I don't see single action gun. Is that what you meant by "SA"?The security gaurd has his firearm nearby and not on his person without a round in the chamber.

Do you know what "SA" means? I was thinking South Africa or South America but can't be either of those. Then I was thinking stupid A$$hole. Damn I hate acronyms, especially ones that could mean like a hundred different things.A veritable POT-luck of stupid behavior.
Condition 3 has been associated with the IDF , and I have heard mention of magazine safeties being a good thing in central/South American militaries.Do you know what "SA" means?

I was trying to think of a gun that woudl have given guard an advantage in that situation (assuming it ready to rock I mean). Maybe shotgun with barrel pointed to floor then all he would have to do is raise it, aim and fire. Similar with 3oo BLK or AR pistol. On body carry an mp5k or similar smaller subgun like an evo or Stribog woudl work also.Condition 3 has been associated with the IDF , and I have heard mention of magazine safeties being a good thing in central/South American militaries.
I've never heard Condition 3 described as SA.
I've been working on security on my house with the goal of slowing any home invader down as much as possible, and adding motion sensors to alert me to their presence.
I also keep pistols in every room I spend time, except the bathroom, because of the extreme humidity.
I'm lucky in that my house is a long rectangle with no windows on the ends. I put security bars on everything on the back of my house. My 4 motion sensors are back to back in the center of the outside walls, 2 front, 2 back, and they catch all movement within a couple of feet of my house.
The writing on the wall says everything is going to get much worse in the future, and I want to be way ahead of the game.
That's a good idea to plan for an outside-in defense imo. ID the threat and perhaps engage them on the perimeter if needed. Then slow them down with hardened locks,windows etc so you can engage them on the curtilage (the area next to the house such as porch etc) if needed. If they do get through those 2 zones have the ambush ready so they have no chance.I've been working on security on my house with the goal of slowing any home invader down as much as possible, and adding motion sensors to alert me to their presence.

Well, cannabis dispensary activity at 3:00 AM has to involve individuals whose lives are right on track!A veritable POT-luck of stupid behavior.
My neighbor had his house appraised recently and he got dinged for having security bars on his shop windows.That's a good idea to plan for an outside-in defense imo.

The little experience I have here in crimeville is you have tons of options (and time probably) when they are on the perimeter, on the curtilage you have fewer options, inside the house you have very few options and no time (I have not experienced this one thank goodness and fingers crossed). I've moved away baddies that were identified on the perimeter (via cameras that alerted my phone) with just a flashlight in one instance and voice in another instance. The one guy who was actually trying to break in the cameras identified him and I watched him on phone until he was penned in and then confronted him from a window above him. I had shotgun in hand but did not show it to him as voice was all that was needed.

I have the bars for my front living room window, but I haven't installed them yet, because they would be visible to the neighbors. I would probably install them if I were to go on a road trip, or the SHTF. If I did decide to go on a road trip I would install them on the inside of the window, to make them less visible.
My front window is about 6 feet off the ground, and my 2 bedroom windows are about 8 feet off the ground, making them almost impossible to access easily without a ladder.
