Rounds of choice for home defense

[pshift]

Remington #4 buckshot in my Mossy 590A tactical, with some secondary slugs if things go south. Also, have 9mm Sig-V and HST hollow points for the 9mm and good old .223/5.56 in various combinations and grains for the crowd of zombies.

That is a devastating round.

Pistol .300blk, once I get a suppressor it will be loaded with subsonic rounds.

Have a suppressed AR pistol 5.56 and suppressed 1911 in 10mm as my night stand gun setup.

As for a shotgun I stopped keeping my 870 loaded in favor of my side by side hammer coach. The hearing protection issues I have taken care of with my nightstand guns go away when I pick up a scattergun.

If need be, I like the idea of being able to use 2 mini shotgun shells in it and dropping it in favor of the AR or 1911 after punching a hole in the threat.

I plan to get a Staccato P with suppressor in the future, it would be my primary everything in 9mm.
I have also been toying with the idea of either braced kriss vector pistol in 10mm or the PSA x5.7 when it drops.

I have been having an issue with suppressing my 9mm pistols. Both the prodigy and the poly 80 don’t like to go back into battery with a suppressor. I don’t have that issue with the 45ACP or 10mm pistols.

I have a few carbines in 9 I run suppressed. I really haven’t played with the 5.7 carbine and pistol since the prices of 5.7 ammo exceeded a dollar a round. I have 5.7 Ammo to run them when I want to but, the 5.7 is a PIA to reload so they don’t get shot much.

I got to shoot a buddy's Berretta 1301 yesterday. A magnificent gun, I want one very badly now. It was so light and handy I think it would make a fantastic home defense gun, to me it felt similar in weight to a lightly equipped AR. Bit of a shoulder thumper yet not obnoxiously so.
What do we think the better stock configuration is- pistol grip or traditional? The one I shot was the traditional style but it felt great.

I like the traditional setup because it's aesthetically pleasing but the pistol grip will give you something to control recoil if pieing corners with the stock ontop of your shoulder to temp reduce barrel exposure.
