The goal of using lethal force in self-defense is to end the attack. More
power is going to help that cause much more effectively than multiple

That's fine. If your mission profile requires a cannon, drag around a
cannon.

But don't confuse "more power" with "stopping power" cause it just
ain't so.

And if you have a drugged up prep in your house why confront him with
a handgun when a shotgun is available?

This bears repeating -- a handgun is the least effective, least
powerful firearm in the civilian arsenal. The only reaosn we have
handguns is for the portability, period.

If you are in defensive mode (such as in your house), you should be
reaching for a shotgun, with the handgun as backup.

Why not a rifle? Penetration, blast, and long barrel.
