Mini gun.
No, I kid.
Never use a weapon for home defense that takes out walls.
A coach gun would do the trick.

Anybody thats says a shotgun so you dont have to aim should get stabbed in the head with an icepick 20 or 30 times!
Why has there been such an increase in the popularity of silencers in the last few years? Personally, I couldn’t care less but there is flurry over them nevertheless.

Yeah, but moving from the bedroom to the living room might be a problem, unless you like remodeling.
I’d prefer a shotgun with lots of pellets. Or else I’d have to tell the intruder to “hold still a sec, wouldcha?”.
My partner bought me a little pistol that my weak arthritic hands can operate.
I’d still prefer a shotgun.

Helps with position concealment I would imagine. If THEY dont know where YOU are it would be an advantage wouldn’t you say?
Do they make suppressors for shotguns?
Having said that, we are locked and loaded in every room, and bathroom, with additional ammo for the siege. It’s nothing to see a handgun sitting on the desk these days.
Thinking of living in it...
Honestly, how do we defend ourselves against a totalitarian government?
Remington 870 shotgun. It’s like a Polaroid....point and shoot.
I’m holding out for a BFG 9000.

Have you looked into the S&W “EZ” line of pistols? Your situation is exactly who they are designed for.
One that cleans up after itself?

Probably a Taurus Judge loaded with .410 bird shot or a self defense round. Even a 9mm will penetrate the house across the street but a .410 load of shot should lose enough velocity that it will likely keep the neighbors safe. Close range it will still deliver heavy punch albeit with a bit snappy recoil.
