Buy a hand gun, learn how to use it (very important step, it's not just point and shoot or you won't hit anything but a wall), and keep a lock on it all times since you have a little one.
Store it in a place you would run to by reaction (your room apparently)... |
fuck that, what if she comes home and the intruder is already in her room?
that's why you need to get a gun for EVERY room. real big fucking HUGE guns too, like the one loryn mentions. huge gun.
don't worry about getting a clumsy shotgun, too cumbersome and it doesn't have the *hello, shitbag* factor that a .44 has.
and the lock is crucial too, make sure you keep the key on your person at all times so you don't have to go looking for it, wasting time. because you will need time to unlock the gun, since there's a child in the domicile as you point out, and the gun is locked.
practice so that you do not fumble the key when you are shitting your pants that some whacked out street thug(s) are stealing your precious necklaces.
also, keep the ammunition accessible too because after you get the gun unlocked you will have to load it with ammo, easy breezy if you keep several clips loaded and stashed around the house.
