Yeah, I thought I would save you some trouble. I looked all over the web and it looked like a size3 was right, so I got one. It worked but the fit was sloppy, so since uncle Mike's aren't expensive, I ordered the size2 and it fit perfectly. The size 3 fits my E. German Mak well.
Home defense... how do you keep your gun?

Good advice.
I "field" test a number of pistols this way. Discovered that 1911s don't work well for me under pressure situations unless I disable the backstrap safety (which I haven't bothered doing as I have other options that I prefer for HD and CC, including a trusty Glock 32).Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk

Decent point. I debated about this. If I keep it in the quick access (to be determined) safe, then there is really no need to not have 1 chambered.

I can't believe no one has a revolver taped to the underside of their toilet tank.
You may as well leave your doors unlocked.

I'll state it publicly..............I think those that carry without one in the chamber are just plain silly and doing it for show!
That's a debate for another thread though but if you feel as those you need a gun for SD (and I'm not knocking anyone for it, it's a legit notion) than that gun needs to be ready to!!! You don't charge your tool batteries right before you going to use them you keep them charged so when you need them they are ready.
You don't turn your house water on to wash the dishes.

I keep the rifles in the safe with a loaded mag. A shotgun in the closet and a loaded revolver by the bed. I feel that a revolver is a great option for those who don't feel comfortable with a round chambered in a semi auto.

The lack of a round in the chamber is more due to having three young sons, and a wife nervous about having a gun in the house at all. I understand the "if you don't have a loaded gun on every floor of your house, what the hell are you doing?" Viewpoint, but my view is that I am better off now than I was totally unarmed, and i need to train and bring everyone in the house along with comfort, safety, and training.

I wanna go fast
P226 with a 20rd mag in it and a spare 15rd in a quick safe.
When I undress to go to bed the EDC goes from the IWB holster that its lived in all day to a Shoulder holster that hangs right by my bedside. Any gun outside the safe (unless being cleaned) is Condition 1 (And yes - true Condition 1 as I only have SA Hammer fired guns - Primarily BHP's and 1911's)
Following the above advice to time Bed --> Safe --> Gun in hand ready. Now time what it takes to get from each entry point in the house to the safe. (The criminal may be able to beat you to the safe or at least before you can be fully armed).

I had the same situation with Uncle Mike's gun belt. Ordered The 38/40 for a 37 inch waist and it was huge. The 34/36 for 37 inch waist barely made it.

.38 snubby in the nightstand drawer loaded with 6 - jacketed hollow point plus P rounds with 2 speed loaders next to it.
Simplest of all to use,... point and fire!
Fall back weapon is the 12 gauge pump in the closet loaded with five - 00 buckshot in the tube and one in the pipe.
If I need more than that, I am in deep doo-doo!

A screaming alarm that you can trigger will mess up the mind of any criminal. I keep one for my wife to use. Also a deadbolt on your bedroom door. Save your ammo for the range...
What kind/type of tape do you recommend?

Glock 21 trl-1 loaded one in the pipe on top of my bedroom safe if I'm home. Also my badass jack russell will rip your leg off.
