The situation only got resolved when police with RIFLES came on to the scene.

Not a good example. First, one BG was taken out by a pistol, and the other one was taken out by rifle at a distance of about 50 feet. Either could have been taken out with a shotgun if the operator had the right ammo and knew how to use it. One might also note that the BGs, armed with rifles, both died at the scene. Nothing against rifles for SHTF, but the North Hollywood shoot doesn't offer much support for the idea.
AS for TEOTWAWKI, that is quite different than SHTF. A good .22 with a couple of boxes of ammo might be the best choice for that.
