A burglary victim has told a drive-by shooter to "consider yourself blessed" no one died during a violent home invasion.
"One small change during your despicable crime against my family and you could have killed me, or worse, one of my children", the man said in a victim impact statement.
The burglar, Connor John Manns, aged in his mid-20s, has been sentenced to more than seven years jail, with a non-parole period of more then three years and 10 months.
