Guns by the yard...or meter..

There are different ways to look at the type of gun you need. For today I'd like to compare guns by the yard i.e. what handgun, shotgun, long-gun, would you use for the following ranges. I don't necessarily own all of these guns now, but I may shortly (unless I change my mind). Also, they should be legal to own. Change the yardage if you don't like the way I broke it out.

(topic has been edited combining former 1&2)


1.) 0-25 yards - Glock 23

2.) 25 - 100 yards - Rem 870 HD 18", Vang comp & ported, Fed low recoil tactical slugs and 00 buck. Or Kel-tec Sub 40.
