advertising that you have guns.
As we've seen there are literal commie judges and DA's who've infiltrated our legal system. The last thing you want to do is to give them an inch. And think about this, jury selection is based on voter registration. I'm not a Democrat but I've been summoned for jury duty. Have I ever actually been SELECTED for jury duty? Not once. They know my political leanings and chose not to select me. Don't expect a bunch of conservatives to sit in on your jury trial if it comes to that. They probably won't be there.
@Rockwell Rhodes ooohhh-ahhh your a HUNTER!?? And you were in service too before he was born!! OH MY GOD im wet. Dude any online courses on weaponry you offering? I'll pay big bucks man just to even be able to breathe near a life long hunter like yourself. Wow am i blessed

I know this an older video and I don't really expect a response. I am a former LEO, live alone and outside the city limits. I own numerous firearms (4 gun safes). For my night time protection beside my bed I have a 20 gauge "coach gun" loaded with #4 buckshot, no light and a Smith & Wesson M&P 9mm with a light. The shotgun will start things rolling and the 9mm with the light is for anything that is not taken care of by the shotgun. Do you think this is a solid set up for my situation? I truly respect your opinion and thank you for your service. My oldest daughter spent a year at FOB ADDER in Iraq. Thank you again for your service young man. And the 36 yard zero for the 5.56 was the video that got me to watching your channel, excellent information.
@@nelsonr1467 sorry this is about the worst piece of advice I have seen. In an emergency you are not going to have the time or the inclination to put on ear muffs. Also I do not want to impair my hearing if I need to grab my gun. I want to be sure family members can call out to me and I can hear them. Also I absolutely do not like red dots in a self defense situation I think it's TERRIBLE advice. You need to keep it simple and reliable. That's why for my family members I only keep 38 special six shooter. No safety, no red dot, just point and click. For me I like a semi-auto 12 gauge for home defense, but family members don't know how to operate it. A 38 special with no safety like a pencil barrel S&W or a ruger security six is perfect.
The point you missed about the shotgun is the flexibility of the ammo you can put in it. A 12 gauge can take a wide variety of loads from 2 3/4” #8 birdshot to your 3” 00 buck or a slug. Plus, you have a choice of the gauge of the gun that can reduce weight and recoil. It does look like the pistol caliber carbine has advantages as well and is worthy of consideration.
Actually a really smart idea to call 911, put it on speaker phone, and kick it across the room while you sort out the situation, they can record the whole thing
*calls Shawn instead of the Police during a home invasion* - *5 seconds later he fast ropes through the skylight and kills the guy with a Toblerone and a Box of Milk duds*
@@ShawnRyanShow just gonna say, although I stand behind you on your opinion about Home defense weapons, I prefer to approach the intruder naked carrying only a Tomahawk and a Flashbang
As a layman who doesn't know very much about firearms, the first thing I'd think to shop for is a 9mm pistol and a shotgun. I'm guessing my pattern of thought isn't uncommon. Thank you for doing the penetration test, it has really helped me think twice about firearm selection beyond ammo ballistics. I wouldn't think a shotgun would have that kind of penetration either.
I never considered the hands-free speaker phone option. Your voice might naturally wake family members as well. All in all, I really found the video very helpful. Thanks!
@@thoblet334 Yeah, so much better to remind people that you should always think about your safety rather than the bang from the barrel. So many people are like "Okay, your home has just been breached, grab your cannon and C4 you're about to fuck shit up with my tips and tricks.
I love how much emphasis there is on keeping everybody as calm as possible. Always important in any kind of stressful situation. People don't make the best choices when stressed and panicked
I’m no tier 1 soldier however was straight 11b for over 10 years and i just stumbled upon this video and as soon as you said the best weapon in home defense is to dial 911 I IMMEDIATELY Subscribed and furthermore to put on speaker, and throw in away from you to keep a line of communication and possibly to conceal your exact position then moving to my primary home defense weapon...well played good sir
When I took the Combat Carbine course with my police department (requisite course for being authorized to carry one in the vehicle on duty) , the instructors showed us FBI ballistics tests for several types of rounds through various types of walls in homes. One thing that got my attention was that once a hollow point goes through a gypsum or wooden wall, the "cup" of the hollow point is filled with wall material and then the round acts like ball ammunition from that point on for pistols. It never occurred to me that would happen to hollow-point pistol rounds . The shotgun slug had the deepest penetration of any round in a typical home with interior walls, more than rifle or pistol due to the kinetic energy of the round (KE = 0.5 x mass of projectile x velocity squared). The slug was not the recommended round within a home. I completely agree with your assessment of the pistol being the best home-defense weapon. Even a DA revolver like the S&W Model 66 using .38+P is simple, no safety, just point and shoot. I enjoyed the video Sean. Fair Winds and Following Seas!
After all that. Birdshot. Probably didn’t even cover that in the course, lol. It holds a tight pattern and lacks the mass to penetrate. Just gets slept on. Thank you for your service. Cheers.
It took some convincing to get my department, located in deeeeeep blue NYS, to authorize Patrol Rifles. “Optics”. The “excessive penetration” of the 5.56 nonsense was destroyed immediately by comparing it to the 12 gauge slugs we’ve been carrying for decades. An ounce of lead vs a varmint round? No contest.
He is anything but a stoner. After a lifetime of AAR’s, mission planning, brief backs to chair borne warriors, lookie Lou’s, you develop a delivery or speaking style that is calm but edgy. When delivering training or a briefing, you go for direct and to the point. When dealing with civilians, you throw in a joke or two. “Yeah, green tip sucks, so we went to black hills 77’s”. How do I know he has a sense of humor? The eyebrows popping over the sunglasses. I’ve never worked or trained with Sean, but I get the mind set and quiet professionalism.

