You could get a paratrooper model. Collapsible stock and all.

Yea.

Scenario A:Guy breaks into house, holds your kid/wife hostage, your home defence weapon is an AK-47. In the dark there is a high chance you could miss or the bullet goes through the targets body also killing/seriously injuring, the hostage.

Ahh yes I figured that, To be honest for a home defense weapon I would go for a shotgun, Although in that situation it would not be ideal.

Any kind of high powered cartridge won't be good for home defense. Use a .45 ACP or less. Or get a shotgun.

I'd use a pistol or a shotgun for home defence.
