As for the civil trial after the criminal trial, no matter what weapon or ammo you used the door is open for you to be sued by the perp or his/her family. So you will most likely spend that fee on the lawyer anyway.
I'm no fan of Mas and have always wondered how he became an expert on the subject?

What room am I in? I'll reach somewhere and come up with something. Been cleaning the house lately, seems more like a job for EOD sometimes. 
I pity the normal people that just find change and chapstick in the sofa, I often find a pistol I forgot I had.
Smoke, I see you are a lefty with good taste in shotguns. Where did you get that leather buttcuff? Must have one!

Right now my SA Mil spec lives by the bed.
The Mosin M38 within arms reach.
The CZ-75 follows me around the house sometimes.

I live in a home that is above average size and longest shot I may wind up being forced to take is on the verge of 25 yards(not feet).
Experience from hunting, casual shooting, and 3gun competition shooting has led me to the AR15 as the home defense firearm of choice.
I would much prefer to have the light recoiling and ACCURATE fire of the carbine should I wind up facing an immediate threat to my life from some intruder at the end of the hallway that might get off a lucky shot if they are armed with a firearm. Identify target, identify threat, make decision to shoot or not. Would rather do it with the AR15 than with a handgun or shotgun which may be a liability at that range.
Ofcourse I'd ditch the bayonet. This is just an updated picture of what was once a post-94 compliant rifle. Had to "evil up" the rifle once the ban sunset.

did I forget to mention the Smart Lab(Growls mennacingly... and knows to warn mommy and daddy, oh and barks kinda funny outside but just wags away)... the mini Mastiff (huge lab - he don't do much - but a 109 lbs of lab in an evil black coat is threatening according to the postal lady), the skeered Yeller lab (runs like a rabit - but looks mean doing it and barking like crazy), the two real Mastiffs(one in evil black w/ a SMALL bit of apricot brindle in it, the other a fawn w/ an evil black face), a couple a boxers... (Both agile and loud barkers) and the lil portable mini alarms? (a Shi-zu and a Boston Terrier)
Edit - not to mention the bark-boxes outside... its funny - after a while - you can distinguish the "its a cow" bark from "someone is pulling up bark" to the "something is there" bark =)
heh - I know they are lible to lick you to death (have a door rug that says "WARNING: Dog can't hold its licker") but even a bark from some of those dogs would make me think twice... and the lil one's go off soon after that.... did i mention that trying to walk through four dogs averaging 150 lbs in order to rob a place is not indicitive of success?
Needless to say - it would be hard to imagine continuing into the house that had that mess comming at you... hell - its hard to walk through the kitchen when i get home.... and they KNOW me... <hehehe>
oh - and all the black evil references are in reference to those "evil black guns" not anything someone might be thinking.. just in case... <sigh>
J/Tharg!

Black Talon,
That is one beautiful Springfield.
I have a liitle less model on my side.
I understand the civil law suit will follow anyhow, but less ammo for the lawyer the better for me. especially living in a state like California.

dude, at least go tactical/aluminum
Tacticle aluminum!?!?
Naw... keep it solid... - oh and put a big nail or two through the end....
.... when does a bat become more than a bat by law? <snicker>
wonder if its painted black if that would make it more evil in court....
"your honor, he painted the bat black and put several nails through the bat in order to make it more deadly - thus it was pre-meditated"
"Uhm... painting it black makes it pre-meditated?"
"Yes your honor, you see - things that are black are meant for evil purposes and when the defendant did this he was clearly attempting to do evil to my client after my client broke into his house."
"erm.... permeditated.... hmmm... "

Go with the aluminum so you atleast broadcast to the entire household when you've hit a home run.
Hitting a cranium with wood must be sorta a dull "thud" sound, kinda like dropping a bowling ball on concrete.
But an aluminum bat... that "dink" that we all here whenever a solid hit is made in softball, that's a certain crowd pleaser.
