I've been seeing alot of forced entry cases in the news lately and it's lead me to think and devise a plan should someone do the blantant, kick in the door and tie up the home owner while ransacking the house thing. I've already discussed this with my wife and the protocol would go something like this.
(Bump bump bump)
Wake up the wife, have her grab my Chihuahua that's bound to go barking up a storm after hearing an intruder. She goes into the master bath were I have a charged cellphone, and loaded shotgun. She is to put our barking Chihuahua in our glass shower stall to keep him out of the way. At that point she'll call 911 and pump a shell into the chamber. All the while I place my camping light on top of my dresser 10 feet away from me pointed at the door. And me on the floor in prone postion with my AR15, hiding behind the foot of my bed which is a sleigh bed, on the floor in the dark waiting for the cavalry to arrive.
Looking for anything I should keep in mind. Maybe an escape ladder for my wife should it get ugly? Use a hand gun and clear the house myself? Anything else I should keep handy for this sort of thing?
