Depends on where i am in the home at the time the need arises. Most likely the first one will be my EDC which will be on me.

If i have my safe open at the time the answer might be ALL OF THE ABOVE....

In close quarters nothing equals a shot gun and double 00 buck shot.... And it you say anything different you’re full of BS or you dont have a clue in my opinion.

Right up till you shoot through a wall and someone is on the other side. On the other hand, I qualify under both statements above....

You can use 4 shoot or larger if your having to worry about someone in another room. 4 shoot will not penatrate two sheets of sheet rock, or so I have been informed.
