So I live in a major city, alone, and feel I should probably have some type of firearm in the home just in case someone tries to break in. My state is open carry, but this gun will be for home protection only.
I'm not a gun expert by any means, but I grew up in Texas firing rifles. In grade school, most of my friends already had their own .22 rifles. I've fired shotguns, rifles, but never a handgun.
For my home defense needs, I'm leaning towards a shotgun for a few reasons, but am willing to consider a handgun. I'm hoping some of the flood's more gun savvy members can offer some advice or suggestions. Thanks.

It's decent in accuracy at around 25 meters, which is more than enough. Remember to have a blank upon the first shot as a warning.
