As most probably caught, Amouranth had a home invasion in an attempt to rob her crypto. Husband shot one robber and the rest fled.
Colion does a half hour rundown with them both, at their house and using security camera footage as well.
If nothing else this is the kind of stuff that can help mainstream 2A and self defense going forward. Also is an excellent illustration of how shit a defensive situation is, cause almost nothing went "right", but the outcome ended well.
Kienan is right, AR-15 or Carbine are the better option.
An AR-15 with varmint rounds will over-penetrate the least, but if you need to penetrate a car or push out to 500 yards, any decent 5.56 of your choice will do fine.
A Carbine can have very low re-coil and come perfect paired with a pistol
Hand guns will be the only weapon instantly accessible if you carry it, but it's actually the hardest weapon to learn.
Shotguns are fantastic fight-stoppers. However, they have heavy recoil are not typically loaded with magazines, and they can deafen and blind you when they go off in a dark room inside your house if you just woke up from a bump in the night. I'm actually only grabbing a shotgun if I know I'm going into hell. If I know I'm dealing with 5 armed dudes, yeah, the shotgun is my best force multiplier.
I would honestly recommend a pistol & carbine as a perfect pair, because you can start making choices if you need to. The pistol is what you'll carry all day, and the carbine you can grab (with better penetration ammo if you need it) in the event you have to take on something more serious. You can also pass off the carbine to your wife or kid and be fine.
