i agree. every arsenal should have a decent shotty. in certain situations, i prefer my modded saiga 12 over any SAR. mostly for home protection and zombie hordes. alternating buck and slug shots in the 20 rd drum. if you know a smithy whose shady you can have them covert it to full auto but dont get caught with it [You must be logged in to view images.

About full-auto, that just depends where you live (regarding the US). Less than 10 states make it incredibly hard to own a full-auto (e.g California). Some states you can, but licensing can be expensive. And then other states, it's not a problem (e.g. Idaho). Hell, in CA it's a 10yr wait just to get a concealed carry permit [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
Well not for criminals.. But for life-long law abiding citizens in good standing and not on some anti-psychotic drug or anti-depressant, yeah... we're not the ones making the horrific news headlines. Oh wait... what was I saying...

Oh yeah, anyhoot, imo full-auto is overkill anyway, especially in say a urban setting, I recommend burst fire which is usually 3 round bursts on the switch. Unless you are using a tripod/stand or something, otherwise on those high caliber rifles the accuracy is just outlandish. In an urban setting, full-auto I just wouldn't use an assault rifle, but maybe a SMG if I needed full-auto (likely not). Rifles are about range, and urban is most often in-your-face near point blank if you defend properly. But sure you can shoot through walls, but that's not really smart shooting, more a desperate situation that with planning can be avoided.

Anyone buying their first weapon, I seriously recommend training. Most ranges have training programs, and training is not just how to shoot but also how to think. Be it hunting and/or defense, one can't just pick up a firearm with little to no training and expect to have a good outcome.
