Wanna educate me about why FMJ in either an M1 Carbine or an AR is so much better than the good HP or other expanding ammo for home defense ? Tell me all about busting through barriers and what that takes , too.
Hint: some SP ammo does pretty good after going through barriers.

The 30 rounders from www.Cheaperthandirt.com are great, and hold the bolt open when the last shot is fired. pick some up I have 3 and they are great. Also look at ww.Ultimak.com for Weaver rail options I have one and it required a little stock machining but it works and feels GREAT
