If you were home alone and people broke into your home and gave you no choice but to fight back, what weapons would use to quickly defend yourself? (Page 3)

[Leavesbound]

I keep a baseball bat by my bed and another one in the umbrella stand. They are very effective. But I probably won't need either as my cat is a very effective deterrent. She hates intruders.

[micheal727jovanie]

.22 wmr (mag) should do the trick not to get confused with the.22 lr. The.22 wmr cartridges are much longer and have the ability to strike any vital organ.

[oldasIfeel22]

I keep a sig 9mm in my drawer (in a small biometric safe) for this purpose. I hope that day never comes but if it did I rather have protection vs not have it.

I keep a good assortment of hand tools nearby, so a hammer or box cutter. I also always have a Swis Army Knife and there are many items handy that could do sone serious damage.

[SomeGuyCalledTom]

I'd go straight for the kitchen knives as Plan A. Failing that I'd use my pull up bar from my bedroom as a blunt weapon. I could also hurl glasses at them to create an opening for a follow up attack

[eterna1drag0n]

I've got a rifle hanging above my computer desk. I've got a handgun less than 3 feet from me the majority of the time and I have a few cameras around my home outside. I got the cameras after someone broke into my vehicle in the driveway. I have a video of myself running outside with my handgun out and scaring the thief away. I feel confident in my abilities defend myself and my family.

The dog I have now, is a retired Police dog, and she's going to get a piece of any dumbass breaking in.
If she doesn't totally disable the invader, I have a Taurus Judge, loaded with alternating.410 shells, 3 pellets each, and.45 Colt.

[Adam1978]

I would pick up loose items and keep throwing at them, if I have to I use my krav maga training on them.

[purplepoppy]

A big dildo. No one wants to risk death by dildo.

[Napolii]

You're always sexual, huh!

I'd use my Black Aces Tactical semi auto shotgun which I keep loaded candy cane style with #4 buckshot in the front, then #1 buckshot, #00 buckshot, 3" #4 buckshot, 1 OZ slug, and a Brenneke Black Magic 3" 1 3/8 oz slug. Or my AR-15, or my C39V2.

[Naydyonov]

Fastest weapon: knife. I can grab one within ~5 seconds.
Best weapon: pistol-caliber carbine.
I will receive a handgun soon.
But uh, Canada doesn't like when guns are used in self-defense. Hates it.

[strawberryjammer]

This actually happened to me and my father.
Two guys broke in….. we fought them off with fists, our dogs and a .22 gun. Quite a story.

[bolverk]

I have a 6 B cell maglite by my bed that can be used as illumination or a club, a Nepalese Kukri and a Cold Steel Bushman with in easy reach along with a 5 Foot Red Oak staff. Unfortunately as I live in the UK if I used either knife I'd be in trouble with the law.

[yourbabygirl921]

I'll take a stainless bat so I could hit that person lol plus adrenaline rush will give me strength

[Rangers]

I think you should go around your house and see where you have room to swing a bat before you decide on that...

[yourbabygirl921]

Lmao we got big house it's alright

[collie22]

poke them in the eyes then kick the nuts tell he passes out

[Ryfyle]

I have the necessary tools. Would be a rough night if somebody died to a Drywall saw rather than a 10mm round. Imagine a nice, sharp, and thin pumpkin carving knife. That's gruesome channel wound city right there. the Serrations would cut muscle like Jello and easily rip an artery like a chip bag. Fear the Coarse Drywall saw.

I’m tiny and not a fighter. I’d probably just scream and cry and try giving them whatever they want so they don’t hurt me.

[Oppressed_Leecher]

then and there would you wish you had a gun?

[Opinion Owner]

@Oppressed_Leecher there’s no way I could bring myself to hurt someone

[Oppressed_Leecher]

then you're dead or at least viciously raped and left for dead. most likely

[ChiTown33]

Currently? Crutches. I'm still nursing a bum wheel at the moment.

[_no_one_]

This one

I don't have a gun tho, but my dad does.

[Tunasub]

I don't ask questions they will be met with the same malice they had entering my home illegally and unauthorized..
