A Taurus brand Snake gun (pistol) that shoots a 410 snake load i.e 4 discs and 12 BB’s would have assured a trip to the graveyard, not jail.

At the distances such tools are designed to be used, .410 loaded with #3 buckshot wqould do a more efficient job. Six or nine .22 caliber lead pellets traveling at more than 900 feet per second aids ‘gun control’ ... see cartoon on my profile page.

Yep. Don’t need any weird and unproven loads. Buckshot works every time.
Lesson: Armed old folks aren’t as easy a prey as unarmed old folks.
Next time aim for the heart, sir!! :)
