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.

If you live near other people, you have to worry about the bullets going through walls, which they will. A lot of people use a pump shotgun with goose shot, meaning larger bird shot. That will only go through like 1 interior wall instead of 5-10, but it will completely destroy anyone who is close enough to be in your house

Yes but a pump shotgun has a manual of arms that you need to practice, and semis do exist but then you need to find loads that work for defense but don't over penetrate. I think the rounds I use for my VEPR in 3 gun are quail loads or field loads and 7&1/2oz.
