If you're not opening the door why do you need to specifically grab a gun before going to the door?
Let me try to try to communicate my point in a different way.
Have you heard people say "I only carry a gun when go somewhere where I might need it." and someone else says "If where you're going is so bad you think you might need a gun, why are you going there?" This is the same concept.
First let me state clearly that I carry a gun at home so REGARDLESS of who knocks on my door I open the door with a gun on me just like BWZ. I'm just not making a special point of taking a gun to the door.
Second the rule in my house is we don't open the door until the identity of the person on the other side is known. If there's any question that it isn't safe to open the door we don't
period.
I can't think of a single time that we weren't able to identify the person knocking before we opened the door.
