I understand firearms cannot be used in self defense in Canada. These are my thoughts about home defense in countries where legal...
1) Shotguns take far too much time to load if properly stored unloaded in a safe. I don't believe there is any tactical advantage to a shotgun over a handgun in CQB. IMHO, the best gun for CQB would be a M4 type rifle. With that said, there are far more quick access safe options that allow for responsible storage and fast access at the same time.
2) Any handgun round that is effective enough to take down someone that is presenting an imminent danger to your life will go through several walls of sheetrock. If a round cannot even go through 6 or 7 half-inch sheets of wallboard, it isn't going to be effective at neutralizing a serious attack.
3) A well placed 9mm shot is going to be just as effective as the same shot from a .45 ACP. If you have to use a gun, use the one you are most comfortable with and train regularly. Hitting your target with a .22LR will do more for you than missing with a .44 magnum.
