    Ok, thanks for telling me that it’s impossible for a violent criminal to ever threaten me in my house. Handguns are good for home defense because they are short range, and quick to aim, not because they are easy to hide.(That too, but to a lesser extent)

        Have you ever seen a shotgun? It’s kind of hard to maneuver inside a house. They’re pretty long.

          If you have a home invader, it’s safer to wait for them to open your bedroom door then go hunting. Hearing a shotgun get racked will likely make them shit themselves and leave anyway. Seriously, if you think there’s someone in your house out to get you, the last think you want to do is turn a corner and loose an advantage.
