I think the G19 would be best. The reason is that the OP is on a $500 budged and a G19 can have a light attatched to do duty at home, and a holster purchased to carry. You can't carry an 870 so well. The G19 will fulfill home-defence and CCW roles. If the OP had a bigger budget, I would say a G19 and an 870P would be a GREAT combo.

Okay... you hide behind the drywall while I hide behind a concrete one. We'll see who gets shot first.

Ah, I didn't see that OP wanted something within a budget.

Love the 870.

Better than a bullet ricocheting all over the place. Besides, if they're hiding around the corner, then I can shoot through the wall/corner with a slug.

When I think 870, I visualize the 870 shotgun. I have a Remington 870.

Rem. 870 FTW.
I got one too.
Great shotguns, cheap and reliable!!
Also there are a lot of "bolt-ons" (sorry couldn't resist) for them.
Here is a pic of mine.

my fav recently has been the XD40, i liked it a lot but it's not on that list. also, i have only shot a handful (no pun intended) of those guns you have listed so it's hard for me to say what's the best out of those.

Yeah handguns

Belgian made Browning High Power in 9mm.

Sig Sauer Mosquito camo in .22 with threaded barrel. I have a supressor that is interchangeable with my CZ model 452.


I am a Sig fan, but you can't go wrong with an XD(M) or H&K.

This is why I carry a 9mm and practice often. With the regular practice, I am more likely to hit. With the 9mm, I get more chances to hit (as opposed to a .40 or .45)
The problem is that the agency or department doesn't have the time or money to have the cops at the range all the time. Shooting at the range is a luxury for civilians. I'm all about supporting more range days.
