No. Its left in the walk-in closet with my clothes, which is about two steps from the shower door.
 
first of all, the moisture from the shower isn't good for metals that will oxidize (rust) nor electronics (cell phones) .For the last 25 years,Mrs right number two is the only company I have in the shower
 
I always have my BG380 in its pocket holster, so yes for bathroom breaks. The only time I carried a firearm for the shower was in Iraq, it was required.
 
Generally no. The only exception is when I'm staying in a hotel room, but that's primarily to not leave it out of my control, not because I worry about bathroom invaders.

And of course I would if I ever stayed in Florida just in case a Burmese python comes up out of the toilet ;) .
 
If y'all didn't hear the story about Lynn Russel, formally of CNN, and her husband read about it:

'Nothing to debate': Second Amendment, legal gun in my purse saved our lives | Fox News

He came out of the shower buck nekkid and the only gun he had was for fun.

I heard her last night on FOX and I think they clipped the end where she said she wished he didn't die. When asked why she said she wanted to shoot him again [and let him suffer].

This one's for the history books. Don't worry there is help out there for you. Perhaps this originated from seeing a movie with this scenario.
 
IMHO, you have to be really, really paranoid to do that. Or live in a really, really bad neighborhood. Or have some really, really bad guys looking for you. Afraid and vulnerable in the shower?

Also, I didn't vote.

Well here in Gwinnett county Ga home invasions are on the rise in places 5 or 6 years ago that were really nice. My neighborhood alone has about 6 section 8 houses in it now. And they don't cut the grass , malt liquor bottles everywhere and for some reason they use sheets for blinds when the house clearly had blinds when purchased. Not to mention the 5 to 10 cars stacked up in the driveway and in the street. And you would think vampires live in them as they seem abandoned till the sun goes down and then its on till I leave for work at 5am. So please before you call someone paranoid do a little research. I am just glad we adopted a puppy at the shelter that turned out to be about 80% pitbull. That's my first line of defense and yes there is a pistol near me where ever I am in the house.

You're kidding, right? Kind of like the guy who said he used to sleep with an ankle holster on?

No, you don't. All you have to do is be a law-abiding citizen in MA, where the law says you lock it up in a tamperproof container (mine is a safe) or have it under your direct control or words to that effect. I'd rather have it in the bathroom under a towel, or under a pair of pants on the floor, than be playing around with the safe. I almost always carry at home, because it's less trouble than getting it into and out of the safe several times a day, and it's pretty useless in the safe, anyway.

There are other good reasons to take a gun into the bathroom, but many of them have been addressed above.
 
No, my girlfriend's cats like to bust in when I/we shower so I'm well protected.
This also reminds me when one of my employees had a break-in years back.
He ran down the street wearing a pair of Flip flops with a samurai sword after the guy past a police station.

I had to call them to confirm why he was late.
 
No.. but it does get a shower
