nope. I see no need to go with a shorter barrel. it's fine just the way it is. :)
I think you would see that differently if you try to employ the shotty in a hallway or multiple doorways.

My 590 is 18 inches and I get annoyed with it in my house from time to time. Anything over 20" would absolutely drive me nuts when trying to move around the house.

I have the 18.5" "tactical" version of that gun and its just about perfect for home defense. I picked up a longer 22" ventrib barrel for 3-gun but never even used it. it fits in the double case perfectly so it is right next to the AR when needed.
Are you going to bring the wood furniture with you when you move?
