So as the title suggests, I'm torn between buying an ar-15 or a 9mm PCC.
The main uses would be home defense and a range toy, and to a much lesser extent, if SHTF and I had to bug out because of... zombies... or bed bugs, or killer bed bug riddled zombies
I will be the first to admit, I dont really know much about either of them. I do know AR-15's can get very expensive, very quickly and i'm assuming PCC's are a bit cheaper. Whichever weapon I get, I would most likely pay the tax stamp and SBR it, because it's much easier to maneuver around the house with a smaller weapon, and that would be 75% of the reason I would buy it. Furthermore, I like to shoot... infact, I love to shoot, and the other big reason im looking at PCC's is because 9mm ammo is dirt cheap, cheaper ammo means more ammo and more ammo means more fun lol. Finally, I think that not having to worry about tons of different calibers and different mag's is amazingly convenient, from what I understand, most PCC's use glock mags, and I already have a glock 17 and quite a few mags, plus, you can get the 30rd mags too, having the same mags/ammo/everything for your long gun and side arm seem extremely convenient to me, especially in a SHTF zombie and bed bug apocalypse.
I've also looked at this... thing... I cant remember the name of it but basically you put your glock 17 inside of it and it turns your pistol into a little mini carbine and since it's technically still a pistol it doesnt require a tax stamp or anything, It looks pretty handy. I've thought about buying one of those and just buying another pistol to replace the glock.
So what do you guys think?? Should I go ar-15 or PCC and which one should I go with? I really dont want to spend over $1000 on this and if I wind up going over budget I can always do the SBR later.
Any helpful hints or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
