I only see 2 items that they offer for sale. That site looks a little fishy to me.

Rob this house? For sure. Just have to wait till the owner isn't home.

All that silly idea does is advertise that there is something inside the house that's worth stealing.

+1 - I sure wouldn't want to advertize the presence of firearms in MY home to anybody that happened by.

The preferred method, I understand. Less interruptions and small talk

Maybe it's just me...

I don't think it's wise to advertise the fact that there are guns in your house. Criminals might be interested in "borrowing" your collection.

Great Idea!
Give them as gifts to your anti gun "friends".

Tell them they can wipe their feet on an AK! (show contempt, etc.)

If it does happen to send a "rob me" message to someone, at least they won't get any guns!

Got any idea how many homes have those "protected by...alarm system" stickers and don't have alarms?

Friend of mine is an alarm installation tech. He gave me several wall monitors and stickers which are prominently placed where they can be seen from both front doors.
I have a 30 year old microscope camera I picked up in a garage sale for 5 bucks. It’s mounted where it looks over the back door from under the soffit. Painted it black, looks high tech.
My total alarm setup cost 5$ and pizza and beers.
