All firearms for self defense need to be practiced with. The macho factor always kicks-in regarding shooting someone for self defense and/ or property theft. Although I don’t have anything against it doing so will put you into a serious legal situation. ALL SHOOTINGS ARE INITIALY CONSIDERED HOMICIDES! You now have to prove that it was self defense and you believe your life was in danger.
For the house I do have short, self defense style 12 gage shotguns. None have a shell in the pipe because most people, especially thugs, know that distinctive sound of pumping one into the chamber! Many times that is all that is needed and during night time, quiet conditions you can hear that sound a long ways.
