A shotgun IS the best thing for self defense at HOME, but a shotgun at home is of no use if you are not home.

It's ONE of the best things to have at home, and you should.

Nothing wins at close range like a shotgun, that’s for sure.

Because even if your ‘jumpy’ like the perosn who wrote the article, you still can’t miss.

We have been told the same thing. Something about not having bullets going through walls and neighbors houses. So - we have a shotgun and a revolver and I know how to use both.

It is, for general home protection. Get a 12 gauge pump, use only bird shot (like #6). It will stop anything in your home just about (probably not a bear, etc.) but if there are any stray pellets, they won’t go through wallboard, etc.

But I think this girl who has finally seen some light is talking about arming herself when she leaves her house.
