I never think of a shotgun as a home defence weapon, I just hunt with it. But at the risk of being highly repititve it is one of the largest firearms you can still buy, mine kicks like a horse but it does a number to what ever animal is down range of me.
I don't know what you plan to do with a shotgun, nor do I know how big you are. If you are planing to use it like a "sniper rifle" well that is just plain not going to work (read more about shotguns if you dont know why). And if you are one of those 6'5 95lb a 10+ lb shotgun with slugs is not going to work well with you.
A shotgun is far from the best anti-human weapons. But it makes a dandy bird gun.
If you are just in the anti-human dept I will not help as I don't care for the thought.
