The real power of a firearm is not shooting the intruder, it's convincing them to go elsewhere. Even in a case where the intruder does not know you are armed, after you fire the first shot they're likely to beat feet. Stealing a used TV is not worth getting shot.

It's suffiently hidden so that if I were to be robbed I feel confident it wouldn't be seen and stolen, and it's safetied in such a way that noone can accidently discharge it.So don't yall get any ideas.
