For those that keep a loaded gun in the bedroom, anyone ever consider the what if of walking in on a burglar and getting blasted by your own gun? I have a monitored alarm system so I know if I get to the door and hear my alarm screaming, someone has penetrated my fortress. I have wondered what if a cop responded and my weapon was the one a bad guy used to shoot at the cops when they arrived.

An argument could be made that if a bad guy got to your gun before you did, he might get messed up by not racking a round in the chamber. It might give you a split second more to fight or flight before he figures out how to rack a round in the gun.

I dunno...just some random thoughts I have had.

PS..I don't know how scared a bad guy would get when they hear that sound but I can tell you my daughters Chihuahua runs like the wind when he hears it. We are thinking he might have been a BG in a past life. Maybe a Mexican drug smuggler or something. Knives scare him too.
