I keep mine in a safe for a couple of reasons. One, safety. Two, I live in a very anti-gun part of the country and don't want to advertise them to people who come to the house (wife's friends).

I built a hidden room in my new house. It has a solid core door with several locks and each gun is locked and stored on a pegboard wall.

When i was a kid, someone broke into our house and stole our whole gun safe. We figured it was someone we knew but never found out who it was.

Bolted down? I was gonna put mine inside but no where really to bolt down so it went in my garage. It will take a truck pulling it out to get it and honestly that wouldn't blow my mind if someone tried but at least I am gonna make it hard to get.

Am I allowed to keep one in the nightstand?

One thought would be to get a cheap shitty gun locker and put some shitty guns in it. Hide the good stuff elsewhere.


I'ma tell ya,you wouldn't be fooling many. Most guns stolen are by close acquaintances or family members.

Serious as a heart attack.


My grandfather was an avid gun collector and this is one of the things he told me when I was young. Don't ever show people where you keep your guns, even friends. He had a couple less valuable guns locked in a gun rack which would be easy to break into, and the rest of his stuff was in a safe elsewhere. It wasn't until I was about 20 that he showed me his bench safe which was in the kids playroom where we would play when I was little.

I don't have the same setup, but I spent a lot of money on a very nice safe, and my house alarm is always set. They might be able to get in, but they won't have a enough time to get anything out of that safe.

Wife and I moved into a new house a few years back and had been living there for less than a week. We had to leave town for the weekend and I forgot to hide my guns that were stuck in one of the beds. 45 minutes after we left somebody busted out our back window and stole my 870 and 30-30. The 30-30 was the hardest one to lose because every deer I have ever killed was with that gun.

Never found them.
