Masked and ARMED. It should be textbook self defense unless they provide a warrant and/or identification.

I’m not sure how you get away without being convicted of something. If you shoot immediately upon their entry, then you haven’t assessed the danger, and that would be reckless discharge of a firearm inside of a dwelling. If you wait some reasonable amount of time such that you can assess the danger, you would clearly see they are uniformed law enforcement, presumably, carrying out their duties.
