You should perhaps start going through the many threads already started about various weapons, and reading up on guns before making that decision. Going down to a nearby range and talking getting some first hand experience might also be a good start.

...well it would be like deciding if a truck is better than a moped or otherwise.

There is no correct answer- each has its own inherent purpose.

gurav kumar ,
bro you are asking irrevalent questions . Handgun or Shotgun ? Either of them serve different purpose . So it all depends on indiviual requirement and purpose.

if you are looking for home protection or for your farm house. you can go for a shotgun. if you move around a lot with cash/valuables or have a threat for life while on the move a hand gun would be better..


as others have said you need to know what you are looking for.. also a shotgun cost as little as 5K whle a good handgun can cost as high as 12lacs.. so you decide..
