I just discovered this newsgroup and am quite surprised
(pleasantly).

My own preference for home protection is a 12 or 20 ga. pump
shotgun.  I own two .45 auto's and dislike them for several reasons;
primarily because I don't think they lend themselves to easy use
under stress. The pump shotgun, on the other hand, necessitates two
hands, is easier to point and is more intimidating.  it is also
harder to wrest from your possession, making it less likely that you
will end up a victim.
