1. Three men are armed with small caliber pistols
2. You hear them and realize they are there 30 seconds before getting into your house
3. You don't know their intentions. They could be cops, for instance, using a no knock warrant
4. Your family is home and asleep in their rooms
5. The men come in from different points of entry

What's your plan of action?

I believe it was Weezy who said it best when he said "I don't bust back because I shoot first"

I wake up and have 30 seconds until they get in? I reach behind my head and grab my street sweeper, walk to the door/window they are climbing in and blow them to hell as they enter. A much bigger fear would be waking up with them already in the house.

Your scenario is really the best thing that could possibly happen. Change it to you waking up at 3am to the back door alarm being breached

Dogs will delay them long enough to get AK out of closet, grab .45 and begin filling body bags.

Call 911. Get my shot gun from next to the bed that is fully loaded and my 9mm out of the night stand. Give 9mm to wife and have her hide on the ground in the closet. Take shotgun to hallway and wait for soon to be dead intruders to get in my line of sight.

ETA: This is all assuming the see and hear my rottie that will be barking and growling while they're fiddling around trying to get in and still decide my house is the one they have to get in.

ETA 2: Considering your 5th point, my plan is the same unless one of the points of entry is my bedroom window. That guy is getting blasted while he tries to get in.

With a full 30 seconds?

Grab shotgun
Grab .357
Dial 911 and leave phone on bed
Turn on porch lights
If they're still come in, shoot them.

I REALLY don't want to deal with the headache of shooting someone, so I'd at least try the lights to scare them off.

16 in the clip and one in the hole
Tigerlee about to makes some bodies turn cold
They started dropping and yelling but it's a tad bit late TLEE and his 9 bout to regulate.


To answer your question I would regulate those fools.

By the way this exact senecio happened to my elderly aunt. She heard them trying to get thru her bedroom window. Walked to the kitchen and called the cops. Cop got there about 5 minutes later and they walk back to here bedroom, kinda assuming they are gone. One jumps out of the closet and has a shoot out with the cop, one jumps out from under the bed and goes back out the window. Cop hits the shooter who goes back out the window. 3 bad guys get away, to be caught later. Cop dies right there in her room. Bad deal
