Does anyone use a security service for their coach? An alarm system or alarm system company? I understand many just use a gun but you know as you get older there are many things that can possibly happen and I was curious to find out if there even is such a service for those of us full-timers?

Most alarm services are too slow.Any type of service is available for a price. How deep are your pockets? :BBreak out the popcorn and bacon.:p

Just convert an armored car into RV, problem solved

I've never heard of using an alarm service for a motorhome, but I guess it could be done. Many burglar alarms are cell phone based now versus land line based, so I'm sure they could install one. The problem is the alarm company would have to know where the motorhome is all the time if it were to be any good. They are just going to get the phone call in from the alarm system saying there is an alarm, but they won't get a location. If you are talking about just using it when it's in storage that would work.

If you have to worry about a security system?? Where in the world are you camping?

I like hot tamales candy in my popcorn please! Oh and a coke with ice. I have never had a problem but better prepared and sorry. What about wasp spray? Anyone have a comment about that it shoots far too! Cell phone and 911 .

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but statistics show you are safer without a gun than with. Just use common sense and be aware of your surroundings its about as good as it gets.

Look up bee spray. It causes temporary blindness and has a very good range and accuracy. A very good alternative to anyone who is not excited about a gun.

Although I own guns I have yet to take them when I am camping.

I have bear spray and a double barrel 12 gauge. Don't have to be a good shot with either. Rather not shoot inside but the short barrel is easy to get out and aim. Bear spray isn't easy as that but way easier to clean up.

If I am unsure of the campground safety I rent a tractor and dig a moat around the RV. I turn on the water-after all it's free and fill the moat with crocks.

Gun and a big dog work pretty good.

Yeah, dont even bother phoning the Mounties anymore, just shoot first ask questions later. On trips I take an array of firearms, ranging from my trusty old shotgun to my HK SL8 and and a HK P9. Gotta be prepared for everything these days. Pass the popcorn please.

The Judge. Always a crowd pleaser. Is your concern when your there or when your gone. Two different scenarios.

We are 'half-timers' winter in Mexico summers at home in Arkansas. So far ( and I'm 72 years old ) all I have done is lock the door and get a good nights sleep. :Z
