(36,699 posts)27. I like my Springfield XDM .40 cal. it is accurate easy to operate and
has a light recoil in my opinion. Some people don't like them because there is no manual safety but in a situation
like you were in you wouldn't want to pull the trigger and find you forgot to release the safety. Just make sure if you
have children they can't get their hands on it. Just an observation here about whenever someone suggests maybe the AR-15
or similar weapons should be banned. The discussion always ends up how I need one for home defense. After all these recommendations on the weapon you should buy for home defense not one single person has recommended an AR-15
or anything like that.

Is it your opinion that a gun kept in the home is more dangerous to the occupants...

Glocks, Springfields, the Smith & Wesson M&P, the FN FNS, etc. are all good choices.
