I have a 12 gauge with short barrel, loaded with buckshot for home defense, but when I think about the way the law is, I'm tempted to put that up and get a BB gun for home defense, take my chances, and hope I don't hurt him too much.
I know you're not actually thinking about this seriously, but if you ever DID think for a minute about doing that, always remember that saying...

"Better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6."

I'm sure just about everyone does not take lightly the possible circumstance of firing on someone in self-defense, but you must do what needs to be done in order to ensure that YOU are the one who gets to wake up the next morning. You must always look out for #1...
