ar-15's for home defense?

Ar is a good weapon, but not first choice for home Invaders due to over penetration not only through your home but other homes if using fmj or hollows.

You could use the frangible rounds and or the something like the pdx1, comments?

A 9mm has more penetration of building materials than a 223.

Barnes TSX loads is what I run. They open up well out to 75/100y out of my 7.5". The AR round can pinhole you but those holes leak from both sides. Typically I saw exit wounds a significant distance away from entrance wound. Had some dudes crawl around making victim noises, had others drop like a sack of taters. Shot placement I suppose. double tapping, center mass, with 556 will snatch that soul right outta that meat suit.
 
Criminal’s Family Laments The Good Guy’s AR-15 Made The Fight Unfair

So if the victim was only armed with a knife or a club that would have been a fair fight with three armed men intruding in the victim's home?

Schumacher agrees his grandson and his friends made a bad decision, but not one worthy of deadly consequences.“They knew they could be punished for it but they did not deserve to die,” said Schumacher.

Redfearn, 19-year old Maxwell Cook and 16-year old Jake Woodruff were shot by the homeowner’s son while breaking into the Wagoner County house Monday.

Schumacher says his grandson didn’t have a chance. The 17-year old, he says, never got into trouble.
“Brass knuckles against an AR-15, come on, who was afraid for their life,” said Schumacher.

Since the shooting, Wagoner County deputies have arrested 21-year-old Elizabeth Rodriguez, the alleged getaway driver.
Schumacher believes she was the ring leader, and investigators say she admitted to planning the whole thing.

The homeowner’s son has not been charged with a crime. Deputies believe he fired in self-defense.

“There’s got to be a limit to that law, I mean he shot all three of them; there was no need for that,” said Schumacher.
Schumacher does say he supports the right to bear arms and protect your home. But he doesn’t agree with shooting and killing intruders.

Killed all three masked armed men in his home. FIFY Grandpa.

I've never understood people like this. If you don't agree with using the tools for their intended purpose, why own the tools? That boy was protecting his home. What was he supposed to do? Wave his gun around "seriously guys, don't make me do this lol" and post a selfie to Twitter?

As far as I'm concerned, they should bring the son down to the jail, line that woman against a wall, and give him a chance to go four for four.
