Opinion on HD shotgun

So I'm reading all these posts about home defense shotguns, mostly on the 870 and the 500 or 590 and now I want one. So gets to thinking about turning my 11-87 into a HD gun. Knight of Light shows me a 21" barrel so now I'm really thinking. Whats everyones opinions on using a semi-auto for HD? I like the regular stock/grip so I'm thinking I'd just need the barrel and night sights. My gun is 4+1.

It should work just fine. 4 + 1 is the same capacity I have in my Benelli Nova. I seriously doubt more capacity would be needed for home defense.

Your shotgun is a HD shotgun now. And it's one that won't get you crucified in front of a jury.

Cliff notes? All right, the instant gratification with no effort generation!

Any gun can be a HD gun if thats all you have. I cant wield the 28" barrel effectively in my tight space so at bare minimum I'd need to get a shorter barrel.
