Good evening,
I would like to get some surveillance cameras. Unfortunately, there are so many offers available, with some costing 1500 euros and others 300 euros, even though I hardly see any difference between some of them. Therefore, I wanted to ask if anyone has a lot of knowledge or experience with a good set.
I would like to have 4 cameras for outdoor use. They should have Wi-Fi, as I don’t want to run cables everywhere, and offer live streaming to a smartphone via an app or another method. Additionally, an optional alarm that can be activated—preferably only at night—would be useful.
The problem is that I don’t want the cameras to be immediately noticeable on my house, so ideally they should have a black housing. I plan to hang them on my balcony and point them toward my house. The sidewalk will also be recorded since my property extends to the street, so there should be no legal issues.
I’m willing to spend up to 500 euros if that is feasible. I hope someone can help me as soon as possible because frequently teenagers cause trouble right in front of my house. For example, every year on New Year’s Eve, someone throws a firework into a stone trash bin that is located in front of my house. EVERY YEAR THE SAME THING. Now I’ve had enough and plan to go to the police this year with hopefully good video evidence.
Thank you very much for the help.

pagoni202029 Mar 2021 20:05Unfortunately, you don’t answer my questions, and I also didn’t understand that, in your opinion, people should be forced to carry weapons—you must have briefly lost your way in the forum.
Of course, it’s terrible that you were mugged; there’s no doubt about that, and it’s unfortunate that the police take some time to arrive. On the other hand, I wouldn’t find it good or necessarily better if a police officer were posted every 500m (500 yards).
no comment......
…..is the song prescribed, or do you at least get to freely choose the tune?
Well then, why don’t you share YOUR knowledge with someone who doesn’t know, regarding how carrying weapons guarantees safety in the USA? For a movie recommendation: “Bowling for Columbine.”
I know, I never claimed otherwise. We had already taken in a failed art student from that country once before… we should have been more careful back then.
Let’s end this here—I definitely don’t want to try to convert you. What happened to you is terrible, but in my opinion, radical measures don’t really help, and fathers who enjoy watching their families suffer or singing songs during torture surely only exist in bad movies—and the police are not stupid either.

as the police advise, not to provoke the criminal, but to sing a little song

Because of the attack, I didn’t have any problems. It just made me thoughtful.
I just want to be able to defend myself adequately if necessary.
Until 2003, it was normal to have a legally owned firearm loaded on the nightstand at night. That’s how I learned it and how I practiced it.
Then the state became concerned that this was far too dangerous, so I had to store the firearm in a safe.
In 2013, a safe company successfully lobbied politicians so that old safes (which they had sold until then) had to be replaced by new safes. Okay, I did that and placed a loaded firearm in my safe in the bedroom. Then (I believe in 2015) that was also considered too dangerous and it became mandatory to store the firearm unloaded in the safe. The loaded magazine could (and still can) be kept next to it.
Rumor has it that politicians are considering requiring ammunition to be stored separately from the firearm.
That just gives intruders more time to break in. So: protection for the perpetrators. I can’t think of any other explanation.

And what does a "trained" gun owner do when there is a rustling in the bushes? What does he do if two attackers come? Does he then shoot with both hands? Is that your question that I’m supposed to answer?

HUH?
Was the question meant seriously?

The number of victims, often uninvolved bystanders, is extremely high, and every single one of them is one too many. That is obviously nonsense, and with a little thought, you would realize that yourself.

A look at the USA and other countries shows that the opposite is true.A closer look at the USA reveals that in states where gun ownership is strictly regulated or even completely banned, most crimes involving firearms still occur. In states with more liberal gun laws, statistics show very few gun-related offenses, and burglaries are statistically extremely low.

SteveYes, the number of burglaries may be lower. But the number of people injured or killed by these weapons is significantly higher. But that's not such a big deal, right? The main thing is fewer burglaries.A little tip: get a small firearms license and a blank-firing pistol. These look very realistic and can cause enough harm to scare off 99.9% of burglars—if you are able to aim at people.

In my self-defense courses, I strongly advise against using a blank firing pistol. They are relatively ineffective and mostly just bluff. At least those blank firing guns built according to German PTB standards are easily recognized as such.
So threatening without being able to carry out the threat is something one should not do.
Why would I not be able to aim at people?
I served in the German military in a war for three years.
