Rethinking the best home defense weapons: a look at the .22

[NorthernRaider]

Mo, its also much easier to fire a 22 from the hip if an unaimed reactive / panic or suppressive fire is needed, but a heavily shortened 12 g does win hands down indoors in the vitally important INITIAL seconds of an engagement. But again a SG has only two rounds, three possibly four if you have a pump gun in the UK, so if its an incident involving anything more than chasing a burglar I would again go for the 22 with a 10, 20 or 30 round mag.
