First line of defense are my 9mm pistols that stay loaded with 147g HST defense ammo. If things escalate, my Advisor Carbine with laser is ready, also loaded with defense ammo.

I recently purchased several 30 round M1 Carbine magazines. I received the ones with UU on the lower part of the back from Sarco, and they feed perfectly. I ordered another batch from Sportsmans...
