When I'm alone in the house I'm always carrying my Kahr PM40 and when I sleep it's under my pillow.


After having someone break into my house in '94 and him breaking everything he could pick up by bringing it down on my head, I just have a certain level of anxiety when alone. Happiness is a warm gun.

Ahahah, I laugh every time I read your story. Not because of what happened, but how you describe it. I'm curious why its warm though? 😛

Happiness Is A Warm Gun
Written by Lennon/McCartney

Happiness is a warm gun
Happiness is a warm gun

She's not a girl who misses much
Du du du du, oh yeah
She's not a girl who misses much
Du du du du, oh yeah

Mother Superior jump the gun
Mother Superior jump the gun
Mother Superior jump the gun
Mother Superior jump the gun

Happiness is a warm gun
Happiness is a warm gun

She's well acquainted with the touch of the velvet hand
Like a lizard on a window pane
The man in the crowd
With the multicoloured mirrors on his hobnail boots
Lying with his eyes wide open
And the hands busy working overtime
A soap impression of his wife which he ate
And donated to the National Trust

Hey, I need a fix 'cause I'm going down

Happiness is a, a warm gun
Happiness is a, a warm gun
Happiness is a, a warm gun
Happiness is a warm gun

Happiness is a warm gun
Happiness is a warm gun

I need a fix cause I'm going down
I need a fix cause I'm going down
I need a fix cause I'm going down / I need a fix cause I'm going down
To the bits that I left uptown
I need a fix cause I'm going down, uptown / Down to the bits that I left uptown

Need a fix cause I'm going down, uptown / I need a fix cause I'm going down

Happiness is a, a warm gun
Happiness is a, a warm gun
Happiness is a, a warm gun
Happiness is a warm gun

Happiness is a warm gun
Happiness is a warm gun / Warm gun
Happiness is a warm gun / Warm gun

Let's see who is cautious/ paranoid and keeps something by the bed, just in case.

For me, since I live in social housing and there are more druggies around the neighbourhood nowadays: Baseball bat beside my bed, at less than arms length. Knife under my pillow.

I thought this thread was about weapons, not sports equipment. 😀
Most states ban people with mental illness from purchasing firearms.

No. And the apartment door is open too. It's nice not living in the ghetto.</end quote></div>

I could probably sleep with my door unlocked also, but last time I did that Michael Moore came in and interviewed me.

hahaha AAA++
 
No....*cowers into corner*.

If worse comes to worst, I have about 20 issues of PC Gamer I can throw at someone. It might not be harsh language, but I trust them to slow someone down... Oh, and I WILL be using harash language as I throw.

Is harash language anything like hashish language? 😉

PC Gamer really sucks as TP, if you were ever tempted to use it in an emergency...

No, it's more hashbrown than hashish... with twice the deadly grease and cholesterol. 😉

I won't even ask why you would know PC Gamer sucks as toilet paper. Ya, but I can't imagine using glossy-thin pages would feel to nice against your 'out'.

I pity the fool who tries to break into our townhouse.

On my nightstand next to my bed i've got a 9mm Ruger P95.

10 feet away in my closet ive got:

AK47
2 12 gauge shotgun's
Semiauto 22 rifle
22 Revolver
9mm Baretta

1000 rds 9mm
5000 rds 22
1000 rds 7.62x39
200 assorted 12ga shells

All the weapons/ammo dont help unless mags are loaded 😛 Just saying!

When I get back to the states it'll be Sig P226 40 S&W + Surefire on my side, Glock 19 on the wife's side, loaded Remington 870 w/ 00 buck chambered and nearby.

I keep 2 mags sitting next to the P95. I have a few mags for the AK sitting below my nightstand as well, so it would only take about 5 seconds to run to the closet, grab the gun, and load it.