Shawn, I saw Reid Heinrich’s video similar to this and he used xm193 55 gr with desirable results vs the 62 and heavier rds. Video worth a watch. That said I run the Scorpion set up for my home defense gun with the same round you’re using.
Buckshot Henry saw that too. Also, Karl from Tactical Rifleman tested different .223 rounds and recommended the short range 35-grain frangible ammo from Inceptor. I guess ARs are good to go, just need to have the right ammo.
You changed my mind last year with your 36 yard zeroing video, and it made perfect sense. You changed my mind with my home defense system. My CZ scorpion I think will fit the bill nicely. Great video.
I like the HK diopter choice for the iron sights for the MPX. Are those just 416 10" sights? Did you swap a MP5 sight drum on the rear? Or are those some other custom sights from somewhere else?
It's amazing how the house fills up with that sound, and there is no way to ignore it. I had a guy break into our home when I was 13, I pumped off a round in panic.......Needless to say, Cops weren't happy with me, but bad guy dipped out immediately! My brother was 8, he still to this day has never fired a weapon. Too scared. Lol
Lol when I was 11 I remember accidentally firing my aunts husbands 300 magnum rifle in the house. Ears ring for minutes can’t imagine a 12ga , if that’d be worst than a 300 mag
Thank you for making this information available. Ive seen many of your videos and I've learned alot from them. Mostly how much I dont know, but because of people like you I get to learn more each day. Thank you again brother
At close distances, The shot pattern is really tight. See the first Bob on this test and locate where ALL 15 pellets hit. That's devastating to the intended targeting will absolutely neutralize the target. If you are shooting at 15-20 yds, I'd want a more precise weapon however, especially ion the shotgun is a short barrel.
your lead in statement was absolutely brilliant. i say the best home defense weapon is whichever one you might have that you can get to, and know how to operate.
Brah ... Get on my level going to be running around naked as a peeled potato with my fat ass. Not only are they going to die, the last thing they are going to see is my gross ass fatbody self. I almost feel bad if that ever happens.
Two things that make Sean truly respectable is that A. Being a real world badass (fromer SEAL etc.) he know how to use all the 'cool' stuff but tell you straight it's useless in society. Is nightvision and thermal useless? No, but 99.998% of people will NEVER need it! B. He swear a lot, and that's a sign of a down to earth and no-BS dude 😎😉🤘
As a infantryman in OiF1 the first time I fired my weapon (M-16 A-2) in a house it literally rocked my sense’s it was a totally different kinda of pulsating/vibrating loud eventually you’ll get used to it but I’ll never forget it🇺🇸
I just feel like the best crew to learn "self defense" gun work is Shawn Ryan and John McPhee. No ego BS, just proven knowledge taught by real dudes. God bless'em!
The phone is great advice . Very helpful and very clean thinking. Thanks for the Intel ,also very helpful. Bro . speaking of being culm , you have to be one of the most chiller dude's I've ever seen in my life. Right on.
Simon Rodriguez ..... I know it’s 2019 and it’s basically the new “in thing” to be gay, but coming out in a UA-cam video’s comments section is just weird 🤣🤓
Great video man👍 I do want to point out meat is really good at slowing down pellets. From most of the police 12g shootings that I've read on,which there are not many. they dont get a lot of pass through on a center mass hit. I really like #2 brid shot for home defence its way more deadly than people think.
Man this reminds me of classic Shawn Ryan videos before he started the show. Don’t get me wrong I love the show but these videos were how I found him first and have a certain amount of nostalgia to me.
I always just call 911 put it on speaker, throw the phone at the suspect, while suspect is distracted with phone flying towards face I shoot through the phone into suspects face killing both the phone and the suspect. Two birds with one stone! - Wisdom
Repeat 5.56 penetration shot didn’t have the liquid/soda strapped on the torso. Thats a pretty big difference. Particularly with a high velocity round that is designed to tumble and fragment when it hits liquid. Not sure why you wouldn’t keep the tests similar. Most tests I have seen consistently show 5.56 penetrates less than 9mm in these types of scenarios. But hey, still enjoyed the vid!
