I want to mention that don't have a false sense of security with birdshot in a shotgun. Two reasons for this. #1 is that it can go throw common household materials and injure your family/neighbor ect. #2 there is a reason why they call it bird shot. It is not the best for self defense, thus the reason for 00 or 000 buckshot. Believe it or not the 223 loaded with 55 grain tap rounds have less penetration that some handguns! Not saying that it would be ideal for clearing a house but I would stick with a handgun in 9mm, 40, 45 and find a load that will suit your needs. I would stay away from magsafe and glaser thats just me. Esox357.
