If I may add something...

You really should consider setting up an appointment to talk with someone concerning the laws in your State and jurisdiction concerning deadly force. And, that someone ideally will be your local prosecutor. This is the person you're going to be getting up close and personal with in the event--God forbid--you have to use a firearm against another human being.

I also highly recommend getting a copy of "In the Gravest Extreme" by Massad Ayoob. Lots of folks can talk to you about what happens up to and including the shooting. Massad talks about that--and what happens AFTER the shooting.
