.22 will go through clothing but if it hits denim or enough layers of any other material, it will slow down the bullet considerably. It might break the skin and enter, but I don't think I would consider it deep enough to call it true penetration.

Short Barrel Rifles are called SBR's. I have one chambered in 300 Blackout which is a 30-06 optimized for 8.5" barrels. On a regular .223 AR you don't want really want to go shorter than 11"s due to the fact that proper ballistics for self defense drop considerably once you go any shorter, though LOTS of people do. I personally wouldn't but I don't knock anybody that does. I wouldn't want to get shot with one either way lol

In California SBR's are illegal, so we have what are called AR Pistols. It's basically a short barrel rifle but without a shoulder pad.

It's classified as a pistol since it does not have a shoulerable stock.

It's not a rifle, it's a pistol

 

[Mowgli]

It's not a rifle, it's a pistol

You can call it a pistol but if the barrel is long it's a rifle

 

[Stir Fry]

You can call it a pistol but if the barrel is long it's a rifle

By your definition, but not the ATF's

 

[Mowgli]

By your definition, but not the state's

Please tell the people how one legally obtains an AR pistol in california.

Its not like going to the store like lemme get that ar pistol.

 

[Stir Fry]

I already did. It can't have a shoulderable buttstock as well as it has to start it's life as a single shot pistol by using a single shot magazine sled. Google and calguns.net is your friend. Stop cluttering this thread if you don't know what you're talking about.

I assembled mine from an 80% receiver but yes, you can buy AR pistols at your local cali gun store. No special license or anything required.

Check out Riflegear.com. They're a great gun shop based out of LA.

Bump.

 

[Mac Casper]

I just picked up my new one 3 days ago . . . let me just say this . . no matter what I'm focused on or thinking about it's a constant thought in the back of my mind. So much so that I locked it up in the vault and I'm letting it just simmer, marinate . . stew . . steep in my mind

 

[Ken Mercilus]

Gotta save some bread for this shyt

 

[Bunchy Carter]

Is anybody else into watching Hicock45's youtube channel? He's the only gun vlogger that I can watch.

I watch Hicock45 a lot dude has a crack shot. I also watch the cat named Colion Noir; sometime he does talk too much lol, but he gives good info and he's a good shooter. There are some gun vloggers that I can't watch, because they try to talk like some there some know it all, I hate that just shoot the gun.

 

[Bunchy Carter]

I don't know why; but I found this funny. The leopard smack the gun out of his hand and it was a wrap after that
