One of the ARs that is a go to!!
i'd toss the spouse at them. she'd put up enough of a fight, i'd be able to grab what ever is closer
Am I the only one here who's got the loaded guns even in the bathrooms?
I have 2 shotguns and 4 pistols around my house that are ready to go all the time.
Feedback or what left of it after a Great Crash of 2012.

Is everyone just paranoid? Or do you all live in bad neighborhoods? Or do you not trust your locks around the house? Perhaps it's just me, but I live alone and am not worried of someone breaking into my apartment. No kids either. I guess I could see having a firearm nearby in a bad neighborhood with no alarm system on the house and with a family living with me.
Granted I have a 5" sheathed knife hanging from my night stand, my pistol is in the closet (3ft away from bed) with a loaded mag accessible by left hand, pistol accessible by right hand (but I still have to insert the mag and chamber a round).
But I just got my Glock LE Pricing Purchase Certificate from GSSF and plan on adding a G35 or G23 as my other pistol. Which would most likely be my SHTF firearm of choice. I also have about 600rds of ammo, I sometimes feel I should get more...
edit: perhaps, I just imagine you guys having AR's, AK's, pistols and shotguns laying next to your beds. I can understand having firearms accessible in a hurry, but the need for a firearm in every room, or loaded already (not just mags loaded sitting nearby) is a bit much. And this is coming from a boy scout who grew up being prepared.

It's a fine line between paranoid and prepaired. In my experience the one being made fun of as paranoid are the exact same person everyone runs to right before the shooting starts.
Mom's comin' 'round to put it back the way it ought to be.
Anyone that thinks war is good is ignorant. Anyone that thinks war isn't needed is stupid.
I live in a nice neighborhood. Bad things happen to good people in good neighborhoods. I am just prepared. I wont be caughtinmyhouse without some sort of defensive weapon within arms reach. I even cut my grass with my CCW on. I work on the vehicles with my CCW on. You just never know. Rather have it and not need then not have it and need it. YMMV![]()
True, I mean I always have my CRKT M16-13Z knife on me, a lighter, and a pen. Though I have considered getting a quality shotgun, as they are relatively cheap and very reliable for defensive purposes.
