My security system lost it's mind on Sunday morning at about 3:30 am. I still haven't figured out what caused the false alarm, and I probably won't ever find out either. Here's some things I learned while clearing the house.
1. The loaded gun in my nightstand was a S&W 2" loaded with 38 +p's. This really sucks, due to the fact that my xd .45 was locked and unloaded in my closet (I'd been carrying the snubbie earlier that day). Five shots seems like plenty when reviewing shooting statistics and the way handguns are employed in home defense situations. Off paper, the only thing I could think about was that stupid unloaded 13 rd. magazine and big black handgun with the big exhaust pipe in my closet.
2. I think I'll invest in a weapon light for the aforementioned xd. I had a Sure Fire Z3 combat light on me Sunday morning. It functioned great until I ran into my nemesis...a little invention I like to call...doorknobs. I never thought about the fact that I'd have to temporarily give up either gun or light while opening closed doors! Duh!!
3. The best tactical clothing in the world... the birthday suit! I can only imagine that me, naked would leave them staring way longer than the highest wattage lamp I could shine in any intruders face. Shoot 'em while they're laughing! That is one tactic I've never thought of, but I bet you any money it would work!
Comments or suggestions appreciated... How's Springfields mini light?
