Personally, the first thing I would grab is my trusty old shotgun loaded with buckshot. Just my two cents.

X2. Multiple targets with one or two shots sure works for me.

It makes no difference what class of firearm you grab, you had better be damned sure your ducks were in a row........remember....”I feared for my life.”

What I find interesting is that Stanley made no self-defence arguments, instead claiming that the shooting was entirely accidental -- yet his supporters universally justify the shooting as self defence.

Seems to me the subtext is, nobody believes it was an accident.

From everything I have read, a self defence defence would have likely failed .

No, like I said earlier, that Regulation is for formal ranges, like a gun club etc., where shooting is ongoing.
