Kimber;
One of the more popular placements of the Gunvault type is this: Pull the mattress & box springs from the bed. Size a 1/2" thick plywood sheet to go across two slats & deep enough to mount the Gunvault. Mount the vault to the plywood & put the mounted vault so it hangs between the slats. Replace the box springs & mattress. Make sure the bed skirt keeps the vault from observation.
Then practice the finger form code till you can literally do it in the dark. Yes, the door slaps you in the wrist, but so what? This is good for households that have kids, or a lot of casual friends in & out.
It's not high security, but it is hidden and readily accessable when you're in bed. If you're concerned about burglary when you're up & about in the home, by all means carry at home. Why not? No laws against it in free states.
