he's exactly right you might as well shoot em with a bb gun cause unless you work for the secret service and know where to place that round exactly (in the temple) no way you'll stop anything much bigger than a hamster. if you must must absolutely must have a gun, i would suggest what they have, a 9mm.. it's easy to carry, has enough stopping power (depending on the type of round you use) and would be fine for home protection.

just be advised... there are at least 2 dozen non lethal ways I can think of right off the top of my head to protect yourself and loved ones without a gun.

ever shot anybody with a taser?

it's really cool and (almost 100 percent of the time) wouldn't kill them or cause perm injury.

and i have to admit.. having been shot with one and having shot one... it's a whole lot more fun being on the trigger end than the other end. ;-)

best of luck with whatever you decide.. i'll only leave you with this.. if you do pull a gun.. don't do it or even point it unless you intend to empty every round in the clip and kill them without hesitation. if you're not prepared to do that.. do NOT get a gun.
