Ok folks, I’ve got a question for you. I have posed this to one of my friends and now I’ll toss it out for all to mull over.
Where do you keep your main firearms, the one(s) for home defense, personal protection? When not carrying, where do you stash them and why do you choose to keep a certain gun as a primary one? The reason I asked; I am always in search of the best place/mode to store a gun all-the-while keeping it at the ready especially at night. All of my guns (caliber wise) are capable of handling any situation short of a SAS style home invasion by an entire SEAL team. So I am not bothered about that issue, my choice of a primary gun has to do with what I am comfortable with and reliability/safety.
For instance, (I am a firearms psycho) so I have artillery strewn all about my house. I keep tucked in a drawer near my computer a SIG 228 9mm with 13 rounds of Cor-Bons. Next to my bed, on one side I have my USP Compact .40 hidden away in a stereo stand and on the other side is what I consider my primary gun, my P7M8 9mm. Under my bed is a Mossberg 12ga (Weapon of last resort) and in my closet is one of my SIG 229 .40cals (my father carries my second one). In the living room is a S&W model 19 .357 mag (hidden away discriminatingly and conveniently). Sitting in a coat closet next to the door is yet another 12ga “room broom”, and a Ruger .44 mag carbine rifle complete with 4X12 scope, for all those unorthodox types that my come calling at varied hours. I am also looking at a SIG 239 in either .40 or .357SIG to attach to my collection adding yet another piece that will need the perfect home while at rest.
I have tried various places for different guns such as under the mattress, in a drawer etc. But I still continue my search.
Needless to say, if I am ever paid an unsolicited social call by one of our fine, upstanding citizens. I am only a mere step or so away from the interloper having a Maalox moment.
Also what else do you keep at the ready along side your chosen gun? Flash light etc?
