Im curious to know how do you guys store the handgun(s) that you use for home defense.Particularly your semi-auto pistol(s).
First of all do you keep it locked in a safe or just stored in a closet or drawer?
Do you keep it loaded?
Both magazine full and one in the chamber?
Just the magazine full and the chamber empty?
A magazine ready to go next to the empty gun?
Maybe you have some kind of lock on the gun itself?
Anything else?
I know some of you carry your handgun when you are at home.I just want to know how you store it when its not on your person.Like when you go to bed (I know some probably sleep with their holster on ).
I personnaly keep it locked in a safe (to be sure that non-authorized people cannot get to it, both burglars and visitors) and with the magazine full inside the gun but the chamber empty for extra safety.
It doesnt take much to rack the slide and I dont think that the noise it makes it a problem.
Thanks for your answers.
