So the shotgun is IMHO the round for the home. For carrying i'd vote for the 9 mm as the minimum.

I'll agree with that...shotgun at home. If I got a carry permit, not sure...kind of a tossup between 9mm or a snubby .357 magnum wheel gun, probably Smith.
Love my Hi-Power, but it's a bit bulky for carry.
