When the world breaks into chaos it will be up to you to defend yourself. There is no such thing as a one size fits all firearm. Each specific class and type of fire arm has a specific use that it’s designed for. A pistol such as a 9mm Glock is designed for close range combat and concealment. Shotguns can be used for close to medium range defensive situations but have their limitations. Sport rifles like AR15’s are the most versatile because they will work at extremely close ranges and long ranges out to 500-100 yards depending on the marksman skill level. The downsize with Ar15 rifles is the fact they are difficult to conceal when moving through different environments on foot.

The 223/556 version of the AR15 platform is popular because it allows the operate to carry large amounts of ammunition because the bullet is very lightweight. Furthermore, in extreme scenarios the AR15 could be used as a hunting tool to procure small game and even medium size deer and elk.
