I've been looking into shotguns for home defense and could use some advice. I'm debating between a 12-gauge and a 20-gauge. I know the 12-gauge packs a punch, but I've read that the 20-gauge has less recoil and might be more manageable in tight spaces. What do you think?
Also, what barrel length do you guys recommend? I've seen some with longer barrels that seem cool, but I worry about maneuverability. Is a shorter barrel better for home defense?
I'm also interested in your favorite models or brands. I'm after something that's straightforward and reliable. Lastly, how crucial is training? I've shot shotguns casually, but if I'm going to use one for defense, what kind of practice should I focus on?
