I disagree that you should never use a pistol for home defense. If someone feels comfortable with a shotgun then more power to them. I think it’s a good home defense weapon, but a little cumbersome indoors. As a personal preference I’ll take a handgun. I don’t live in an apartment. So the chances of a stray round hitting someone outside my home is slim. If it means defending my family I’ll take that chance. Handgun ammunition isn’t particulary powerful and using hollowpoints it tends to lose even more pentetration ability. It would likely loose a lot of energy if a bullet were to find a bystander.
