Rule #1: Have a gun
My personal HD gun is a Colt King Cobra. I certainly don't feel undergunned.

Since it's for home and not carry, I would go for something that holds six, like a Smith & Wesson K-frame. You can get security company trade-ins (Model 10 or Model 64) from J&G in the $200-$250 range.
I keep a 3" gp100 in a small safe loaded with .38+p's. Its just so happens I lucked out and got the smoothest trigger sturm ruger ever pulled out. No kidding, its freakishly smooth.
i opted to place my "six" in a secondary roll . i live in a mobile home park and with neighbors literally all around me penetration played a major role in my decision to go with a pump full of birdshot. maybe we should start a thread on the special requirements of trailer trashI sleep much better with my old Security Six loaded with .357 HP's within reach.
Leave a completely loaded hi-cap magazine sit for a few years with the springs slowly weakening and and you have a reliability issue.
My home revolver is a 4" Model 10 loaded with the FBI Load and I don't have a reload handy.So put me at ease ladies and gentlemen. How many of you use a revolver as your sole means of home defense?

More thinking to do on my part.
