Normally only two. But others with loaded mags. Loading/unloading is where most AD happen. Also bullet set back. So two main carry guns stay loaded.
How many guns do you keep loaded all the time?

I always have my Taurus 85CH loaded up (except when dry firing
). I usually have one (sometimes two) more, but it isn't aways the same gun so I can't say I have it/them always loaded. Also, while my SKS isn't loaded, I do have 100-200 rounds loaded up on stripper clips, easily accessable to the gun and ready to go in case of a really bad situation.

The trusty SIG P220 stays loaded with Gold Dots, empty chamber.
In the closet there's an AK with a 30 round mag holding 20 rounds next to the gun.

An unloaded gun? ain't that more like a baseball bat with poor ergonomics? ALL mine are loaded... and since I posess a CCW, they're all loaded ALL the time, unless I have JUST finished shooting one (before the reload) or am cleaning them...

I keep one .17HMR revolver loaded. It is kept in a single-lock cabinet as small kids sometimes visit while I'm unaware or absent, but I can get to it pretty quickly so that doesn't bother me.
....
I only have rimfires anymore, mostly target stuff. Most of the target guns are a b*tch to unjamb even at a casual pace when they get hung up, so they are not worth considering as defense guns as long as I have any revolver around. The 10/22 I have rarely ever jams (and I have 30-rnd mags for it!), but it has a heavy barrel and stock and large scope, and it's just not handy to swing fast anymore.
I should probably go buy another plain one for defensive use.
....
Eventually I will get a semiauto .17hmr rifle and I will probably leave that loaded also--with jacketed spitzer bullets, I would bet that it would feed more dependably than unjacketed round-nose .22's do.

All of them.
None.
I sleep walk on occasion, so I dont keep any loaded & accessable. I do leave loaded magazines next to the 1911s in their drawer, the ARs have a few mags and the shotguns have a big pile of shells next them in the safe.
When I feel I'm ready, I'll load the shotguns up to cruiser ready and leave them under the bed, but that might be a while.

Dang, I had to think on this one. Combat Commander-nightstand. Hi power and p-32-on me or on the dresser opposite the night stand. 870 and m-4 carbine-in racks in back of duty vehicle. Marlin .22- behind living room curtain for varmints. Hi power-roomates room. Glock 22-other roomates room(their guns.) 590-roomates patrol car. Glock 22-truck gun. Glock 19-----DANG, my girlfriend stole it, well its at her house. Now I need to get one out for a kitchen gun, never know when you'll have a home invasion while cooking dinner.

5. .45 Colt Commander., 3-1/2" .45 Springfield micro (my carry), .2" 38 (my other carry when not carrying the .45), Remington 1100 W/ 00 up stairs for nighttime emergencies and a Remington Nylon 66 .22 cal for expelling maxium lead without worrying about over penetration into the neighbors house.
One of the .45's are near me all the time.

Rule # 1 is in effect in this household , too. ASll guns are loaded, all the time until PROVEN otherwise.
However, just glancing around the LR I see 6 handguns and one rifle

ALL OF THEM, ALL THRU THE HOUSE, ALL OF THE TIME! If they are not loaded, they are just useless pieces of metal or plastic; throwing them at someone is not an attractive option. Yes, I know, what about kids in the home? Teach them from a very very early age! I have one rule: No matter how busy I am, No matter what I am doing, or how important it is, I will stop and take one of the kids shooting, or let them handle a firearm, whatever; anytime of the day or night, NO MATTER WHAT.
That way, the kids don't have to get "curious" about dad's guns; they know, and always have known, that daddy will let me "play" with them anytime they want; therefore there is no sneaking around, and no resulting problems. Of course, I realize that a lot of people can't walk out the back door and go shooting like I can, but you can still do a lot to cure their curiosity; as in, let them help you disassemble and clean them, how about helping dad reload ammo? You get the idea. All Loaded, All the time.
