More stopping power than a 9? Put hollow points in, squeeze 5 times, and if he hasn't stopped, you probably need hand grenades.

Seriously, for home, I fully believe a Mossberg shotgun is the ultimate home defense.

For carrying, I love a 357 magnum, but hated the weight of it, and went with a couple LEO friend's advice and picked up a "feather weight" Kel Tec 9mm and barely noticed at all day today.

My only complaint is the thing is really stiff, but I hear it gets better with a little breaking in.
