Any other weapon except guns?

Post by gunnerjacky » 22 Jul 2016, 8:13 pm

Which weapon (for self defense) do you guys rely on other than your handgun in your home? I have a heavy duty baseball bat which I keep under my bed, just in case if any intruder breaks in and I don't find my bullets to load them in my Ruger LCT. I think Baseball bat is a best self defense weapon after the gun.

I've got a warning on my front door.

It says " this household won't call 000
I also keep duct tape and a shovel in my car"

Knife, knives actually. Oh yeah and an axe.
I've been asked: "How many guns do you need to have?" My answer remains the same: "One more."

The pen may be mightier than the sword, but personally I prefer the .30/30 Winchester.

Bunch of empty beer bottles under the windows. Good sound alarm and I can claim my bad housekeeping for them falling on them.

In Australia we have replaced self defense with victims of crime compensation so if you survive the government pays you.
