As far as a shotgun goes I too agree that they are very effective, provided you know their limitations as well as their capabilities. They are good for room defense but can be a hindrance when doing a search of the property. The barrel sticks out so a perp standing behind a corner could grab it and you are in for the fight of your life. Plus it takes two hands to operate it so unless you have a flashlight attached to it you'll be walking in the dark. If you choose a shotgun the Mossberg is probably the least expensive high quality shotgun. You want to get one with an 18 to 20 inch barrel. The 18 inch barrel model is what we use at work (Dept. of the Army Police).
