    Yes, they’re not Marines, meaning it’s even easier for someone to just grab the gun around the corner and make it useless. If you get into a scuffle a hand gun is going to still be able to be used.

    Never said it was. Literally said it’s basically a slug at 10’ in a home.

    I mean sure, if you don’t care about what’s outside or neighbors. There’s a big difference on penetration there.

    Cool, no one is fucking clearing their damn homes like they’re in Iraq…

    Exactly my point. Clearing a house effectively with a long gun is much harder than a hand gun. You have to be aware of blind corners and peaks where the barrel can be grabbed before you even see the person. That was my point. A handgun remains effective in a melee.
