Hello, my wife is very proficient with our handguns but I'd like her to have the option of a long gun for HD.
I usually keep my 870 next to the bed, but she can't stand the recoil and won't practice with it. Before I start looking into the effects of a Knoxx stock and other recoil-reducing efforts, I wanted to look into other options for her.
Would a pistol caliber carbine be a good choice? I would like your opinions on effectiveness, danger of overpenetration, concerns, etc.
I know a trusty 12ga is about the best bet for HD, but tell me what our other options are for her long gun. Thanks.