@@ItsEverythingElse Interesting, I've not seen videos saying 9mm will over penetrate more than 5.56, got any additional links? (genuinely curious, not trying to be a troll)
It seemed like this was just a chance for him to give Sig a shoutout lol. The “penetration” test was a complete joke and I hope no one takes it seriously. Sadly many will because he was a SEAL at one point. So he knows everything about guns and ballistics right?
I thoroughly enjoyed this video, the best penetration test I’ve seen. I also really appreciate how he showed us the gun was clear before going down range. Just adds to his credibility. That being said, I would love to see 2.75 inch, 8-9 pellet 00 buck tested. I feel like this is the more common home defense 12 ga load.
After doing some tests and drills then weeding through all the shit talking internet advice I have evolved from 223 suppressed into using 300 BLK subsonic suppressed for HD. It will do the job.
300 BLK 'pistol' owner here. Need to get a suppressor. But broke as a joke. Also going to try and use his 36 yard zero targets for best ballastics with supersonics.
Zero one- the 36 yard zero is for the ballistics of a 5.56 shooting at approximately 3,000fps. The blackout is shooting much slower than that, therefore the 36 yard zero will not do the same.
@@jeffreyswoodard Yeah I understand there is some differences, though im betting for the first 25-36 yards is not so drastically different that it will matter all that much. It might mean its a simulated 32 yards or 42 (too dumb to know) but still close enough to get a good trajectory.
@@jeffreyswoodard So yeah looked at some ballistics calculators and if Im reading it properly a true 36 yard zero for my rifle would be .7" bullet drop at 25 yards. So it looks like the same target Shawn made will work as its right about .75" So .... yeah it will work good enough I think.
If you live in a sheetrock house, make sure you memorize the directions of your family's bedrooms, and have an emergency plan that they understand. Line your kids' room walls with full bookshelves.
I actually have several switches in my bedroom that can turn on most of the lights in my house. I also keep my car keys next to me and when I am sure there's someone else in the house, I hit the car alarm and wake up the entire neighborhood. It may not deter an invader but it will draw attention to others
Oh snap. This is the kind of video that starts $#!+ *THE* best home defense weapon is the one you're proficient with. Get ammo, get training, blast baddies when the situation deems it necessary. Pistols are hard to shoot Shotguns are big and limited in capacity but hell-a strong. Rifles are LOUD af, and the round has the potential to say "hi" to your neighbors bedroom walls.... Pro's and Con's to each. Pick one. Get good!
The FBI actually switched from PCCs and SMGs to rifles because pistol rounds had a higher tendency to penetrate walls. Rifle rounds tended to disintegrate under such high velocities when hitting an exterior wall from the inside.
I’ve been watching youre interviews for a while now, and I’ve went back and looked at some of your earlier posts, I will say this, in 4 years or so, you seem to have mellowed out a good bit, you seem to have found your center now. I’ve been trying to find that center and mellow out for a long time, just can’t get there
Like the video but it would have been a more consistent test if you used a 55 grain hollow point in the AR instead of the heaviest projectile you could find.
Heavy projectiles are slower so less chance of over penetration. I'd go with a .45acp round for a handgun or Ar15 pistol round if possible, all .45 acp rounds are subsonic.
@@MichaelCook1981 You have things backwards and some +p 185gr .45 ACP rounds are supersonic and there are lighter ones that also are supersonic by a good margin.
Based on other tests I've seen and the things I've heard from SWAT, I still think soft point .223/5.56 would come out on top in terms of the tradeoff between effect on the intended target and over-penetration concerns.
I was under the impression that standard M193 55gr 5.56mm ammo is actually safest due to high velocity projectile fragmentation. Also, that 9mm did NOT perform as expected, it should have mushroomed and/or leafed off outwards. You could even try 5.56 hollow points which should leaf off like crazy due to the velocity.
3 inch magnums are a little much for home defense. That is a hunter's load. 2 3/4 inch shells are what is more commonly used for defense. That said, good video and lots of useful info. Thanks.

