Where do you live, what scenarios are you interested in defending against?
My ignant opinion is that the paintball gun is likely to get you shot.

I live in Arizona, nice neighborhood. 2 story house.
Scenario:
2 am, family upstairs asleep and I am awakened to an odd sound downstairs. I get out of bed and fumble for anything that might serve as a weapon. The first is the cordless phone (err... too lightweight) The alarm clock is solid but plugged in. I go into the closet and find a broom with a wooden handle and a screw-in plastic brush part. I unscrew the brush and hope my awesome bowstaff skills get the notice of the gang member in my kitchen.
Reality, I want to be able to just find a safe spot at the top of the stairs and wait to nail someone coming up the stairs with a ranged weapon. Let em take what they want downstairs. If they come upstairs, I want to maximize my chance of keeping em on the bottom floor.
