I don’t hold to the belief that all self-defense incidents will be at rifle ranges, and neither should you or anyone else. If that were the case I would just tote around my.308 tactical bolt gun which allows far more range than does an AR and leave everything else at home. But that isn’t practical. Also keep in mind that not all self-defense incidents will, or might be, other armed people, especially if you live in a rural setting as I do.