Pistols put holes IN people. Rifles put holes THROUGH people. Shotguns, with the right loads, at the right distances, put meat and organs on the floor. But the best... the very best home defense weapon, is the one in your hand when things go south. Good video.
Kentucky Justice some 9mm rounds penetrate more than 5.56. Shutup fudd. A 10.5 suppressed ar is perfect for home defense
@@jordanmiller7721 I don't necessarily disagree. But if a person had a pistol close, should they overlook that and spend extra time acquiring their AR? I was simply making the point that a close weapon is likely the best weapon to use in a home invasion scenario. It's a "discussion", why would you name call? That's unnecessary. Be nice, we're all on the same team here.

If you miss your first shot with a shot gun or multiple people have a gun then they are going to put rounds on you and you will have to pump your shot gun in a extremely intense situation then put in a follow up round where as with a semi auto rifle you can immediately put on follow up shots on the same target or another target if there are multiple people. With a rifle you can handle most any situation where as if you have to rechamber a shell every shot you will be at a disadvantage if there are multiple people with guns or you don’t hit a fatal shot on the first shot.
Sign on my front door in big red letters. "Due to ammo shortage, no warning shots will be fired".
Great, now criminals know where to get free guns
Here's the problem with that: now, even with the cleanest of HD shoots, if you end up with a political D.A., you are screwed. An errant D.A. is going to potentially present that as premeditation - as you just looking and waiting for the opportunity to shoot somebody. That $10 sign could cost you hundreds of thousands times more in legal fees and/or future wages - besides advertising that you have guns.

I know this an older video and I don't really expect a response. I am a former LEO, live alone and outside the city limits. I own numerous firearms (4 gun safes). For my night time protection beside my bed I have a 20 gauge "coach gun" loaded with #4 buckshot, no light and a Smith & Wesson M&P 9mm with a light. The shotgun will start things rolling and the 9mm with the light is for anything that is not taken care of by the shotgun. Do you think this is a solid set up for my situation? I truly respect your opinion and thank you for your service. My oldest daughter spent a year at FOB ADDER in Iraq. Thank you again for your service young man.

