I've been thinking about getting a shotgun for home defense and could use some input from those who've been there. I'm stuck deciding between a 12-gauge and a 20-gauge. I know the 12ga hits harder, but I've heard the 20ga has less recoil and might be better for indoor use. What do you guys think?
When it comes to barrel length and stock setup, what features should I really focus on for home defense? I want something that's easy to handle and reliable. If there are specific models or brands that you've had good experiences with, let me know.
Also, how critical is training? I've shot shotguns before but not in a serious way. What do you recommend for practice to make sure I'm ready if I ever need to use it?
