Olds' or Guns!
The only firearm I owned was a .22 cal. bolt action repeater. I asked our local police (Sheriff) what kind of home protection a seasoned citizen should have. Without hesitation, the sheriff told me "a hand-gun or a long rifle is useless in a home entry. Told me to get a pump-action shotgun. He said "just the sound of the shell being chambered will send the burglar running!" Bought me a six-shot 20 ga. short barreled and a bunch of buckshot. Most of the pick-ups around here have a gun-rack in the back window full of guns, along with the usual Confederate Battle flag!
I'm gonna shoot a few rounds later today to celebrate Independence Day.

Everyone has their own opinions, but I don't like leaving my shotgun out.
I sleep with my HK USP Tactical .45 with Hydrashocks right by my pillow so if I'm woken up I have it within 2 seconds.
Some people prefer an AR15 or AK47, but I like something compact I can use quickly.
I'm expert qualified multiple years now in M16 and .45 and 9mm, so it's what I'm best with.
I have a soon to be 3 year old explorer too, so large weapons have to be locked in a cabinet.
Shotty's spray, and if you need an accurate shot it's the wrong tool for the job.
I like pin point accuracy if I have to nail someone near a loved one. These are the things you have to consider.
