I would like to have a Remington 870 or 1187 with extended magazine and loaded with something larger than number 4 shot.

An AR-15 would be nice too. For a pistol, it would be a Glock 10mm full size. I can’t recall the model number off hand.

Lots of spare mags for the rifle and pistol and lots of spare shells for the shotgun.

As it is, I had to sell nearly all my guns a few years ago and have to make do with a Winchester Defender loaded with 00Buck. I have changed my mind on the shotgun load many times but always go back to the buckshot.

I really no longer have a rifle well suited to self defense and would have to make do with my old 98 Mauser in 8mm.

I have two Brownign Hi-Powers right beside me right now. within easy reach are maybe a dozen Mec-Gar and other high capacity mags.

I am probably OK except I need to get another rifle.

That 8mm will do fine, trust me.

That'd be the model 20. I'm growing very fond of mine. Only one spare mag and I've got 30 rounds. Just a touch bulky, though, and I still haven't found the perfect holster.

Given the choice, I'll opt for a long gun every time. An AR with a red dot will take me to 200 meters. Outside of that it isn't self-defense anymore - I'm hunting Johnny Jihadi, he isn't hunting me, and I have plenty of hunting rifles that will get me there. Those are just my personal solutions. YMMV
