Anybody know anything about gun laws in CR, specifically pistols for home defense?

I don't know anything about CR gun laws, but, if you are looking for home defense, I would seriously consider a 12 Gauge shot gun. I would load it with No.6 birdshot. If you are upfront and personal you will not regret it. A lot of people reccomend 00 buckshot, so it just sails thru the wall into the next condo, apartment or whatever. A lot of messy clean up and pending lawsuits, jail or whatever. There is nothing like the sound of snick/snack of a round going into the chamber of a 12 gauge.
NO. 6 will do just fine, and a lot times you don't have to worry about laws regarding handguns.
Oh and make sure you put a full choke cylinder in.

Oh Yeah, I almost forgot, just point, click and shoot.
