quick access to guns in your home

[Lexington]

I always have one on my hip whether I'm sitting at the computer, changing the car's oil, or out in the garden bed. Only time it leaves my hip is when I'm asleep, in which case it's on the nightstand.

[Shisno]

Always on my hip. That way, it follows me wherever I go and I never have to retrieve it when split seconds count.

Just me and the wife and we seldom get visitors. Wife knows any firearm may be/is loaded.

S&W 656 in holder hidden side of my arm chair AK47 within arm's reach. 9mm Berrata on bed's headboard, mini 14 next to bed. There's also a .45 ACP by the door for those late night knocks.

There's also a Winchester pump 12ga, another AK and a couple AR's and handguns through out the house.

Enter my home uninvited ..... leave in a body bag.

I have hidden, but easily accessable loaded firearms throughout the house and a .45 P4 Storm with light and laser at bed side. Death becomes the intruder.

Always have one on my hip or in the pocket, and an AR pistol is close by

First, I have an alarm, window security film, and anti-kick plates (which we slide in front of the doors at night.) All this is to buy some time.

I have a child at home and various locking boxes. While in my PJs, I put, in my jeans on my chair, an M&P Shield in one pocket and its mags in the other. Not ideal but useful depending how much time I have to retrieve my AK.

Since 1985, my wife and I have EDC a firearm. The gun is on our person from the time that we get up till we go to sleep. Then each of us has our firearm accessible.

All other firearms are secured in a safe.

Sometimes, if wearing sweats etc... our handguns are carried in a shoulder rig, fanny pack, or belly band. But 95% of the time it is in its holster on our belts.

If I'm working out, the gun is in a fanny pack besides me - ready to go if I have to answer the door, etc... Same for my wife.

It is just a matter of making a conscious decision to carry 24/7/365.

No kids at home anymore, so it is holster during the day & nightstand at night.

I make use of these: Fast Holster

While I suppose they are not secure in the traditional sense, I don't have any children so no worries there.

just wondering how other guys here keep their weapons stored safely while still being able to get to them in a hurry if someone should try to break in at 8 at night while you're watching tv in the family room.I have two quick access safes,one under the bed and the other under the couch in the room we spend the most time in.Just wondering what others do? Thanks

If someone breaks in, then first alarm or chime sounds, second - i draw.
