I think we're the only 2 people that think this way. A pistol with a good caliber is the best HD weapon due to its ease in maneuverability, easier to shoot compared to a shotgun and easy storage.Any long gun is a potential disadvantage in home defense be it a shotgun, carbine or rifle.
There's nothing wrong with a good caliber pistol for HD. Rifles and shotguns do have a lot more power and are easier for some people to aim and shoot under stress. There's a reason military and LEO don't transition to their pistols when clearing houses (not advocating that you should clear your house). I think an 11.5" AR with a suppressor would be about ideal for a handy HD gun but I'll probably stick with a shotgun.I think we're the only 2 people that think this way.

While sniffed at by the experts, a .410-bore shotgun loaded with birdshot possesses more close-range stopping power than any popular handgun caliber
More controllability
Faster (at all but point blank range; this has been tested)
