accurate enough for 25 yard+ shots

want it to be somewhat of a "throw away" since, if I ever have to use it, I will probably lose it to the Police, OR, if its stolen, I wont be out $3000.

My thinking is, "these days" a handgun just seems so inadequate for a truck gun. Long shots seem more likely? Love the Springfield AR "pistol" but pricey

am I just being paranoid?
I WOULD CONSIDER A USED MOSSBERG 12 GA PUMP, WHICH ARE READILY AVAILABLE--ALONG WITH A VARIETY OF USED BARRELS--FOR REAL CHEAP MONEY. THESE ARE ROBUST AND RELIABLE GUNS.....

IF YOU ARE WILLING TO SPEND A BIT MORE. YOU CAN PURCHASE A BRAND NEW MOSSBERG MAVERICK 88, 12GA PUMP FOR LESS THAN $200. THIS WEAPON IS VERY VERSATILE. AND IT IS MARKETED AND BILLED AS "AN ALL PURPOSE SHOTGUN".....
