Handgun for me.
A long gun, even a sawed-off shotgun, may be hard to wield in the sometimes cramped rooms of a house. It's the first thing around a corner and lends itself to being grabbed. It usually takes two hands to operate, and you may not have that freedom.
A handgun has the tactical advantage inside a house, and it usually holds more rounds. It can easily be a one-handed weapon if need be.
Granted, a 12 ga. shotgun is nothing to mess with, but I still go to the handgun.
