Haven't read the thread, but I will offer this advice. I've actually been indoors once when a 12 gauge was negligently discharged (yes, I'm the idiot and I've told the story here many times). First, I was completely stunned and disoriented after the gun fired. It was so loud, my ears ringed for a few days afterwards. I was so looped out, someone could have walked over to me, pushed me over with 1 hand, and disarmed me. Granted, I didn't have the adrenaline dump going thru me that you would expect to have if someone was about to put you in a life or death situation. Second, Number 2 steel shot (which I kept loaded for self defense so it wouldn't over penetrate) actually made it thru 4 drywall walls and some clothes. I was very lucky it didn't go into an adjacent apartment.