Goal accomplished
Nelson R i was thinking about that. but at the same time wouldn’t you want to be alert and hear everything going on around the house or inside?
@@nelsonr1467 sorry this is about the worst piece of advice I have seen. In an emergency you are not going to have the time or the inclination to put on ear muffs. Also I do not want to impair my hearing if I need to grab my gun. I want to be sure family members can call out to me and I can hear them. Also I absolutely do not like red dots in a self defense situation I think it's TERRIBLE advice. You need to keep it simple and reliable. That's why for my family members I only keep 38 special six shooter. No safety, no red dot, just point and click. For me I like a semi-auto 12 gauge for home defense, but family members don't know how to operate it. A 38 special with no safety like a pencil barrel S&W or a ruger security six is perfect.
@@billibarou i use electronic earpro and puting them doesn't take a lot of fine motor skills.
The point you missed about the shotgun is the flexibility of the ammo you can put in it. A 12 gauge can take a wide variety of loads from 2 3/4” #8 birdshot to your 3” 00 buck or a slug. Plus, you have a choice of the gauge of the gun that can reduce weight and recoil.
It does look like the pistol caliber carbine has advantages as well and is worthy of consideration.
Shotguns are also cheap af

As a layman who doesn't know very much about firearms, the first thing I'd think to shop for is a 9mm pistol and a shotgun. I'm guessing my pattern of thought isn't uncommon. Thank you for doing the penetration test, it has really helped me think twice about firearm selection beyond ammo ballistics. I wouldn't think a shotgun would have that kind of penetration either.
Plus shotguns are really really really loud. As in LOUD!!!!!!

Good one, Dad...
4 years later and i laughed
When I took the Combat Carbine course with my police department (requisite course for being authorized to carry one in the vehicle on duty) , the instructors showed us FBI ballistics tests for several types of rounds through various types of walls in homes. One thing that got my attention was that once a hollow point goes through a gypsum or wooden wall, the "cup" of the hollow point is filled with wall material and then the round acts like ball ammunition from that point on for pistols. It never occurred to me that would happen to hollow-point pistol rounds . The shotgun slug had the deepest penetration of any round in a typical home with interior walls, more than rifle or pistol due to the kinetic energy of the round (KE = 0.5 x mass of projectile x velocity squared). The slug was not the recommended round within a home. I completely agree with your assessment of the pistol being the best home-defense weapon. Even a DA revolver like the S&W Model 66 using .38+P is simple, no safety, just point and shoot.
I enjoyed the video Sean. Fair Winds and Following Seas!
After all that. Birdshot. Probably didn’t even cover that in the course, lol. It holds a tight pattern and lacks the mass to penetrate. Just gets slept on. Thank you for your service. Cheers.
@@KH-rt3ef Exactly, or buckshot. And the 12 gauge isn't the only size shotgun. Not sure why someone would use a slug anyway.
It took some convincing to get my department, located in deeeeeep blue NYS, to authorize Patrol Rifles. “Optics”.
The “excessive penetration” of the 5.56 nonsense was destroyed immediately by comparing it to the 12 gauge slugs we’ve been carrying for decades. An ounce of lead vs a varmint round? No contest.

At close distances, The shot pattern is really tight. See the first Bob on this test and locate where ALL 15 pellets hit. That's devastating to the intended targeting will absolutely neutralize the target. If you are shooting at 15-20 yds, I'd want a more precise weapon however, especially ion the shotgun is a short barrel.
your lead in statement was absolutely brilliant. i say the best home defense weapon is whichever one you might have that you can get to, and know how to operate.

Repeat 5.56 penetration shot didn’t have the liquid/soda strapped on the torso. Thats a pretty big difference. Particularly with a high velocity round that is designed to tumble and fragment when it hits liquid. Not sure why you wouldn’t keep the tests similar. Most tests I have seen consistently show 5.56 penetrates less than 9mm in these types of scenarios.
But hey, still enjoyed the vid!
You are correct. And if 9mm fails to expand for whatever reason it is going to vastly over-penetrate compared to the 5.56.
Such science so wow
@@ItsEverythingElse Interesting, I've not seen videos saying 9mm will over penetrate more than 5.56, got any additional links? (genuinely curious, not trying to be a troll)

