    Never store a firearm loaded. Firearm safety 101. If you own guns but not a safe or a shit ton of trigger or action locks then you’re doing it wrong.

      Pass. What’s the point of my bedside emergency gun if it’s not loaded. If you have kids though lock em up.

        It’s certainly not responsible of you to keep a loaded firearm next to your bed, that sounds like paranoia, if you’re an American then you’re just going to ignore this comment however, if you legally own a firearm outside of America please be responsible and take safety seriously.

          Home invasions happen my dude. Why not be prepared? I make good money in an area that’s largely low income, I’m not taking any chances. Trigger can’t pull itself, you gun nuts crack me up. Who is it irresponsible to? The kids I don’t have?

            Owning a firearm for you is a right, for everyone else around the world it’s a privilege. Being a responsible firearms owner is more important than you may think, which means proper storage of ammunition, parts and guns themselves.

            Home invasions happen my dude. Why not be prepared?

            Yes, they do happen however, your response should be proportionate in such an event. Again for you self defence in your home is a right given the castle doctrine law, not everyone who possesses a firearm has the right to shoot intruders.

            Trigger can’t pull itself

            No but an un-informed individual could load truncated ammo into a tubular magazine, drop the gun and have their entire upper receiver blow off.

            you gun nuts crack me up.

            What’s nuts is your blatant carelessness in regard to firearm ownership and handling.

              Who the fuck is going through my nightstand in my house? I have no kids. Wack. For that matter, if someone was rifling through my stuff they probably deserve to get shot, nobody should be going through my nightstand. I have a safe as well, but that’s for security, not safety. There is only one form of gun safety and it’s knowing how to handle a gun. That and them being locked around kids, but as stated I don’t have kids, and kids don’t come to my house.
