^^^^ I'd like to piggyback on this topic if yall don't mind.
I feel like from an economical standpoint, handguns and shotguns are better for home defense. They're aren't as expensive as rifles (unless u want a .22LR AR style) However, when taking into account the ppl that will potentially use the weapon in the midst of an intrusion.
I thought about purchasing a shotgun to accompany my .45acp for home defense. However, taking into account the recoil and the possibility of my wife having to use it also, I feel an AR would be better.
