I have a 4" GP100 for a house gun. I have $450 to spend on another weapon, which will also be used for home defense for a single-family dwelling. I'm not sure whether a shotgun (short 12ga pump) or another handgun (probably a semi-auto 9mm) would be better. Some people would say to spend the money on practice ammo and training for the existing weapon, but I've had some training and have spent enough time at the range to feel pretty good about inside-the-bedroom distances with the big revolver.
Seems like the shotgun would provide decisive firepower - but is that more valuable than having continual access to a smaller concealed weapon?
