I totally get the "That's not a pistol thingy".
Have a hard time honestly describing these two as pistols.
5.56 NATO :)

Me too.
But that’s how the ATF classifies them.
Barrel less than 18'' has to be a pistol. Smart thinking on the manufacturers part. Like the Ruger Chargers, sold as a pistol.
Towards the end of my time at the PD, we got those to fit in the saddle bags of the motorcycles. I was totally against it myself but they ended up getting them. At the time there were several school shootings and they argued the motors could get in further and faster than cars. I figured only a fool would ride a motor into an active shooter scenario.
Yup, yup.Quote:

Any recommendations for an IWB holster?
Leather preferred….none of that Kydex stuff.
I always kinda wanted a Keltec PLR16. But not badly enough to buy one. They're hard to find, anyway.

Hey Army...just make sure you wear GOOD ear protection with an AR 556/223 pistol. They are real LOUD
My choice in AR pistols is in 300 Blackout shooting 220 grain ammo. More of a thump than a loud crack.
Was function checking my Arsenal SLR-106U 10.5" 5.56 at an indoor range with various ammo.Quote:

Full Disclosure:
Years and countless 22 LR rounds down range without hearing protection later.
My hearing SUCKS!
Also my first center fire weapon was a 4" 44 Mag S&W.
Of which I shot boatloads of Federal 240 gr Magnum Hydra-Shoks (with hearing protection).
I like fireballs and don't seem to notice concussion/blast :p
Maybe that's one of the reasons I like 357 Sig so much?
These days loud sounds actually hurt.
I use Decibel Defense muffs (Reduce Noise 34-37 Decibels).
My experience with these short barreled guns (5.56 and 308s with brakes).
The folks to the side get punished, but me, directly behind the blast, am just fine :D
