Often as a patrol cop, after someone was the victim of a burglary or an assault, they would ask what my suggestion was for good home defense weapons. Now that I work in a gun store, and with the huge influx of first time gun buyers, I am getting asked that question even more often.
Keith and I took some of the most common options to the range and ran them through a shoot house, and afterward we talked about our thoughts on each of main options; shotgun, handgun or rifle (including AR pistols). We came to the same conclusion as to what we believe to be the best option.

Great info
About RDOs, even with the red dot off, you can still make effective hits at less than 10 yards as long as your target is in the window. I trained on this a few months ago and was making fatal hits every time.
Just got a VRF 14. Magazines come in 5, 9 and 19 rounds capacity. This is a 12 gauged pistol. Not only it is it fun to shoot but makes for a good self defense.
Home defense gun, beretta 92A1. One mag loaded in gun,one spare mag beside it. Live alone so won’t go on search and destroy. Will be in secure spot behind locked door with beretta aimed at door. If possible will give warning if intruders leave,good outcome,if they come through that door. Unfortunate for them.
Joe's advice will get you arrested – firing a warning shot. smh.
I had to defend myself and my handicapped mother from 4 ex-cons who attempted a home invasion. I was already on the phone with a deputy before 3 of them jumped out of their parked car and ran up the driveway. When I saw one of them running toward the side gate, I almost panicked but told the deputy I was grabbing my shotgun. I went downstairs (cell phone on speaker mode and in one of my pockets) and after pointing my shotgun at the rear French doors, one of the guys with green gloves who was about to break down or open the doors suddenly disappeared like a ghost. In retrospect, I decided that an AR-15 is best for all the reasons shown and discussed in this video. I only had a little bit of training with several platforms but I don’t know if I would have been successful in deterring 3-4 ex-cons had they all broken into my home.
Best home defense advise video I’ve seen so far 👍🏻
I works nights. (Trucker). My wife has an M&P Sport II AR15 that she can get to in a flash, she also has a Glock 19 in the nightstand. My daughter and son both have Ruger 10/22’s that they can get to in a pinch. We go and train and shoot regularly. I feel they and handle a home intruder.
If you are going to go with a shot gun you should go with the Keltek KSG.
I WISH ,LAW MAKERS WHO ARE ANTI GUNNERS OR NOT SHOULD HAVE TO GO THREW FORCE ON FORCE SHOT HOUSE REAL LIFE STYLE ,WHAT THE AVERAGE HOME OWNER GOES THREW WHEN HOME INVASIONS,BREAK IN ,PEOPLE HIGH ON DOPE LOVE THAT ASS WIPE COMMENTS ABOUT SHOOT 2SHOTS IN THE AIR LOVE HOW YOU GUYS BOTH HAD TO LOOK TO LOAD AND STRUGGLED TO LOAD SHOTGUN
For home defense I have a Springfield TRP 45 using XTP ammo.
This is an excellent video! It shows in reality, what train people have to go through using a shotgun for home defense opposed to a novice. Livelong! And please keep producing this great content.
Go see Clint!
Using a light on weapon means you sweep the traget prior to identification!,Not good!!!!!
Shot gun with 00 buck 8 to 10 sheet rock, Ar 55gr 4-5 sheet rock ( the best).
Mossburg 790A1, shoot 2 reload!
I have a CZ Scorpion with a binary trigger as my go to "bump in the night" gun
If the AR is harder to use and aim, then why do they keep saying it's so dangerous? 😂
Clown show Joe.
I have a bullpup 12g semi auto that is a great length for home defense while still having an 18" barrel to reach out and say hello if needed.
Awesome vid guy. Great flow through the course of fire.
Funny, my ACOG doesnt shut itself off. Neither does the RMR..
20:22 "The suspect lived because he was on drugs" waitafigginminit… I thought drugs were bad.
Jell, get an AR, go to the balcony and shoot 2 blasts in the air. and have 28 left in your mag just in case they do not run away. I promise you will be better off.
I carry my .40 all day but the 300 BLK SBR with integrated suppressor is my go to PDW. I'm shooting a subsonic round I made from once fired 5.7×28 brass, makes a 205 grain flat base spire point. Thin jacket expands easily. Two coupled 20 round mags are preferred to the standard 30.
Keith, get you some wireless lav mics for videos like this. Ulanzi wireless lav mics will run you about 30.00, the shotgun mic isn’t ideal in noisy environments
Does Bidens security use double barrel shotguns? I think not!
Thank you Sirs, will done!
With two young kids, having them secure but accessible is an issue for me. I keep a Glock 17 with RMR and TRL1HL in a quick access nightstand safe. In the closet I have a long gun safe with with my 11.5” AR with a simple setup of a T2 micro and Surefire scout light. Federal HST 124gr 9mm and Hornady TAP 55gr 5.56. Also keep a sling bag full of medical equipment and a big fire extinguisher in the master closet as well.
For home defense, a major concern would be overpenetration, so that would preclude high-velocity firearms like ARs, shotguns, etc. Everyone has opinions on this, and for me, my #1 home defense firearm is an FN FNX-45 Tactical (15+1), with a co-witness red-dot and tactical light. The .45 ACP round is subsonic, but it's twice the size of a 9mm, so good combination of stopping power and slower speed, so not as much overpenetration. As with other firearms, the "best" one to use is the one you've practiced with, are comfortable and competent shooting, and am willing to engage an adversary with.
