In this day in age, it is important all law abiding citizens arm themselves. With the current state of the economy, people may be holding back on purchasing a home defense weapon. There are affordable home defense weapons you can purchase on the market right now, even for those who are trying to cut expenses. I want to create a thread where the gun owners and experts at RP Forums can post their recommendations for affordable home defense weapons. Please share your ideas!
I will start. For cheap, I recommend the Maverick 88 shotgun. I own this gun. I bought it at Wal Mart for $175 about 6 months ago. You can find these guns at your local Wal Mart, or I am sure a local gun shop will put in a special order for you. However, I did have a problem with the trigger when I first bought it, and had to send it back to the Maverick to fix the problem. This made me somewhat skeptical, but they sent it back and everything works great. This gun can be purchased as a short barrel or long barrel. I own the long barrel, but have heard good things about the short barrel too.
