do you carry at home?

[getoff]

if you do, do you open or conceal carry? i carry my lcp and a spare mag in galco horsehide front pocket holsters. lcp right side, spare mag left side. i don't generally carry anything else in my pockets 'cause i'm home. i'll be the first to admit, i also have quick access to a larger firearm. Glock 41 with Arredondo +4 ext. whats your solution to the at home question? NEED to add, i live in a more urban area... if i could, my mini 14 would be over my mantle but that's not an option at my house.

I am on 12 acres, directly across the street is 500+ acres of pasture separated by a creek.

I have encountered many large wild animals while out in the back.

So to the OP, yes...and big.

I have my shield under the couch and the extra mag in the coffee table. My wife's 9mm is under her side of the bed and a shotgun hung up on the wall in our closet. Are house is not very big and the gun safe is in the garage with a few firearms loded out there.

sounds like a place I'd carry my 57 Mountain gun in .41 mag... lucky you!

 

[Mister X]

Not usually. I invested in upgrading my doors and windows and there just really is no getting into my home quickly under any realistic circumstances. I do still have a handgun fairly close no matter where I am in the home. I do pretty much always have a lightweight folder (Spyderco Delica or Endura) on me except when in bed.

 

[TNDave]

I put my gun on when I put my pants on and keep it on until the end of the day. So I do carry at home if I am already carrying. If I get up and am piddling around the house I don't go get a gun. Late in the day when I come out of my stuff I don't have a gun on me either. I do have a dog and a rifle within reach all the time though. I would never go for a pistol when I could go for a rifle.

 

[Smoke]

It depends on how I'm dressed, if I'm wearing a hoodie I have my Shield in my pocket. If not I have my 6906 with in arm's reach.

 

[ContinentalOp]

Yes.*











*When I have a working gun in my posession.

 

[Protected One]

I wouldn't necessarily say concealed, but there is a gun on my person, or within arms reach.

 

[Arik]

No. Not in the home. Our crime rate is almost none. There are no home invasions or armed robbery or drugs or tweekers or anything like that. I think there were like 6 violent crimes last year and all involved fights. That being said I do keep a gun near buy within arms reach but I do not carry

 

[colt_saa]

No need inside the house. It is hard to get more than 3 paces from a defensive firearm in my house.

If I step outside, I usually pocket a S&W Centennial as I go out the door

 

[gmiller0737]

Most of the Time I carry at least My Ruger LCP in a Pocket Holster & I usually have either My 3913 or a HK USP 9 DAO Handy

 

[Ballistic147]

Spent the day working in the yard with my little TCP in a pocket holster. That gun stays in my pocket no matter where I'm at. After seeding the lawn and getting everything cleaned up I took a shower and back in my pocket it went. Currently kicked back in the recliner and yes, the TCP is in my pocket. We live in a small, fairly quite rural community where not a lot goes on. Anytime I leave the house the Shield or 40c is with me along with the little TCP.

 

[rock_castle]

Yes. Whichever gun I carried that day. On the weekend I usually carry my J Frame in my pocket.

 

[Bozz10mm]

Yes, I do carry at home, both concealed, and open carry depending on my mood. Crime statistics show that 100% of home invasions take place.......well, in the home.

 

[STCM(SW)]

Do I have a hand gun on me in the house?

Does a bear @#$% in the, well you know!

 

[ImprovedModel56Fan]

The law here says carry it or have it in a tamperproof locked container. I follow the law.

 

[MadJack!]

If I'm wearing my lounging clothes it's nearby. If I'm dressed, then it's on me.

 

[CoMF]

Yes, and either/or depending on how I'm dressed (belt or pocket carry). The J-frame lends itself very well to the role of an "always" gun.

I don't criticize others for not carrying in their home. My reasons are because I do not get to choose whether we're going to be "that home" or not and I'm not keen on leaving a loaded firearm unsecured and unsupervised.

 

[Kanewpadle]

Don't need to. My house is a fortress.
