Whatever I get to first and where they are. I've got weapons and tools that can be used as a weapon (axes, hammers, crowbars) scattered throughout the house, I'm not too worried about it.

I don't worry too much about someone breaking into my house. But if it does occur, I have my pistol (Colt 1991 45 ACP) laying next to the bed. I once had my shotgun behind the door in my bedroom, but that started to get in the way, so I put it away with the rest of my guns.

The first available shotgun or rifle and a hard "instrument" for "hand to hand" combat.

i dont really think any one is goin to bebreakin into my house, but who knows. Ide just use the buck knife next to my bed or if he was unarmed and small ide just use my fists. I wouldnt use a gun inless there was more then one and/or they/him was armed. I wouldnt want to put a hole in the wall. O and ide use the .357 magnum or the 20 gauge.

well, a shotgun with some decently sized shot wo uld be ideal, but it'd be alot easier to secure a handgun around your bed (where you'd most likely be at the time of a robery). also, if married, it would have to be something my wife could use efficiently. I'd lean towards a 9mm with a lazer site. Of course before taking actions into my own hands i would call the police, and only engage with the rober if necessary. If he came in and took things without putting me in danger, i'd let him go and hope the cops could catch him. I'd try to get the lisence plate number and type of vehicleas he drove away, and let the police no that and in which direction he was going. Don't try to be a hero, you may end up being the one at the wrong end of a shotgun barrel.

well my first choice would be my 12 gauge shotgun with buckshot. if that failed, i have a vast assortment of knives, 2 swords, and an axe. if the robber can get past all that, and both of us are still alive, i'll help him load stuff.
