I, like most of you reading feel very strongly about protecting myself and my family should a home invasion situation take place. Ever since I moved out on my own I have always had some sort of protection (whether it be a model 10 S&W in the night table or a mossberg 590 tucked in the closet) at the ready. My wife (whom is not a gun person) never really had a problem with it, however once our son was born the wife and I decided it was best to move the guns into a vault safe to prevent any accidents.
Recently we have been experiencing a rise in violence in our area, we live in a community that has always been quiet however we have had a few home invasions, bank robberies and a near fatal shooting outside of a local diner. I feel that I need to be able to protect and should something happen, there is no way I would be able to make my way into the basement, unlock the combination lock while half asleep (i cant usually do it when awake on the first try) and secure a weapon.
At the same time though my son just turned 3, and he is very eager to get into whatever he can. Any ideas as to how we can keep ourselves armed yet have them completely inaccessible to my child?
