Is a shotgun a good home self-defense weapon?

Does a shotgun have an advantage over a handgun, for home self defense?
What is the shortest barrel that is legal, and it's performance in home self-defense?

Its not good, its great. a security model will have an 18.5" barrel. Avoid the models that only have a pistol grip, they are hard to control and aim, and despite what some believe, you do have to 'aim' a shotgun at defensive ranges within your home. A 20 or 12 ga is fine, the 20 ga will be plenty effective with less recoil. there is much debate over buckshot vs birdshot. I personally prefer small buckshot like #2 or #4, its heavier than birdshot so it penetrates deeper, reaching vitals and stopping an attacker.

what Caribbean islands can you own a handgun for self defense?

this would be for living there full time not a vacation.

I know some people can acquire a hand gun here in Barbados but for protection and not self-defense. You would have to be a dealing with lots of cash or special services as far as I know. You would have to apply with the Royal Barbados Police Force and they will probably do an assessment before you get it. You also have to go to the Barbados Rifle and Pistol Federation for practice. I may be wrong but this is information I gathered.
