Christmas visitors late at night when no one is stirring, not even a mouse are a hard reality for a lot of us every year. Let's go over the tactical situation:
1. Claus will be invading, his method of entry is known, and he has two hard targets: The Tree, to deliver his payload, and the Plate of cookies and milk.
2. The fact that Claus is going into every single abode without express permission, including some extremely dangerous scenarios (crack houses, domestic violence situations, lunatic right wing gun nuts, etc) means that Santa, if he's smart, will be armed and ready. His elves are talented enough to create some really trick weaponry as well.
3. Claus is very ancient, and therefore treacherous.
Your advantage is that you control Claus' method of entry, and are much more familiar with the layout of your abode.
Claus will most likely be armed with a very short barreled rifle, useful for very close quarters maneuvering, perhaps an M4, or even a Serbu "super shorty" shotgun with a bandolier full of reloads.
His entry technique relies on stealth rather than the typical dynamic entry methods. Claus rarely has to resort to door breaching and flashbangs. Be cautions, because he might look just like a peddler just opening his pack, and you want to make sure you don't have an actual peddler in your house, who would probably be unarmed. Know your target!
One clue that you have encountered Claus is the jolly chuckle that sends chills down your spine, letting you know it's "game on".
A green tritium glow as you line up your front sight,
Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.
