getting rough around here

the wife called me about 30mins before i got off work on wednesday and said that there was a man walking around our house and that he jumped the fence and walked clear around the house and then she seen him come around the garage and walk across the front yard and then go across the street and try to open some ones front door and then walk the side of the house and then dissapperaed up the street so i told her to call the cops and so for the past few days ive notices more cops patroling our neghbor hood ..........and then on thrusday evening we were coming home from dinner and saw some one getting held up by gun point so the wife and i are ready to move but we just moved in 1 year ago so we got to live here for at least for 5 years or so

Sounds like a pretty tough neighborhood CJ.:o I'd be looking at alarm system, fencing the whole yard in for a BIG dog or two, and a few handy guns inside the house. You might have more problems than that if your wife ever reads your biography though.:eek::D:D

If you cant move....intoduce them to a BIG FIDO DOG.

Dont sound good
Yard lights, 2-German shepards are better than 1

we have a dog but she is still a puppy and dont really know whats going on and we have analarm system but i was thinking about installing security camaras just for the exrta eyes

It's getting rough here in Tulsa too... lots of home invasions lately. Make yourself less of a target than everyone else around you... I keep a 90watt CFL Flood running on my driveway all night... Privacy fence locked and my garage door down at all times. Getting some ballistic glass film for my backdoors so they won't be so easy to smash and open.

Colt, Smith & Wesson, Glock, and Remington do all my talking to those unwanted pests.

Rather be judged by 12 than carried by six.

Gman

Springfield Armoury M1A takes their breath away when they are back peddling at a high rate of speed.

i also have S&W and a few others but its when your not there that they come in cause the last time we got broke in to they waited till my wife went to work and then they kick in my front door and stole my electronics and tried to move my 1,000lbs gun safe but they only got it 1.5" or so and it was the night before we had bad storms come trew and so most of our valuables were in it thank god for liberty safes i'm a firm beliver in a big heavy gun safe

I hear ya Josh. Ever one I knew said my Fort Knox safe was too big. It's amazing what you'll find to put in those things. Wish I could get our TV in it! Now, we're wishing we had a bigger one!

I think ours weighs around 1300. Wish I had bolted it down but I didn't.

that really stinks josh....good idea on the safe..sure wish i had one too...sounds like it is time to move north!

I'm planning on getting a gun safe for my place this fall. I have no idea what to get though. Any thoughts on that?

I have heard though that the gunsafes are now a big target for the home invasions... its like car-jacking except the house. They actually prefer you be home so they can force you to open the safe. Not that I wouldn't still prefer to have a safe...

I will be getting a handgun of some type in a few weeks and getting the fiancée and myself into a CCW class to learn some basics (mainly for her, I'm pretty comfortable around guns of all types).

Hey DNC,

This is where I got mine. He's been there for as long as I can remember. Although his website list other brands, I think he only has Fort Knox and Heritage in his showroom.

A G English - Broken Arrow, OK

One of the main reasons I went with a Fort Knox is because of the better fire rating they had over other brands.

aim right between their eyes and squeeze the trigger.the best gun control is to hold it with both hands:D:D

me and the wife took the CCL class at H and H gun range( they also said not to aim at the head if you can help it but at the torso/ chest area) and the wife also took a pirvet class the week before and she learned a lot and we also bought our gun safe at H&H and i HIGHLY recommend a liberty gun safe and buy the biggest you can afford cause when you buy your gun safe you'll regret not buying a bigger one later on trust me on this ive been there and i wish i would have gotten a bigger gun safe cause you'll want to put other things in it also.....
but this is just my own oppion but ive been there and had it happen and its not a good feeling and you'll be glad you bought a big heavy gun safe if and when it does i just hope it never happens to any one
