Most everyone in our area has multiple guns. It's the folks who rave on about how they don't believe in owning guns that get robbed around here. Easy prey.
Firearms in your home ??

Your lucky, in Marine Corps basic, if a DI found your footlocker unlocked they would dump everything out mess it up and dump your Laundry soap all over it. They got me. Guess what I seldom lock my cars or house.

I should move to Pennsylvania just so I can get a license plate with a K4. If only NY offered a NY Central Hudson plate.
I live on rural acreage. I shoot multiple times a week on my home ranges, and most of my neighbors shoot on their properties. Almost every home within miles of me contains firearms. On nice spring days I can often hear gunfire from all directions. We have no home burglaries in the area. Go figure.
That said, we rarely share among ourselves the number of guns we own (could be just one or two) or how fancy they might be (could be Hi Points). Common sense. Also, all guns are in safes when we leave or workman come to do their stuff. Again, common sense. We also have a security system.
BTW, to the absolute horror of some folks here, most of the pickups around here have gun/hunting/outdoor sporting related stickers on them. Living in a very rural area can be very inconvenient and frustrating at times (shopping, medical care,etc.), but I sure wouldn't want to trade it for living in an area where I have to hide who I am. Nice to go to town and to the grocery and immediately get asked "Seeing any quail?" or "Get your buck yet?"

Often the burglars know what they are after. This means family members, acquaintances & their kids, service techs, painters, cleaners, traveling salespeople, etc. that have been in your home or someone you told too much to.
If not them directly, someone they blabbed to.
Stay gray, my friend.
