But then I started thinking; if I have a gun in the house for defense, it obviously has to be readily accessible during emergencies, but it also should not be accessible to curious kids. Those two criteria are mutually exclusive, are they not? How can I have the firearm ready to use quickly, yet safely put away? This is probably the biggest argument my wife has against firearms in general. If I can answer this question, I think she'd be much more apt to allow it. I could put the proverbial foot down and say I'm getting one and that's that, but I have to live with her, so I'd like to find a more persuasive argument. Until then, I'm stuck potentially bringing a bat to a gunfight if an armed intruder does break in. |
To answer your question Brian of keeping a loaded gun safe and have easy access. There is a lock that mounts the firearm to the wall and is push button combo. It keeps the action locked and the stock and barrel are visible. I am looking for the manufacturer and a pic I took when I was at the gunshow last month. Here it is.