300 BLK 'pistol' owner here. Need to get a suppressor. But broke as a joke. Also going to try and use his 36 yard zero targets for best ballastics with supersonics.
Zero one- the 36 yard zero is for the ballistics of a 5.56 shooting at approximately 3,000fps. The blackout is shooting much slower than that, therefore the 36 yard zero will not do the same.
@@jeffreyswoodard Yeah I understand there is some differences, though im betting for the first 25-36 yards is not so drastically different that it will matter all that much. It might mean its a simulated 32 yards or 42 (too dumb to know) but still close enough to get a good trajectory.
@@jeffreyswoodard So yeah looked at some ballistics calculators and if Im reading it properly a true 36 yard zero for my rifle would be .7" bullet drop at 25 yards. So it looks like the same target Shawn made will work as its right about .75" So .... yeah it will work good enough I think.

It may not deter an invader but it will draw attention to others
Nice
Excalibur01 , great strategy!
Oh snap. This is the kind of video that starts $#!+
*THE* best home defense weapon is the one you're proficient with. Get ammo, get training, blast baddies when the situation deems it necessary.
Pistols are hard to shoot
Shotguns are big and limited in capacity but hell-a strong.
Rifles are LOUD af, and the round has the potential to say "hi" to your neighbors bedroom walls....
Pro's and Con's to each. Pick one. Get good!
Damn straight
Or pick 'em all if it's possible for you and get better with each and everyone of them as time goes by!
nope, get proficient with the most effective thing. put that pearl handled .25 acp away
@@ericvantassell6809 That's a dumb@$$ comment. No one is advocating for the use of .25 as a home defense tool.
The FBI actually switched from PCCs and SMGs to rifles because pistol rounds had a higher tendency to penetrate walls. Rifle rounds tended to disintegrate under such high velocities when hitting an exterior wall from the inside.
I’ve been watching youre interviews for a while now, and I’ve went back and looked at some of your earlier posts, I will say this, in 4 years or so, you seem to have mellowed out a good bit, you seem to have found your center now. I’ve been trying to find that center and mellow out for a long time, just can’t get there

lmao
No we don't lol My 590 Shockwave is perfect - soft recoil 😊

Literally read this at the same time he said it 😂💀
It’s sounds more tacticool to say it that way said the grown men with their hats on backwards
indoor is close quarters combat
More like Lucas of T-rex arms speed
Like the video but it would have been a more consistent test if you used a 55 grain hollow point in the AR instead of the heaviest projectile you could find.
Heavy projectiles are slower so less chance of over penetration. I'd go with a .45acp round for a handgun or Ar15 pistol round if possible, all .45 acp rounds are subsonic.
@@MichaelCook1981 You have things backwards and some +p 185gr .45 ACP rounds are supersonic and there are lighter ones that also are supersonic by a good margin.
Based on other tests I've seen and the things I've heard from SWAT, I still think soft point .223/5.56 would come out on top in terms of the tradeoff between effect on the intended target and over-penetration concerns.
Isolated, yes, but if I have a clear shot and I hesitate because I have to think what's potentially behind the target, especially if I miss, than no.
@@AbcDino843what in the fuck are you talking about lol
I was under the impression that standard M193 55gr 5.56mm ammo is actually safest due to high velocity projectile fragmentation. Also, that 9mm did NOT perform as expected, it should have mushroomed and/or leafed off outwards. You could even try 5.56 hollow points which should leaf off like crazy due to the velocity.
Thank you, and for the shotty I'd use 2 3/4 #4 buck plus shot placement is key regardless. Pcc is still good though.
Stfu don’t know what ur talking about
Liberty Overwatch 223 is what I keep in my AR while at home 👌🏼
Great Advice at the beginning with the phone, keep me listening throughout and Agree with the 9mm Carbine which is my Home Defender.
3 inch magnums are a little much for home defense. That is a hunter's load. 2 3/4 inch shells are what is more commonly used for defense. That said, good video and lots of useful info. Thanks.
