Don't know that claiming you have a firearm stashed in the house is a great idea. Perhaps the thief or thieves may think its a bluff, perhaps they think you really have one and stay away, perhaps they case the joint looking for a firearm to steal,perhaps they appear on the doorstep unexpected with a firearm wanting yours.........I hope I dont generate any American gun lobby logic here.

Devils, you need a gun safe, that needs to weigh in at 150kg, or bolted into a concrete surface, and it has to be in a room that is barley used. And it can only be acsessed by the owner, so I you can claim it, but you cannot have it ready at all times...

Yeah, it's pretty hard, if anyone goes into our house at night, my dog, no matter who it is, will bark his bgucking head off and try and do what he can to get you, he doesn't like things he cannot see, I have tested this, no matter how much I say "No boy, it's only me" He will go crazy until he can see my face.
my place in the city was done over many years ago, my large german sheppard was traumatised beyond belief. If the bastards r so hell bent of getting something off ya property do it when no-ones around and leave the damn animals alone. I didnt care about the property damage, but my beautiful dog was a mess after and eventually i had 2 put him down as he started biting everyone. Heart breaking.

Hey All,
It angers me when i hear about the arseholes out there! My dads last L31 SLR was stolen about 6 times, usually by joy riders, the last time it went we never saw it again.
I work in the Real Estate Industry, you would not believe what i have seen!
Whilst working in an "upmarket" part of town, with all the high tech security the complex had to offer, in one night some theives got into the building i looked after by scaling the side of it and entered on the fourth floor.
From there, they went balcony to balcony which wasnt too hard as it was the middle of summer and everyone had there balcony doors open.
There must have been a fair few of them, as in the one night a Porche GT two, Mazda RX8, Clubby R8 and a fair few more cars all went missing, as did phones, wallets, keys, laptops.
This happened at about 3am in the morning while everyone was asleep.
They are ruthless out there and will not stop at anything,
Just last week in Ultimo they smashed down a Fire Rated back door, solid timber, they went straight through it while the tenant was upstairs, took the keys to his new MPS 6 mazda what ever they are, went to the security carpark, waived at all the cameras and took the car.
The building manager made contact with the local authorities to show them the tapes, i understand to this day nothing has happened.
I am not having a shot at anyone here, as i know they are busy, but i think they should come down alot harder, or let the owners of the vehicles have there way with these people.
Lets all keep together on this, if you see someone sus, dont wait for a second, thump them, and then ask questions, thats the way SYDNEY has to be now!

guns take to long to get from your gun safe and if the thieves get them from you you and your family are in more trouble.Devils, you need a gun safe, that needs to weigh in at 150kg, or bolted into a concrete surface, and it has to be in a room that is barley used. And it can only be acsessed by the owner, so I you can claim it, but you cannot have it ready at all times...
This is where a compound bow and hunting tipped arrows has its advantages.
you dont need to lock these up hanging on the bedroom wall is fine. this will stop a wild Boar so will be no match for a thief. and there silent dont even know where the shot come from.
only problem then is youd have to sell the xu1 to pay for a lawyer to keep ya ass out of jail.
it all just sucks when scum bags think they deserve yout property more than you

Yep, same thing happened to us. I had a LH SLR5000 with a Gulliver alarm. I used to park it on Mum and Dad's front lawn as we only had one garage.Yeah, it's pretty hard, if anyone goes into our house at night, my dog, no matter who it is, will bark his bgucking head off and try and do what he can to get you, he doesn't like things he cannot see, I have tested this, no matter how much I say "No boy, it's only me" He will go crazy until he can see my face.
One night when we were all out, some thieves prived the bonnet open and the alarm sounded.
Our Shepherd came running around to the car and the low-lifes slashed his throat and left him to bleed to death. He was only 2.
Somehow the neighbours heard the screams from the dog and called the Police who called a vet.
The dog survived but was a mess. After the attack, he was scared of his own shadow. Never recovered and only lived to be 8.
I hope the would-be thieves experience agony in life, just like they served up to our dog.
BTW: Our current dog ( Choc Labrador ) was born 050505, naturally we called him BROCK.

That scares the shit out of me!! What makes it worse is that about 2 days ago my girlfriend got followed to my house (straight after the terrigal cruise) by a BMW full of lebz, they pulled up bout 3 doors down and my torry was sitting in the driveway as i couldnt get it into the backshed (mumz car was in the drive thru garage and i was lazy wen i got home) but yeh about 2 hours later i went to put the old girl away and they were all still sitting there, but i got in, started it up and all of a sudden a big ass leb dude was tappin on my window, so i wound it down and 4 more came over, i was shitting myself, even had my hand on the club lock under my seat, but they were pushy as shit tryin to see if id sell my car, cus his cousin had an LX and wanted an LJ. I was polite and said that no i didnt want to sell it as id spent so much time/money on it and i was still enjoying it. yada yada yada, but yeh they werent overly rude just arogant and pushy, but i had the thought that, hey... they know where it lives now, now that i know peopl actually break into houses, get keys and steal cars makes me nervous. Atleast i can get my german shepard in 3 months wen i can afford to feed it (mumz rules). I'v got a nice big hunting knife tucked under my matress for home invaders (we live right near a large housing commision estate)
After that rant.. on a positive note at about 6.30 on sunday night i went out to move a car (VK calais) from the front of my step dads shop to round the back and on the hoist and i was fumbling round with the keys in the dark, and just as i got in and got the in the ignition, a paddy wagon puled in, the driver jumped out the passenger copper was ready to jump out, and i thought "shit wats goin on" so i opened the door and the copper says "have you got keys to that car mate" i showed him and explained that i couldnt find the key hole, and he said that it just looked sus as they were driving past. (i thought it was a noise complaint... we had sanders and compressors going from 8 in the morn till like 8 at night) but yeah at least they give a shit (well some of em).
CHEERS Chris
Anyone that hurts an innocent animal deserves to get F*CKED ON BIG TIME, its just plain wrong.

That's not a bloody big picture, that's a bloody big dog
Or at least it has bloody big teeth
It may not be a good idea to display a sticker on your car saying "This car is protected by a Cobra Alarm" 'cause it only lets the ol' mah fuggers know how to get around disarming the alarm.

Just to top things off, my wife rang me last night from work and advised me she was going to be late home because one of her employees had their car stolen from out the front of the school where they work. The young girl saw them drive off in it but it was too late. The pricks just don't understand the effect it has on people when they take their transport away. I hope things don't happen in three's in the case!!!!!

its very sad that you cant even enjoy your cars in your own home without feeling scared that someone might steal it throughout the night!
I know that if i cought some trying to steal my car i would make sure they get tought a lesson and would never steal a car again!
As many people have mentioned a dog is a good idea and doesnt cost too much to feed, well depending on what breed you have
I have a beautiful american staffy x pitt bull, very protective and always hungry A good home alarm is also good.
