For home defense there are a few things you should consider......First and foremost is do you have a family that lives with you? If you do a shotgun is a terrible defense weapon since an intruder could very easily get a family member of yours in between them and you. In this case I'd much prefer an AR with a laser sight.

If it's the shotgun I prefer the pump

Good bullets properly placed always work, but not everyone knows what good bullets are, or can reliably place them in the field
