Reco for first Gun?

I like Glocks for simplicity and reliability. They just work. A Glock 19 would be a good choice if you want a "full size" in 9mm. Technically it's a compact

Try the 17 if you really want a full size. I personally carry a 26 (subcompact) every day and like it very much.

Someone asked about a shotgun... the Remington 870 is a good one. I'f you're looking for something to fill a home defense roll I'd get the 870 Express. 18" barrel and extended capacity tube.

Whatever you get make sure you take the time to learn it inside and out and practice, practice, practice!

I couldnt say it any better than this.

I have the Glock 26 (9mm) and the Glock 27 (.40mm). For home defense, I have the Remington 870, nothing's gonna scare an intruder like the sound of me cycling my shotgun, and placing that slug or buckshot in the chamber getting ready to put some heat in that azz..
