Re: Another n00b in Austin, TX

I'm sure other have their own ideas and methods for dealing with loaded guns in the proximity of small children, but here's my method. I have two young girls (6 and 8) and while I have gun-proofed them and trust they would never touch a gun I accidentally left out, I am concerned about their playmates who are frequently at my house. I have a small electronically activated drawer safe that I keep by the bed for storing the only loaded gun in the house. I don't have my plastic yet, but I plan to get another one to place my carry gun in when off my person at home. I'm certainly aware of the disadvantages of this as it does take about 8 seconds to open the safe and remove the gun. It's a compromise that I feel has to be made to accommodate the situation.
