Curious as to responses as there was a member of my family who did this when showering - saying this is when he felt most vulnerable.
Do you take your weapon into the bathroom when showering?

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.

OP
I am in agreement with you, wondering why my family member felt this way. I discovered this after he passed away.

No. Seeing me naked would neutralize most any threat.

Even if it's in the bathroom, unless you have it in the shower you won't have a chance. The noise of shower will mask any noise an intruder makes, and if you have your gun on the vanity he can walk right in and pick it up while you are rinsing your hair.
That is why I always have a bunch of zip-loc bags in my bathroom. I can seal up my 686+ and have it right next to the soap and shampoo.

This problem doesn't come up here in California.
We have no water, so can't shower.

I voted "Sometimes" because I pocket carry a J-frame and sometime wear my khaki shorts into the bathroom and disrobe there before showering, usually when I have been working in the yard and am really dirty. It keeps me in good graces with She Who Must Be Obeyed.

I have an AR15 and knife right outside the shower.
Who hasn't had times when the odd tool is lost or misplaced that one time it's actually needed? Who's to say what that tool or situation may be?

I take a weapon with me....
I take a weapon with me in the shower but I leave my gun on the toilet tank.

I have a glock that sometimes gets set outside the shower on the counter. The counter is blocked from the door side so nobody would see it.
I live around a bunch of meth heads, and I deal with not very nice people while I'm at work. I may be paranoid, but that doesn't mean someone isn't going to find me someday.

That's a whole bunch of assumptions you've made there... I carry on my property and in my home, why would that stop when I bathe?
I'm not in constant fear of my door being kicked in or something, but if a situation does occur it's good to know I have something in arms reach and not in the next room. You can label me whatever you want.
I keep a model 60 stainless lanyarded to the shower head. Kind of like a "soap on a rope" LOL
It would be out of place next to the bathroom gun

Heck yes! Haven't you seen pulp fiction?!!! Just kidding of course lol.
I don't feel the need to bring my firearm in the bathroom with me unless it's a public bathroom. I don't want to expose it to a moist enviorument if I don't have to.

I've thought about it but have yet to do it. Where I live, I've not felt the need but anything is possible. If conditions were such, I wouldn't hesitate.
