Hi, I'm going to pick up a Mossberg 500 tactical cruiser "breacher" at my local gun show on the 25 of may.

I plan to use it for home defense, it is a 12ga, 6 shot pistol grip, 18.5in barrel. They have it at my local gun shop for 350$, but I'm positive I can haggle with the gun show people and get it for cheaper. I plan on moding it, no gun smithing, just a extended clip, a forward grip and a ar type stock. Before I purchase this weapon, I wanted to ask a few questions.
What is the max effective range (dist) with this weapon using a slug and buckshot?
Is the "breacher" actually safe for the shooter without wearing body armor? (shrapnel/wood splinters)
Is a red dot/scoped needed for this weapon at a moderate range using slugs?
What is a decent adjustable stock to buy for this (non side collapsable)
Extended clip (10rd drum) Does it require gunsmitthing?
Is the 350$ price, is this price to high or low?
The forward grip, what is a decent one to buy?
What ammo is ideal for HD?
