Re: Do you carry at home?
Good one. I carry at home. The only time I am not carrying is when I go to bed. While watching TV I sometimes fall asleep on my chair, and I'm carrying so I even carry while sleeping sometimes!aaangel wrote:100% of home invasion happens at home. So yes i carry at home.

Do what you say you're gonna do.
Re: Do you carry at home?
If I come in wearing it, I take it off at bed time otherwise one is always near.

Re: Do you carry at home?
The picture with the spider reminds of the simpsons episode where home got a gun and shot the light switch to turn it on, shot the tv to turn it on, shot everything to work it,lol. That being said I have carried at home a few times, but it typically sits on a shelf above the desk.

Guns? I don't know seems kind of dangerous

Re: Do you carry at home?
The majority of the time I do not. However, if I am going to be coming and going throughout the day, I keep my gun on.
Even when I do not have a gun on, I have several staged throughout the house that are hidden but easily accessible if needed. Bottom line, I am never far from a weapon for defense.
We live about 20 minutes from town. Calling for help does no good if things go south.
^^^^^^^^
My situation as well. If I am out of the house...doing something on my property (especially out in the woods), I will always be armed, in or around the house, not so much, but I have firearms in different places in our home, never far from one.
Spartans ask not how many, but where!
Re: Do you carry at home?
Since I live solo I dont wear a lot of clothes while at home so no place to wear it except my hand but there are a few scattered thru the house

Re: Do you carry at home?
Yes. My firearm is either on my person or in easy reach at all times. And I never answer the door without it. If someone is at the door we don't know, my husband and I are both armed and stay out of each other's line of fire just in case. We have had some cases of people at our door that were up to no good.

Either on me, or within a foot of my hand almost all of the time. I don't shower with it, I know Glocks are supposed to be tough and resistant, but seems more trouble than it's worth.

Re: Do you carry at home?
Almost always, yes. It's holstered on my desk if I'm at my desk, or in my pocket or on my belt.
Re: Do you carry at home?
Always. I keep my Glock 19 in its Safariland 7360, and just carry that around the house with me (not actually wearing it). There are no children in my home, and it's still never out of my sight. If someone is coming over, I'll actually wear it concealed.

Either on my hip or in a Remora holster within arms reach. Always.
