Well, some can offer better advice, but

9mm pistol because you can get ammunition anywhere,;

.45 pistol for stopping power….whatever you hit will go down;

12 gauge if shotgun, nice for close up…
20 gauge for distance runners…

AR15 for hunting men, not really good for game…

30.06 with scope for distance shooting

BUT

If you really don’t need a weapon don’t get it. Statistics say that you’re more than likely to be more of a threat to yourself or someone close to you.

Take care.
