Do those 2 things and you should be just fine. You might still find yourself sued for wrongful death, but you have a good chance of winning. The bigger the gun the better, you only want to shoot once. The last thing you want to do is try to explain to the police or a jury why the guy you just killed was shot eight times.

And there isn't any handgun that is going to be better for home protection than a shotty, keep that in mind.
