Should you keep fuel in your vehicle, air in the tires?

An empty Glock 17 makes a fine club!!! Bit on the 'spensive side tho.
I've heard all the arguments about giving away your position etc. This isn't a Battlefield scenario slipping around like a Navy seal quietly to infiltrate a compound. It is My choice to keep my shotgun without a round in the chamber as a safety precaution in my home, but racking it to ready to fire is a necessary evil if my security is breached. My safeties make a click sound too albeit not as loud.
Most criminals are Dumb , but if they start shooting when I rack the slide , I will return fire faster than you can say Oh hell.
Unless they have been in my home they have no clue as to layout and I have the advantage.
As a side note , we group Hunted big Game in Alaska the same way...NO round in the chamber. safety off. If you couldn't work the Bolt fast and aim and fire you didn't hunt with us. Period. An accidental discharge from a Remington 700 that had the original trigger pack that went off when the safety was clicked off to unload the rifle got all of our attention, and the rule was made at that point.
Guns are mechanical and parts can fail. I will always err on the side of Safety first....
How does that work with black powder?It all depends on your household situation.
For me and where and how we live...I keep our house gun loaded.
What works in one household may not work in another...It is not my place to tell someone else what they need to do in their home...

Get the arrow and lead at the same time.I Bet Andy can load and be ready to fire about the same amount of time it takes to rack a shotgun... it may be the ramrod going into the intruder but oh well.... lol
Well.....How does that work with black powder?
I disagree and I disagree with suggesting to people that the sound of a shotgun being pumped is a good deterrent.
