Shotgun Self Defense

This morning's Guns and Ammo E-Newsletter had this article about the Mossberg's 590A1 pump shotgun. The article talks about how the 590A1 may just be a perfect choice for enforcing the "Castle Doctrine."

Shotguns have long been the gold standard for self-defense (or offense) in close quarters, and with good reason. Handguns are handy, but nothing says hello like a 12 gauge. The Mossberg 590A1 sits high on--if not atop--the list of pump-action home-defense possibilities. The gun is available in dozens of configurations and has inspired a long list of accessories that make it particularly suited for repelling boarders.

It is easily customized to your personal preferences and an MSRP of less than $550, this shotgun makes home self defense affordable.
