Here in the United States, there are many issues that people love to debate. While politics tops the list today, there are certainly other issues that could divide the country and leave people flustered and downright hostile. Up there with the best city for pizza or whether baseball should have a designated hitter rule is the issue of “what makes a good home self-defense gun?”

I wouldn’t know. I lost mine in a tragic boating accident.
One that doesn’t splatter blood all over the place that you have to hire a cleaning company to come in and clean it up.........
Any of several...but I’ll have to find them from my boating accident.
Took 21 posts for that???? LOL
Gatlin gun.

It is also very important to take your gun to an indoor shooting range. You need to be aware how loud a gunshot is inside a house.
I guess FReepers are a little slow on the draw.
Yep....would have to agree!
Lol. Good point.
The gun you are proficient with.
Xactly
If women are involved I believe a short barrel (legal) 20ga pump is the gun. Point and pull the trigger, but make sure they are familiar with its operation.
If it shoots 00 buckshot at 1200 fps, it’s perfect.
It is where you need it when you need it.
In the state where I am private owners are asking $1200+ for ARs.

I know someone who won;t use a shotgun because in the unlikely event he has to use it he doesn’t want to clean up the mess.
That dark hole at the end of a Remington 870 police magnum is one of the most intimidating images ever.
RIP, Remington Arms

ImVho, a 12 gauge SHOTGUN is the FIRST home defense firearm that should be in every citizen’s home.
(Load it with 00, 0, #1 or #4 buckshot. = I prefer/use a ITHACA Model 37, loaded with #4 buck, as I live in a densely populated urban area.)
After a person acquires their pump-gun & learns to use it safely for home defense, it is time to consider other options.
Just my OPINION, ex-cadet
