... Well I would hope the drug runners or pirates you run into dont have their AKs pointed at you already... dont forget they fire back. Thats why I would say yes to a shotgun with buckshot for maybe mostly close to american shore, but if you are worried about more than a little breaking and entering with some theft, like a hostage thing or just taking of your boat by force a rifle is better... Problems on aiming and corrosion should be taken into account so reliability and practice on the boat is a good idea... thats my take

And yeah I read those other posts just reiterating and adding my $0.02
