Besides a gun.. (which I am not against) but dont need one in my house with the kids around, what would you recommend having in the house that's legal / affordable (say 50 - 200 bucks) that you an have close by, that if you hear that muth*f'er walking up the stairs, you know you can hit him off with something and he is either going down or run out the house.

Im all ears....

dog works for me, they never make it inside.

Get an old shotgun and don't purchase any ammo. The sound of a 12 gauge being loaded even empty is about the scariest noise someone could encounter and alot more intimidating then a dog bark. Its a quality blunt instrument if you choose to use it as a bat.

Bayonet on a unloaded rifle. Nice and long to greet any motherf@);er at the top of the stairs. "now use can't leave"

Don't bring a knife to a gun fight-
There's nothing better than the real thing
I have a s&w walther p 22- 3 clips and a biometric safe that unlocks to my and my wife's fingerprints- no need to mess w a combo at that point, yes its a few more bucks but you tell me what's more important
Life or money
This is only my opinion, I could be wrong
Glazer rounds are loaded w glass beads, plenty of stopping power - non mortal
--- an alarm system with central station monitoring sounds about your style - safe but secure

"Glazer rounds are loaded w glass beads, plenty of stopping power - non mortal" Why?

I agree with Irish Jigger, the sound of cycling a pump gun is distinctive and you need a really big set to continue after hearing it

You need an even bigger set to pull the trigger, esp. if it's not loaded
