Yeah, but I recommend you start with a .22 until your keister holster breaks in. Don't try to start with a .45 or shotgun.
Best answers.
Here's what I don't like of leaving guns around the house (unlocked) . . .
- When you leave the house, every time, will you be locking them up before you leave and then unlock and put them back in their various places when you return?
Having come home when burglars were in my house (they ran out the back door as we drove up the driveway), if guns were in the house, they might have decided to shoot me with my own gun as I went to enter the house. Thus, I am not in favor of leaving guns "unattended" (or unlocked up) when I'm not home. And "on my hip" is the best answer IMNSHO.

In our lovely state you either have it in your direct control or you lock it up. Why would I want to lock up my carry gun?
And as far as the shower is concerned; if it's good enough for Big Jake it's good enough for me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lCYxEOOCRU

In the dominant hand, because you at your most vulnerable. Would not hurt to have a bug in an ankle holster too.How practical is it to have a gun on you 7x24 in your home? When you're in the shower washing your ass, should you also have one with you?

I like a shoulder holster at home. Great when you are wearing gym shorts... which is typical attire even in the winter.

I bought my first gun in New Mexico in the early 90's, a S&W snub nosed .38. While making my purchase an elderly woman came over and spoke to me. She told me she lived on a ranch far from the city, and she had one of that same model revolver hidden in each room of her house, just in case...

I can see where washing your ass in the shower might be a problem, try outside, you might have more space.
I just don't shower. A spritz of fabreeze once a week and I'm good to go.How practical is it to have a gun on you 7x24 in your home? When you're in the shower washing your ass, should you also have one with you?

The shower beats cleaning your Glock(s) in the dishwasher.

If it is a Glock, why not just strap a loofah to the slide and you can scrub your Glock and your rooster at the same time. Just ... remember ... trigger discipline.
And $80 last I saw it in the stores. (might have been a sale price as it was $100 earlier).

Follow up questions: while in the shower you hear an intruder.............. do you put on your underwear before confronting the bad guy? a towel?
do you hope he'll run away at the sight of a naked man with a gun?
if the water was cold will he start laughing uncontrollably?
what if it's a woman, and she wants to get all sexed up?
gee, way bad, what if it's a man and he wants to get all sexed up?

That NRA magazine column always has 2-3 badass mofo's busting into someone's house, shooting them, and then getting shot up after the homeowner retrieves their gun. Really hard to picture that scenario...
Had to be a sale price; I paid $110 at my local shop. Admittedly it was an impulse purchase.
