Ok for home defense, I have to recomend a shotgun. Handguns go through to many walls for me. Also the rack of a pump gun will get anyones attention and generaly cause an imediate retreat.

If you want a pistol and you can afford it I am a SIG man. I have a P226 in 9mm and several friends have P228, P229 and P220s wonderful guns and are right up there with the HKs.

If I had to do it all over again. I would get a .40 The reason is most of those can be modified to shoot .357 sig and 9mm with a drop in barrel and mag change.

Now I have a friend out in Pheonix who sells most guns but specializes in Glocks. (Prices are 5 - 10% over cost) http://www.glock-doc.com/ He has good prices and all you have to do is get a local FFL dealer to accept the shipment and do the paperwork $10-$25 per gun. He also works many gun shows in CA. He has the full scoop on what you can cary and what is required. As mentioned above www.packing.org has the scoop on the permits.
Hope this helps
