I want a sword, my other half isnt too happy about the idea and put her dainty foot down when I saw one in a shop the other day. She's not really too up for the whole weapons-cache-in-the-house business.

I have some implements with which to assail burglars and jehovas witnesses (they can also be a bit tasty sometimes) but none of them are a proper weapon. They're only a hand axe and a pick axe handle.

What weapons do you have about the house?

handle and it has a lead knob on the end. I've had it for years. No idea whatsoever where I acquired it.

Seriously, though, a sword? Isn't that a bit 'Martial Arts-obsessed loner'?

I dont want a samurai sword, I just want to be able to unsheath it in the event of a burglary.

I feel I've gone beyond the whole pickaxe handle thing and the axe isnt big enough to look properly menacing.

Like banshee. or the noise an Italian or Spaniard makes when their team score a goal.

Where I used to live there was a bloke on the roof he legged it I felt quite tough.

you've just cleft someone i'twain with broadsword imo. It kind of smacks of pre-meditation imo.

bunch of blokes chasing an Asian girl who's run off with a white lad. Very good.

Sort of knocked him back out the quarterlight, like one of those kids hammer and peg sets it was.

urination.

The missus kept groaning about it at first because the locations reminded her of where she grew up. Not something she enjoys. :hehe:

You need to look at the broader issues, why is this man in your house? What are the underlying socio-economic factors that lead us here and how are we, as a modern democratic nation in the 21st century, proposing to redistribute wealth in a fairer, more consensus based way.

shotgun - you're not going to be in the right frame of mind for precise aiming

short barrel - people underestimate how tight the space is if you are in your house

not too powerful - you don't want to be going through the perp and hitting things behind him

semiautomatic - hold 8, reloading is rather inconvenient in such circumstances

can be fairly easily controlled with one arm - You might be pinned down

solid construction - in case you need to hit someone with it.

Downside is that it does take a fair amount of practice. Then again that's fun in and of itself.

I used to know a bloke had some guns around the house.

Did not end well for him.

shot another human being with it, though.

'6 out of 10. Not enough stopping power!
It killed him right enough, but not as quickly as I would have liked. He was still able to plead with his eyes and choke on his own blood for a good 30 seconds after I'd put two shells in him. Something for the manufacturer to work on there, I'd say.'

You'd have to carry it around with you, and then keep it next to the bed at night, which sounds like an accident waiting to happen.

solves the one downside to a shotgun which is the reload. Not so easy in the dark with your heart racing and the perp still presumably upright!

It's just not as grimy and edgy as it used to be.
