Have a weapon in you bathroom?
I took the Browns to the Super Bowl today and I realized if someone broke in well.. I was shit of luck...
Then I was showering and I thought I hear someone at the door and I was like if I get out they might see my little gun while I run for my pistol

If I am in the shower, the only way I am going to know if someone else is in the house is when they pull back the curtain.  Won't hear anyone at the door.

What a silly question...



From here



I keed, I keed.

To be honest, no, I seldom have a firearm on me while in the house.  I live in an area that it would be difficult to make a surprise visit.

If I'm on the crapper however, I may be SOL.

If I have pants on, I have a pistol.

When talking to a guy about a horse it is cradled between my knees whether in the house or in public.  If I am in the house the family is within arms reach of a weapon

of some sort as well as I am within my pistol.

I have a 180lb Mastiff that does not like strangers and goes nuts when someone is outside, I figure he can hold them at bay until I get to a gun!

The routine in my house is such that my wife is home when I take a shower.  She is NOT a morning person.
Any attempt by a home invader would be met with swift retaliation by an angry redheaded Scorpio.

My house is very tough to break into.  I know I've tried.
I don't wander around the house with a gun on my hip but I usually have an AR or shotgun very close by.

I carry my pistol with me 99% of the time. Basically only if I'm showering, but it's still in my pants on the floor.

It's a risk I'm willing to take.

Yes, I do keep a gun in the crapper, but I should explain that I have a very small house, and, by the design of this house, the bathroom is the last room to get to. There are other guns here, and there, but this one is mostly for the wife, if she has to retreat backwards from a threat. In fact, it's her gun. The one she picked, practiced with, and knows how to use. I've considered the heat, humidity from showers, and such, so I do check it regularly. It's a stainless 3" S&W, that's covered in a silicone cloth. I/we change, or should say, shoot the ammo in it (Hornady, 125 Gr. XTP) and replace it with new stuff 2 or 3 times a year, so I feel pretty good about it being there.

I like that idea.  I will probably do something similar for my bathroom

Ofcourse shower with the glock. How else is it going to get cleaned?

Currently, I have a shower tub. I lay the pistol on the rim while I bathe. If I'm using the bathroom in the morning, same thing.

Throughout the day, if I use the restroom, I'm usually carrying anyway so I have a weapon near me.

I agree that next to sleeping or having sex, being in the restroom is one of your most vulnerable points.

I got a little towel rack I built. (it's.....um...rustic)

Goes on top if I'm in the shower, on the 2nd from bottom shelf, if I'm on the throne.

Mostly because I'm going to put it right back on anyways, but in a bad situation, I wouldn't be in a mad dash.

I always have one in reach. If I'm in the bathroom it's on the counter, and there is always a stainless j frame in a nearby location for if she is home alone.
