I have every gun in my house loaded and one hot in the chamber.

I taught each of my kids that they do not handle or play with my guns if I'm not with them.

My dad was the same way
I knew where every gun was located and they were all loaded.

If I played with them while he was gone I unloaded them and then loaded them back afterwards.


Not to sound like an arse but it does not look like you listened to your dad, how do you expect your kids to listen to you? Much less friends they bring over?

I think if you teach the kids and remove the mystery the kids are a lot less likely to handle your guns when you aren't around. Our guns were kept in a gun cabinet with the keys laying on top of it. It never crossed my mind to play with them or handle them unless we were going hunting or shooting with my Dad.
Mine are in a safe, mostly because my wife did not grow up around guns and is not comfortable with them being out in the open. I have 3 boys under 8 and plan on teaching them how I was taught. They have all handled at least one of the guns and know not to play with them or touch the safe if I am not around.
