I can certainly understand the rationale behind gun ownership for collecting, hunting, target shooting, etc. I don't participate in any of those activites (too many other vices). But don't hide behind the need for home defense. Why not just tell the truth, like BB above?
If you keep your gun unloaded, and ammo locked up...what are the chances that it'll be useful during a home invasion at 3:30 in the morning? Or, if you keep it in your nightstand loaded, how safe is that with visitors and or kids in the house?
And of course...when was the last time that your home was invaded while you were home? I'm sure it happens, but not often enough for "home defense" to be the reason for owning a gun.
