Oh, I was more responding in general than picking apart your comments, Dan.

Re: 'defense': IMO, if the average citizen, with average marksmanship
skills, fires a gun successfully in self-defense, it seems likely that
death is a damned good possibility; enough so that yes, it should be
assumed that defense here *will* equal killing.

Yes, we're on the same side; we agree.  :)

And I'm assuming we're only talking about single-shot handguns or rifles...
