I don't really like glocks, got my eyes on a Sig P239 Enhanced Elite 9mm, but also kinda like the Berettas for not being a burgerland company, any other brands I should be looking at, whats the least chuddiest company, I looked at the HK site and my god, they have American flags everywhere and MAGA sales.

ETA: Im in 'Commiefornia' so any gun suggestions should be able to be sold here.

Not trying to be rude, but; Shotguns are just as hard to aim as any other gun at close range. buck doesn't spread much within 5-10 feet.

Slugs won't penetrate any armor that you'll actually encounter. Level 3 soft armor will stop slugs reliably.

No rudeness detected friend. Penetration's not the be all end all at close range. Anyone who's armor "stops" a slug to the chest from like 20 feet is going to be too busy convulsing on the floor and coughing up blood to continue menacing you
