10 Gauge is an obsolete duck-hunting round, 12 Gauge 3.5" Shells have replaced it.

Ignoring the fact that it is tactically disadvantageous to engage a dozen units upfront and assuming you mean that the enemy had unforseen reinforcements which have cut off all viable escape routes?
Well, you want to take up a defensive position behind cover, and call for reinforcements of your own, then hold the line as best as you can until they arrive. If you're going to go down either way, then give 'em heck and tack as many of 'em with you as possible.
As far as being prepared for such a scenario goes, — or as prepared as you can be for a desperate situation — there are a few options... You could carry a 12 Gauge that takes detachable box magazines, a NY Reload, a or a BUG which offers similar performance such as a S&W Model 500. If all else fails, that's when you draw your knife.
Fortunately, the most common adversary one is likely to encounter on the mean streets are the infamous Crackerjack Boys, who are generally known to be less than well trained fighters, not to mention terrible shots due to their unorthodox method of aiming down the flats of the slide while taking haphazardous shots in your general direction with shaky hands due to their crippling chemical dependency on caramel-coated popcorn with salted peanuts mixed in.
