I went shooting with my dad the other day. and although he has always had quite a selection i never really shot them growing up (Im 21). yesterday we shot a 9mm, .38, .357 magnum. and those were fun and all. but then came the shot gun (12ga)! holy jesus that was a good feeling. and i thought how could i top this? so he brought out some 12 ga magnum shells. I think for home protection it has to be a 12ga. can't miss with those.

now i need to shoot a machine gun to top that off? dunno why i was never into guns.
Why wait? The ban thing has always been kind of a joke. There is so much pre-ban stuff around, and you can get the parts to modify any post-ban weapon you purchase. At first, it raised the price of "pre-ban" guns, but that has subsided to the point there isn't a heck of a lot of difference. I always felt the "ban" was pretty meaningless. I am a lot more concerned about government databases on gun owners. We are all becoming "registered" gun owners, we just don't know it.
