Get a 12 ga. pump shotgun - Mossberg 500 or similar, less than $250 new.

Obviously no expert.
Mossberg used to make a .410 called the HD410. It was a 6-shot 410 built on a smaller plastic stock. Easier for a smaller person to handle. It had a pistol grip on the forend with a laser built in that was activated when you grabbed the grip.
THe good thing about a .410, by the way, is that it lacks the power to penetrate 2 sheets of drywall with enough energy to hurt your sleeping kids. pets. or domestic servants in the next room.
When you're sprayin' lead in the house, in a fit of Ramboism, you don't want to take out the rest of the family too.
Probably.
