I think you will find that more "guns in the home to protect the owners" are used against them in a break in than in protection.

Think about it;

This guy has broken in and you are facing him with a gun, will you shoot and risk going to jail?

Or will he take your gun and shoot you, cos he knows this is how he escapes going to jail?

I think you would hesitate for all your big words and then he has you. Get a good securiity systema and a dog, if you really want to be safe. When I lived in my London studio, I had a door entry system that "beeped" when anyone walked through the door, sensor alarms, a big dog lead and choker and a dogs food bowl in the corner. He was "out back cos he don't like strangers"

NEVER had a break in.
