Top 5 Best Guns for Home Defense — Rock Island Armory
When it comes to home defense, choosing the right firearm for your household is crucial. With so many models and ammunition options on the market, making the decision may feel overwhelming. Advantages and disadvantages of home defense guns can be hard to judge without more information.
What really makes these guns different? We’ll answer that for you, but the best way to find out is to try them for yourself.
“You've got to go out — you've got to try firearms,” explained John McClain from Team Armscor. “You have to get rounds down range with them, so you can figure out if you can handle them and if they feel comfortable to you.”
Consider shotguns, pistols, or revolvers and which is right for you. Here are a few questions you should ask yourself when you’re trying out home defense weapons:
- Are you comfortable with this gun?
- Do you feel comfortable manipulating it and dropping the magazine?
- Can you reach the magazine or slide release?
- Are the serration cuts enough for you to grip the slide effectively?
- Does this gun have the stopping power I need?
With these questions in mind, weigh the pros and cons and choose the best gun for home defense in your situation.
