I've been thinkin I should have something handy just in case. The stipulation being that the weapon must be legal and not be a gun. A gun is off the list because you can't legally keep it loaded under your bed, and if you could it would be an accident waiting to happen. Something that would atleast stop an intruder from coming close to you. The best I can come up with is an axe or sword, somebody here must have a better idea?
