Oleg, much of the decision making process depends on METT-T. Everybodies is different. I am a shotgun fan for in home defense from a fixed position. Wandering around the house (things that go bump in the night) I use a handgun. Anything exterior to the house is by definition either a non-event or calls for very precise shooting.
The other point is that the first thing is to have a gun. Second, have one that works. Everything else is very far down the list.
METT-T is a handy planning acronym develpoed by the military. Mission, Enemy, Terrain, Time and Troops available. Once you work through the planning (use a legal pad) the equipment part is pretty obvious.
