That scenario is in the back of my mind. That's why I keep an eye on anyone who's following me when I leave the range and head for home. Just because your paranoid doesn't mean you're wrong.
It really doesn't take much effort to look in the review mirror and note any cars that stay with me, and I don't think it's over the top.
If they do, there's multiple options such as calling 000 whilst taking them on a long trip and get the cops to catch up with them, or going to a place which it appears the guns are stored at - such as police station, gun shop, etc - anywhere but your house. There are obviously other circumstances or ways they can get our details (such as the books sitting on counters at gun shops <sigh>) - so you can do things to lessen the risk, but thanks to the wisdom of our government, not eliminate.
If you're really worried about this occurring and want to brainstorm, I'll play along:
Another option is to get 2nd safe and store some old/bad firearms in there. Old as in rusted to hoot, not functioning, or ones that if they tried taking a shot out of might backfire on them
- and keep your good firearms tucked away somewhere else in another safe that you don't disclose.
With the governments recommendation of "submit and comply" to breakins - there's little option to resist - just to avoid, use deception, or otherwise completely comply if no options are left.
If you have no family to worry about, and you were wanting to resist, and you're well capable (martial arts, ADF training, etc) - consider first that they may be vengeful when they get out of jail. (If they even go there) and they now know your address. Taking them out completely with you 'fearing for your life' might be the only option in that situation if you have the skills and means.
For the rest of us, maybe, just maybe one day we'll be given some authority to have some form of self defense on our own, but until then - it's give criminals what they want and maybe the police will catch up with them one day.
Thankfully these sorts of breakins seem to be very rare (specifically targeting LAFO in the way you've mentioned) - otherwise I'm sure the government would target us, and not the criminals as the default method dealing with these thugs.
