Ahh, the yorkshireman's weapon of choice!

After you have knocked him out then put this t-shirt on him.
Then leave him in the shambles and watch the tourists rip him apart when the
coaches arrive and he has nothing to give.

3. More then likely, when you use this thing, it will be late at night, dark, and you'll be waking up out of bed. Point being, Aiming will be more difficult, you dont aim a shotgun, you point it...

Shotgun still needs to be aimed and will have a tight grouping in close quarters, so that idea is out - that is unless you have only an illegal 5" barrel or something. THen it sprays everywhere forward. 18" barrel, and well, you get the idea.

On your choise of ammo, change to buck 01 instead of 00. It will do the same job on whomever is attacking you, but it will also be unlikely to kill your neighbors, unlike 00. 00 penetrates more than a .45. 01 does not.

Just my two cents. If you need to see for yourself, visit The Box of Truth. They put 01 and 00 through the test. If I remember correctly, the 00 penetrated a massive 12 walls.

My personal answer to the question - whatever is handy and close by. Preferably, the uglier, the better too - for the psychological factor of course. :D If it's heavy and potentially damaging - this is good. If it slices too - that is even better. Really good is that it has bullets. Great is if it comes equipped with a high capacity mag too!!!

I think birdshot with a full choke will stop anyone and other penetration worries are settled.

I would have a three layer defense system. Firstly...I'd have claymores layed in areas where intruders are most likely to come from, operated by trip wires. Secondly, I'd have IR guided automated gatling gun turrets, followed by me with DAO12 (the automatic shotgun from BF2?)

Lol...in reality I suppose a trusty side arm, say a pistol. Or if I was feeling adventurous perhaps the forementioned shotgun.
