Then you have the political fall out angle. Cops, prosecutors, and even neighbors get in on the "oh my God an assault rifle!" bandwagon and could possibly be a bad outcome. Shotguns and handguns are more benign in that regard.
Thank you medic15al,

I appreciate the response. I am thinking the 9mm and the shotgun (with the right ammo) will be good too. Lots of different response online. Like I said, I am concerned for my neighbors.

I do like the shotgun too with my flashlight.
