I went through this about 3 years ago.
I’d recommend a shotgun as your first / home defense weapon. I went with a KSG because it’s kinda absurdist. You’ll need a rifle too so I’d look at an AR-15 or AK47 but I lean AR since parts are probably available for it next door to where you are.
I carry an Sig P365XL as my daily.
KSG kicks hard because it is lignt, but is pretty easy to learn on. I prefer a Mossburg 590 or a Remington 870 as an introduction shotgun.
Whatever you spend on a gun, spend just as much on ammuntion, find a place, and practice.
