    Best 5.56/.223 Home Defense Ammo?

    Suppressors Kimber Solo

    Re: Kimber Solo It's really a shame that Star went belly up years ago -- the 9mm Firestar was a peach: simple SAO, compact, reliable, accurate, robust. Admittedly, it was a chunk (I believe 32 oz. plus, all steel) but if you ran out of bullets you could beat the bad guy senseless with it. I...
