No kids in my place and someone is home just about all of the time. This allows me to keep things placed where they are withing easy reach.
Same here.

Exactly. Safes in my house aren't for burglars.
That's the hope!I had the same agreement with my kids. Worked out great. They are now 18 and 16. They handle guns very well and are nonplussed by firearms.

Anyway, hidden would be best but at least have something to slow folks down or keep kids, etc.. from just getting to the firearms easily. I would never just have a firearm out in the open or in a nightstand, etc.. without it being in some kind of pistol safe. It seems like too much of a liability.
There are several companies that make awesome hidden pistol boxes, furniture, etc.. to store an HD gun. Some are quite expensive, some less so.

Mine are in a gun safe when not at home. I have a pistol safe under the bed with a quick release. When I am at home one of my pistols is always by my side. When kids are around most things are locked up except the pistol on my belt.
my ammo is kept in smaller, (unfortunately) easier to break-into safes that could potentially be carried out of the house but being full, are quite heavy.
This part concerns me. My safe is "fire-resistant" the door seal will melt and seal up in a fire. Some things can take extended heat in an inferno, some can't. I fear ammo in a safe as a "pressure cooker" bomb effect. I can't see putting my ammo in a safe.

Although it isn't in the living space, that had never crossed my mind ---
