I just saw this and thought you guys would appreciate this:





The 'Safe Bedside Table' has a removable leg that acts as a club and a top that doubles as a shield for self-defence. This is for people who are willing to take on an intruder, providing an extra sense of security whilst in bed.

Pretty funny, but I guess if it works then use it.  What are you using?

A guy I know has been using his Angel sword kata to practice  cutting drills in his front yard.  He said he has not had any security problems after that.  :o

It is kind of strange watching your personal history become costume.

Valiss that is freaking awesome.

Our choice is a glock .45 with a round in the chamber on the night stand.

Ironically we do practice with our quarter staffs on the lawn between the buildings.

I'm going to have to get one of those night stands now.

Anyone coming into our townhome will have to enter the "Stairwell of Death" to reach us, which happens to be filled with my array of swords and daggers.

In my bedroom I keep the razor-sharp katana and Phoenix dagger and a pair of .45 Colt revolvers.

Oh yeah, we have "ding-dong" alarms on all doors and windows and 'Maximillian' a Jack Russell Terroroist.

I too have alot of firearms at home as well, but the one I have the most handy is my Glock 35 with a Tac lite/LAM combination, titanium striker and guide rod and tritium night sights.  In addition I also have two dogs who are great sentries.
