Best gun for CTB ?

[tomatopotato475]

I've researched a shotgun is the best but if any other info anyone has it would be appreciated to pm me

Yeah I'll be using a mossberg 12G. Just can't find the courage to go and buy it yet. I am in a very gun friendly Southern State. 00 buckshot for ammo

Damn bro same I live in Florida so its pretty much legal to buy without a permit, but i still have to research how to do it right.. I know they did ban 23 gauges tho. I used to do a lot of camping and outside work so I'll say the gun will be used for my new hobby - hunting.

I'm also too scared to go buy a shotgun yet. I just wonder if I buy the gun now will I impulsively use it? My CTB date is in May.
I'm in a no license necessary State, too so I know when I do go to buy it it will be a breeze. I hope.

Isn't the barrel of a shotgun too long and our arms too short to make it an effective method? If the barrel were pointing at you, would it be hard to reach the trigger? I too live in a gun friendly state but I haven't shot a shotgun in decades, so I may not know what I'm talking about here.

Shotgun is best but idk I can only picture handgun. Current plan is Glock g17

I saw some shotguns with barrels of 18'' or 20'', so positioning doesn't seem too hard?
