I have always heard it's best to keep guns in one location and ammo in another. I tend to agree that this makes sense.
There's probably more chance of an accident with an accessible loaded gun than the risk most would have of having to quickly take down an intruder.
That said, where's the trade-off? Who wouldn't want the ease and speed of the loaded gun when called upon.
I'm not one who believes that unlocking a safe in the dark is faster than popping a magazine in a pistol or putting a shot-shell in the chamber and slamming it shut.
So where is the solution. I've always been out on this one.
And it's hard to live without children at some point entering a home (even for those without children). So it's a pretty real question for all walks of life. Curious what your answer is to this.
