Thanks for the replies. I have Googled "swat wrong address" and have found quite a few instances of this happening, but my thought was that if, in this day and time, I have people trying to storm my house I will assume that it is the BGs and will react accordingly. The reason I replied on this thread was, it brought up memories of a long time ago, over in a small Asian country. If my boat or crew were fired on, we were, according to rules of engagement, required to open the C.A.C. manual, find the three letter code, which changed every week, for "fired upon, request permission to fire back" and radio it in. I swore to myself after that, that I would never hesitate to defend myself should the situation arise. It may end very bad, but it will be on my terms

I have been worried about this situation happening, and I have one idea, to have you more experienced people kick around. The planning that goes into most swat operations leave it very unlikely of a wrong address for swat. So how about this scenario, when the yelling starts or the banging on doors begin, how about having a revolver or other gun loaded with good blanks, and fire off two shots, to put a little time on your side to be able to call 911 and tell them, that some people are trying to enter, and if it is legit that you will comply, or else real shots would follow. This is only a food for thought but we need to have a plan IMO. Any critiques are welcome
