I have a pump shotgun for home

the shotgun will pretty much kill or at least drop the perp with one
shot if I hit his body between the shoulders and the groin.

I still never understood why they think an untrained person trying to
maneuver over 2 feet of gun around in the confines of a house is
better than a handgun. I do understand they are harder hitting, if you
actually hit anything. There certainly is not going to be much of a
pattern at typical home distances, even with an 18" cylinder bore.
It is all academic in Maryland anyway. If you shoot someone, you are
probably going to jail. It is an "obligation to retreat" state, even
inside your home. You are legally obligated to run away, it there is
any chance at all of you having a way out. In that regard a single
shot .22 may be as good as an M60 because you have to justify every
round from scratch. Oh and don't get too carried away defending
yourself with your bare hands. Each punch is the same way. The first
punch may be self defense but the second could be aggravated assault
... or murder. I know a guy who found that out the hard way.
Harry could run and hide in the creek back behind his house where the owls hang out. or hide under
the hay in his Maryland Red Barn.

Or hop on his imaginary yacht and set the GPS for Costa Rica.
