Gun and ammo storage

I have firearms locked in my gun safe. I have ammo locked in my ammo safe.
I also have my Colt 45 Combat Elite loaded and ready to go in my bedside table. Only one gun is ready to fire and its never moved or changed in anyway other than monthly practise at the range. Having this firearm....and only this firearm ready keeps me always on top of whats ready and whats not and where. No forgotten loaded guns laying around.
No one under 52 in my household. When children come to visit that loaded firearm is locked up still loaded. The slight delay of opening the safe is a reasonable safety precaution to protect the children to me. The odds of needing the firearm are not as great as the need to protect the children. Just has a 5 second delay is all.
Always know where your guns are. Always keep them out of reach of children.
Remember an unloaded gun is useless.
