Setting up a reliable home-defense rifle takes more than unboxing it. Today I’m walking through my full Q Honey Badger SBR build suppressor, optic placement, light setup, tape switch routing, sling attachments, and everything I’ve learned as a non-expert dad trying to protect his family.You’ll see how I mounted the Trash Panda suppressor, installed the EOTech optic, positioned the SureFire light, managed cables, chose the sling placement for a left-handed setup, and dialed in the layout so the Honey Badger performs well in a real home-defense scenario.

I finally pulled the trigger (literally).

After the wake-up call of 2020 and watching what’s happening in the world, I decided hiding in the dark praying no one kicks in my door is NOT an option anymore.

Welcome to Episode 1 of my new Home Defense / Modern Prepper Dad series.

Today is basically Christmas: unboxing the Q Honey Badger 7" 300BLK SBR, Trash Panda suppressor, EOTech, Surefire light, subsonic ammo, and everything else I just blew the Christmas budget on 😂

This is NOT a pro gun-channel. I’m just a dad who’s 6–12 months ahead of you on this journey—sharing every mistake, every dollar, and every lesson so you don’t have to learn the hard way.
