Besides the grenades and the 105mm, I have a single action Colt 45, a 32 Winchester and a few black powder pistols.  I have nothing that I would use in home defense. The 45 and 32 bullets would end up in the house across the street. So I'm thinkin a 12 gauge. Not a long gun. A shorty.

This one or something along these lines. What you have or not ?

Doesn't matter what shotgun one has, it is the ammo that counts.

Because ergonomics, length of pull, control locations, capacity, overall length and sights are totally unimportant to intended usage.

Unless you live in a sports stadium.  In a home defense situation (read that as very close range) bird, buck, or slug will get the job done.

As a matter of fact, lead bird shot may be preferred so as not to over pen and go through walls.

A friend was handling his 30.06 in his livingroom. It went off...

It went through a stereo speaker, the outside wall and through the garage door across the street.

If I purchase a home defense weapon, it WILL be a shotgun

Friend of mine was showing us his 12 guage shotgun when it went off and blew a hole through the ceiling of his trailer

Doesn't matter what the weapon is if it isn't handled correctly

Jayzus nopoop - what kind of enemies do you have?

All I got is a couple bb guns to scare the orange male tabby cat away cause he keeps trying to have sex with my neutered female kitties. Might have to haul out the 16 gauge if that black bear from the park gets too close, or my fart gun to scare the next-door 10 year old lab when he chases my barn cats.  Sure i own guns up the wazoo but they're not for personal protection.

If you need a ready-accessible guns to protect your family...maybe, just maybe... it's you?

Worse.  They probably don't have dog-tags to collect.
