Home defense recommendations?
I’m being indecisive so fuck it I’ll see what y’all think.
Looking for a dedicated home defense gun that I can buy/build 2 identical copies of and hide on opposite ends of the house. I currently just keep a couple of my shotguns loaded in various locations, but full power 12ga loads are way too much for my 100lb wife to handle . I’m looking for something that she can easily use without sacrificing lethality
My requirements are:
>maximum lethality with minimal chance of over penetration (yea I know you can’t entirely mitigate over pen and “just got gud” these are still characteristics I’m looking for)
>preferably high capacity
>low-moderate recoil
>easy to operate/load(preferably AR levels of easy)
>able to mount a flashlight
>compact (short barrel, preferably still with a stock or brace)
>under $1k per gun
My current considerations are:
>braced micro draco using SP/HP
>braced AR pistol using SP/BSP
>Some kind of PCC likely in .45auto with HP rounds
>a compact pump or semi auto 12 or 20ga shotgun (probably have to sbs it) with something like #4 buck
I’m not really interested in going with a handgun since maximum concealability isn’t the priority and I don’t mind trading some maneuverability for ease of use and accuracy.
