I have a 870 that I've put a pistol grip butt stock on, shorter tactical barrel and synthetic hand pump grip.
It's soley for home protection. It's very easy to move around with in close quarters. | |

Tell that to my buddy, who wants to get a pistol for home defense. He thinks he'll pull off all this video game maneuvering. I told him to get a shotty and keep his wits about him. | |

Nothing wrong with an HD pistol if you're properly trained, but a shotgun is best.
I don't currently own a HD shotgun, but it's slated as my next purchase. __________________ God, grant me the courage to do what I know is right, even when I think it is hopeless.

12 ga. Mossberg 500 with a Copstock folding pistol grip loaded with 00 alternating with slugs. Overkill, I know, but I live alone and am not worried about rounds penetrating walls.
The Mossberg kicks hard with the original stock but with the Copstock , you can fire it one-handed. | |

Nothing fancy, a Mossberg 500 loaded with 00 buck. I keep it in my bedroom, just beside my bed, chamber empty, have to jack it once and I'm ready!! I sleep well knowing that!
Some of you may tell me that I only have 2 shots with it! I have my Ruger .45 sitting at the head of my bed and it has #'s 3-11 if necessary! I would rather have the shotgun initially, but if there were a gang, I'm pretty handy with the .45! If there was a dozen, I guess I could just hang it up!!
