I have always thought about buying a shotgun for home protection.
I have seen ads for one called a "POLICE SPECIAL" or "Police
Pump Shotgun" or something similar. I have fired a regular 20ga.
hunting shotgun and the Army 30 cal. carbine and M1 rifle. My
question is : would the short barreled "Police Shotgun" be a good
weapon for mainly home protection or is there a better choice for
me ,keeping in mind the cost should remain similar to the Police
shotgun. Thanks.
