It wasn't me. I wish I could program my alarm to include a voice yellng "Grab the shotgun and see who it is."

As long as it's just as credible to the would-be burglar at 12:30 in the morning as at 2:00 in the afternoon.

No because it would then be a NFA item and the BATFE wont let you have it.

I wonder if there's an alarm out there that sounds like an AK on full auto.
