12 Gauge Dragons Breath
Who was asking about home protection ammo???

Dragon's Breath usually refers to a zirconium-based pyrotechnic shotgun round. When the round is fired, sparks shoot out to about 5 m (20 feet).While it has few tactical uses, the visual effect it produces is impressive, similar to that of a short-ranged flamethrower.

At the end of this video by "Professional Russian" he fires the Dragons Breath ammo. Watch the breach as he cranks the action. This ammo must be self-cleaning??? 
At your local Wally World,, well maybe,, just saying..

I think if you were to fire one round over the heads of any recalcitrant home invaders,, you would get their attention...

Yeah as you light your drapes and/or furniture on fire
The comment below the vid whether true or not illustrates another possible outcome of using this over buckshot:

The first pic makes it seem a little more powerful than 20 foot range. According to the back of the box (second pic), it's good past 100 YARDS.

I don't know why, but the thought of a flaming intruder made me laugh out loud.

I'm not convinced.
I saw the "professional russian" video yesterday and my first thought was that he must have doused the mannequin's clothes with gas or some other flammable, which would also explain the furios way the mannequin keeps burning on the ground. In this FLETC video the effects of a dragons breath on clothing (12:40) are not nearly as spectacular. Or maybe dragons breaths have gone a long way since 1997.
