      If it's one gun and strictly for home defense, I'd get a 12 gauge shotgun. It's the first gun I would grab if I heard someone, i keep 5 00 buck followed by 2 3" slugs. If you plan on using it to carry as well get a good 9mm or compact .45.

          if you're a total noob to guns a shotgun will be best choice, the odds of a new gun owner even hitting a moving target with a 9mm pistol (ie a home invader) with adrenaline running through your body are slim to none

              smith-wesson single action 357 revolver. it will take 38 so it doesn't have as much kick. Also use hollow points so doesn't jump as much.

                        Even after telling the guy in one store last week that I have zero knowledge, every time i asked a question he's speaking a foreign language.

                        Hence the reason I'm asking for advice here.

                        Thanks much to everyone
                        Better to feel dumb and get good info from those with experience than some of he posters here. Tell them to talk to you like their kid when explaining things. You will catch on quicker than you think and you will want to learn everything about whatever you purchase.

                          Let me know if you want to do business man

                          HMAN are you a collector???
                          We have a full collection but why would I want to sell a gun to a middle aged, angry, loser in life white guy? Their track record with accumulating guns is not good.

                            Good thing is you don't miss much, bad thing is you'll destroy a lot of stuff and be deaf for quite some time.
                            Just hope it's not the teenage kid sneaking in late.

                                  I will give you the attention you desperately seek Casper . If I were to be so ignorant as to do a drive by on something, such as your family a single pass would wipe out your gene pool. Even Stevie wonder couldn’t miss your people. Smallest one is 320 lbs.

                                          Stick to the big brands and buy a model that's been proven in use by the military and law enforcement agencies for decades, and make sure to do your research and buy ammo that feeds reliably in them.

                                          Last thing you want to happen is to have your self-defence gun jam up when an assailant is rushing you in the dark.

                                          And no, you don't want an AR-15 or other high velocity gun if you want to preserve your hearing and the lives of others within the same walls.

                                                        Mossberg 500 pumps are cheap and very effective. Just use a low-brass trap load with a modified choke......can't miss and won't endanger anyone else in the house with wall penetration. Prolly still a couple hundy out the door. Grab a mec reloader and reload your hulls.
