With plenty of uncertainty and political turmoil, I’ve seen many people looking into guns for personal and community defense for the first time. So I’m making this post to help answer questions you may have!

Frankly if it ever gets to the point I’m using it, I know I won’t have a reason to use it at long range - I wouldn’t shoot at someone in the middle of street, they’d have to both be a threat and at my door. I could never hit a target past 200 yards anyway. If you’re in a confrontation with one person, neither of you need much ammo to resolve the situation. If you against multiple people, you’d be lucky to get a shot off before an entire armed group does. In short, if I need to fire, it will be at short range, and it needs to count.
I’d expect a pump-action would be easier to get operator error with, is there a specific semi-auto you’d suggest?
That’s fair…but don’t sell yourself short on how well you can do even if it’s only on the range for fun.
Mossburg 990 and 940, Beretta A300 and 1301. Benelli M4 is also nice but the price is the biggest barrier there.
What features made you pick those over other options?
Capacity, barrel length, availability and well known companies that are likely to follow through with warranty requests
Gotcha, thanks for your help
