For most of these dolts, I would guess having any type firearm in a person’s residence constitutes unsafe storage. To them firearms are a total mystery, and as such can only be handled by certain specific individuals serving in specific official capacities. They’ve most likely lived their entire lives in suburban settings and everything they know about guns they’ve learned from the MSM. They’re only exposure to guns in the real world is seeing one strapped on a policeman’s side.

Their fear is very real but it’s based on a virtual reality created by the media. In their world guns are very dangerous and unpredictable therefore ordinary citizens should be denied ownership. The medical establishment bought into this lie some time ago along with the teacher’s unions, politically motivated leo groups and countless other professional organizations.

Proper storage means:

A: if unloaded and/or not under my personal control (in my hand or attached to my person), then in my gun safe.

B: Loaded, holstered and on my person.

A firearm, under any other circumstances, loaded or not,is not a wise thing. The “nightstand” gun is the vehicle by which most thugs arm themselves.

The only responsible method of storing a loaded gun is always to insure it under your personal control. Yes, I carry virtually from the moment I arise to the moment I lay down. I’d guess the only time I violate my rule is when I am in the shower and the holstered, loaded firearm is on the commode seat...

When I lay down for the night, that same loaded firearm goes into the pistol locker secured to my bed frame-three pushes of the LED buttons and it springs open.

It is the “bearing” of Arms that has virtue, “keeping” is collecting.

As always, God Bless!
