Don't confuse not carrying with not having one within reach.100% of home invasions happen at home...
What's an easier reach than on your hip?Don't confuse not carrying with not having one within reach.
One on the desk in front of me that doesn't need to clear a holster or cover garment.What's an easier reach than on your hip?
What do you do when you have to go to the bathroom, one on the back of the toilet? Or when you're grilling a fat steak out on the deck, have one in the kitchen where you're prepping the asparagus that goes with it and then one on the kitchen table and one on the Lazyboy on the way to the deck and another outside on the pic a nic table next to the grill?One on the desk in front of me that doesn't need to clear a holster or cover garment.
That's what having a robust home security set up is for. It doesn't really buy physical security, it buys time.What do you do when you have to go to the bathroom, one on the back of the toilet?

Get your head checked might be a bit extreme. It might be a sign you need to move, though.There is only 1 place a person should feel safe, and that's home. Other than wearing it around the house when you are new to learn for a week or so, is one thing. But if you carry in your house in your holster for home defense, then you have some serious issues. I'm not saying if you have only 1 pistol and you carry it from the living room to the bedroom so it's nearby, that's different.
Get your head checked if you are "packing heat" throughout the house.
Don't give the holster manufacturers any ideas.Imagine never laying on the couch in your underwear watching your favorite show.
Brand used to be called Thunderwear. I'm not kidding.Don't give the holster manufacturers any ideas.
JHC... it's essentially an appendix carry codpiece and is apparently still around.Brand used to be called Thunderwear. I'm not kidding.
You're right. That being said, I used to live in Baltimore and was starting to feel like I needed to carry at home and have bars on the windows, so we moved.I live in a very safe area but with certain exceptions I'm Pants On Guns On. That's not saying that I never pad downstairs on the weekends with a pair of pj pants on or go to events where I will have more than one adult beverage and I don't carry or go to events or places that are GFZs and I simply can't.
What I carry is comfortable enough that it doesn't bother me to carry it 16 hours a day so why not? I have a fire extinguisher on three floors of the house even though the chances of me needing it on the bedroom level are far less than the one in the kitchen or basement.
Homes in nicer safer neighborhoods DO have home invasions, no area is exempt. Are some areas safer? Absolutely. Is the chance of home invasion in your 'hood absolutely zero? Absolutely not.
And telling someone that they should move or get their heads examined if they choose to carry in their homes is just rude IMO.
Also pro tip .... don't make your practice at home weekend the same as your "heavy yard work" weekend.
No children in our home - only me and her.
Loaded G19s hidden but readily accessible in almost every room.
Even have one in the $hitter - I saw what happened to Travolta in Pulp Fiction
