All of my firearms are kept in a safe, in our bedroom. It's a keylock safe. My wife and I were having a discussion, and she does not feel safe with any of the firearms left out in the open where our two and a half year old daughter may grab ahold of it, regardless of if it's kept loaded or unloaded.
While I agree, this poses another question - what does a person do in the event of a home invasion or burglary? Realistically, if I hear someone prowling around my home, I'll have time to grab my firearm and prepare, however, it isn't always that white and black. There are circumstances where the intruder will just make his way in without any sort of warning signs being displayed. Especially if there are times where my wife or myself forgets to lock the door. We are normally very good about keeping our home locked, but I have caught the door a few times being unlocked.
What sort of solution to the problem do you suggest? I want to keep my firearms safely out of any sort of danger zone from my daughter and when we have small children over (my wife babysits) but I want it easily available if I need it in an emergency.
