They have an OWL alarm. You place it near doorways and outside around the house. It will alarm ring if anyone passes it. Deff a great help to let home owners know someone is outside at night when sleeping.

Rather have two hands on my firearm and a light attached. Even at low ready (not pointed at a ptoential target being a child or a dog) will light the room up regardless to target identify. Its not a laser its a light, it will light up much more than what you're directly pointing at

Good advice. Never thought about just defending one position or room , as opposed to your entire home which is almost impossible and high risk. Interesting to hear you’ve got locks on your bedroom door to prevent access.

As an empty nester, I am a safety click away from a trigger press on my bedside AR and pillow pistol. If I had kids at home, my carry gun would still go from my pocket to my pillow, still in holster of course. My bedside AR would be unloaded with a magazine in a ready action safe during the day and under my pillow at bedtime.

Mine is sitting on my nightstand loaded and there’s no safety switch except for my pointer finger on my right hand. When I drive for Uber it’s tucked in its holster on my hip loaded there’s a round in every chamber of every gun I own.

Good advice. Keep a gun accessible. When a home intruder kicks in your door, he may be between you and your guns. Moreover, you have seconds to act, and that gun locked up in the safe in the back of the house is of no use to you. When gun control advocates say "safe storage" they mean safe for criminals, not homeowners.
@pauljenkins68777 ай бұрын
Nonsense. Safe storage is important for reasons so obvious that they don’t need to be explained. If a criminal can kick in your door faster than you can get to your gun, stored in a safe place…Get. A. Stronger. Door.
@willieboy30117 ай бұрын
A door is not difficult to breach at all. The home intruders have the element of surprise. A locked gun in a safe at the other end of the house puts the homeowner at the mercy of the bad men. Perhaps this is where you prefer, but I prefer to defend myself. @@pauljenkins6877

Have have a hand gun in a quick access box in living room, same for other end of house in wash room and in my bedroom a 300 AAC pistol in a Shotlock box on wall and each weapon has a light. Finally, since I live alone, if someone was coming into my home at two in the morning I'm pretty sure it is a foe and not a friend

When I'm awake and out of bed, my pistol is always on me or occasionally in a carry bag next to me [ cooking, showering, etc. ]. When sleeping, it's in my carry bag that is at arm's length. I have to sit up to reach it, with my handheld light and phone.

My rule is that any gun that’s not in the room with me is locked in my big safe. I don’t like having guns stashed around the house where either a kid or burglar can get to them before I can. But at any given time I have at least a full size pistol in the same room as me, if not a long gun. I keep pistols fully loaded then either in a holster or quick access pistol safe so the trigger is covered. I keep long guns condition 3 typically.

Hey guys new gun owner (Taurus G3) My safety won't lock with the slide back. Plus my slide won't release with a magazine in it. Have to release magazine then hit slide button release. Am I doing something wrong? Okay just watched a vid on the G3 and the slide release does work with magazine in it. Very hard to do tho, much easier when mag is out. Now if I can figure out about the safety not locking with slide back?? TIA Jay

If I'm running around my house naked, i wouldn't need a gun **wink** lol perp can't steal when he/she is vomitting and gagging lol great idea for the shotgun. Is it inside of a "box" or just above the door on some sort of mount? I have 12ga I need to replace the seals in and do some shooting (hasn't been fired for about 25 yrs) that I would like to have for home defense but the storage has always eluded me. I just don't have a great space that is accessible for a large safe in the home i rent. We use biometric/coded bedside safes for our handguns and i keep my Olight warrior 3 mini bedside next to my phone, but right now that's all i have in place. Thanks for a great video and reminders to stay prepared.

Safe storage and first aid is excellent. Also if you have term life insurance your insurance company would prefer your TV gets stolen and you remain alive. Don't shoot someone stealing your TV. Pay the deductible, brand new TV.

I have watched your videos for years, even talked with Kim about scheduling a class for my staff before COVID. Great respect for you both but I must say that OPEN BOLT or equivalent is a BAD idea for all except the most vigilant and professional. We all must balance being ready for a threat with daily life. And all people need the right to make such decisions based on their own personal experiences and situations. Government mandates about safe storage are a bad joke. If you live alone and need a hearing aid then a biometric safe is the wrong choice for you!

never ever have a pistol as ur self defense as ur first choose weapon in ur home but a good revolver, 357 magnum Colt or a SW…pistols might have more rounds but they have few steps to get you ready in the night, use a pistol some where in the house to be used during the day or carry but during the night the revolver is way better
@FloridaTwoWheelAdventures5 ай бұрын
A revolver is a pistol. I think you mean semiauto pistol vs revolver pistol. Aside from that, people are better off to train and become intimately familiar with the gun they plan to use for a self defense situation. Many people cannot afford, or otherwise do not wish to own, multiple weapons. While I’m a fan of revolvers for their reliability, too many of them are double action which can be an issue for novice shooters. Which can be even more of an issue during the middle of the night as they’re half asleep. My recommendation is to find a firearm you are comfortable operating and train with it. Keep it simple and don’t involve too many fine motor functions to operate it because those skills wont exist when you’re roused from a deep sleep.

So are you saying a handgun in one hand and a handheld flashlight in the other hand versus both hands on the handgun I think that's misinformation if that's what you're saying and the beam of a weapons mounted light in your house is going to show you exactly what is being illuminated without actually having the barrel pointed at a child or a dog let alone not having your finger on the trigger until you have your Target in your sights?
@geaugafirearmsacademy7 ай бұрын
You are still able to put two hands on a gun with a handheld. There are several holds. Training would teach you both handheld and weapon mounted techniques.
