Could a Modern Gun Owner Survive The Alamo?

What happens at the Battle of the Alamo if one defender carries an AR-15 and 200 rounds of .223? In this Texas Revolution what-if, a modern shooter guards the Alamo's powder magazine for all thirteen days of the 1836 siege, and every round he fires is one nothing on the continent can replace. Mike walks the wall from the first probe in the burning huts to the moment a cracked optic turns precision into guesswork. Grounded in the real record, the story tracks William Travis's "Victory or Death" letter, the 32 Gonzales riders who were the only relief ever sent, and Santa Anna's call to storm the walls before dawn on March 6 instead of waiting for his siege guns, the one order that erases a rifle's range advantage. It's Alamo history for military history fans who want the final battle told round by round and survival tier by tier, right up to Robert Evans's crawl toward the powder with a torch and the road to the Battle of San Jacinto.
