    If you think nobody cares if you're alive, try missing a couple of payments.

            What poll and where did you list brands?

              12ga. pump security shotgun with 3" 00 buck. Hands down the best for home defense and will kill yout target usually with one shot, if the racking of the shotgun doesn't send him running first.

                    Why 3" instead of 2 3/4? Takes up capacity and I'm sorry but the sound of a shotgun isn't magic and depending on that old "racking it scares everyone off" is stupid. If I'm racking my shotgun that means it's business time, It's usually racked and on safe before hand.

                        Also guys, Since he posted this in the handgun section I'm sure he is referring to handguns and not shotguns. Of course most of us thing a shotgun is the best home defense solution. However it is not ALWAYS the right tool for the job. Hell 90 % of the time a pistol is a better solution for me to have on hand in my house. We have kids around here and a pistol is usually what I keep on me. It's usually my glock 17 loaded up with 17 rounds of gold dots and another spare 17 and some more.

                          All of them...




                          Or none of them

                            For the most part I rely on a Glock 17 for home defense. I have been however shooting my RIA tac a lot lately and it's proving to be reliable and IMO a good choice for HD duty. So a Glock OR a 1911 for me.
