    Depends on the noise.

    If it's the sound of a bottle opening, I will investigate.

    If it's the sound of a knife stabbing into flesh amidst a cacophony of pain-addled shrieks, I'll probably stay put.

    This.

    I get up grab my mini Drako AK47 with the 30 round clip and go looking for something to shoot. If it is somewhere else, I grab my Remmington shotgun with 00 buckshot, with a round already racked in for good measure and go looking for something to shoot. BTW the sound of a shotgun getting racked is a sound that will instill fear into most men and women, however, I would rather not give my position away. I would rather them if they are there to just see the flash and hear the boom before they go to meet their maker. Just saying.

    Translation = I have a small penis.

    Wrong choice - if they're distracted by stabbing someone else, you can get the drop on them. If you wait, they'll get around to you eventually.

    Seriously. A firearm isn't a toy and only severely sick people would ever hope to use it on another human.

    By the way, in most states you must tell the intruder that you are armed (or rack the shotgun) and let them run away or at least not shoot them in the back. Would you really rather kill another human if the noise would make them run away? Come on now.

    I am a huge believer in everyone being armed and defending your home and family but you MUST be responsible! A weapon IS a big deal and you should treat it with respect.

    Let Apollo (my 110 pound german shepherd) out to check it out while I hide :)

    My 1yo german shepard Azula is only 90 pounds, but she makes up for it in spirit! I'd take the lead, but I know she'd have my back.

    My dogs know when there are rabbits in the back yard, so I know they'd hear an intruder. Whether they barked or not, if I heard something, I'd definitely sneak around the house and try to figure it out myself. One of my fosters was barking her head off at 2 am. I got up to see what she was barking at and heard something run across the cellar door that's at the back of the house. I never saw anything, and everything was locked, so I didn't call the police. Found out weeks later it was a friend of my 13 yr old trying to see if she could come out! 2 am? REALLY?!

    I have a 100lb rottweiler/german shepard named Lola who takes care of all those noises. If not her, then I roll over and ask my husband to do it.

    Usually, Lola has it covered.

    Which one are you?

    When you hear a noise outside late at night, do you:

    Freeze and be quiet. Maybe pull the covers over your head, and hold your breath?

    Get up and get the gun to check it out?

    fixed that for you..
