What has more stopping power a shotgun or assault rifle ?

[Bonesbonesbonesbone]

So if a armed attacker was to charge at you and you could only choose one of options, Would you choose a 12 guage shotgun with losded buckshot or a 14.5 inch barrel platform BCM AR-15 semi automatic rifle with 5.56 fmjs ?

Ar 15 to the pelvis region

Shotgun.
The spread and lack of penetration through multiple walls (like bedrooms where family members may be) is better for home defense. 00 buck at close range will flatten a mother fucker.

shotgun is more powerful per shot in close to intermediate distances. i would still prefer a rifle, easier to use and more versatile and you can make quick immediate follow up shots

So 3-5 shots with a AR-15 assault rifle centre mass to the torso is going to put any large, small or normal sized human down ?
