Unless you live in a ghetto, you should not expect a crowd of invaders, usually it will be a couple of people foraging for food or supplies. This doesn't mean that in a crisis you start blasting away at every stranger who comes by. You have to use common sense, evaluate friend or foe and make sure that you have backup. In most crisis events, you won't have electricity and possibly no running water. Battery powered cameras and trip alarm systems can be very useful for guarding perimeters. Since most home assaults or intrusions happen at close range, I prefer my suppressed FN-45p tactical with night sights and RMR red dot. This great handgun comes with 3 / 15 round clips and is deadly accurate and flawless. Keep in mind, gunshots are very loud, and the sound might alert more of the type of people you do not want to attract. If you live in one of 33 states which allow ownership of suppressor/silencers, then form a GUN TRUST through an attorney and buy at least one for a .45. The quietest (whisper quiet) is a 22 Long Rifle suppressor) but while a .22 can be deadly, accurate and dangerous, it is NOT a sure stopper like a .45 or 9mm with personal P protection rounds (expand on impact). Also, a bullet proof vest is highly recommended in case your assailants come armed. Use green or red dots sites for quick site aquisition. For crowds use a good 12 guage, but shotguns are messy and can really damage your property, so use only when there is no other option. Most important survival categories are:
1. Food, Water, Utensils and proper storage 2. ENERGY, firestarters, fuel - have a backup 1400 - 1800 watt portable solar system with batteries and controller. 3. long range, medium range and short range guns, lots of ammo and bullet proof vest(s), strong binoculars 4. Personal comfort: Portable AC, Heater, blankets, proper clothing and footwear. 5. Transportation: EMP shielded 4 wheel drive diesel or electric vehicles if possible, trailer hitch, covered trailer, trail or mountain bicycle, portable wagon that can be hand pulled or bicycle pulled. Lastly, form neighborhood alliances with at least 3 other well armed and prepped neighbors if possible. Best case scenario is a 4 man Delta Force type team which will band together to fight of attacks by groups of outsiders intent on robbery and violence. read my editorials at: http://www.obwon.net
 
Well your not going to dig if you live in South Florida cause all you will get is water. Keep fuel and chainsaws and cut down trees to block roads into your safety zone. Form neighbor militias and post sentries with airhorns (another good thing to keep on hand). Not many amateur armored vehicles will stop a FMJ .308 let alone a .338 Lapua Magnum or .50 Cal.....keep that in mind. If your home is in a vulnerable position then you move, if not, make a stand and make sure you have plenty of help and ammo. Nothing is easy and there are no perfect solutions, except be alert and well prepared.
