But talking about home defense is seriously ridiculous, imo. Everyone thinks they are a billy bad ass swat member but in the 0.00001% likelyhood you going to be home and targetted for a home invasion, you're more likely to piss your pants and cry in panic than be capable of tactically countering the home invasion.
Plus, good luck getting your keys which are probably in a room that your firearms aren't, unlocking your firearms, then getting your ammo, which isn't stored with the firearm, loading your firearm, and then confronting the home invaders (usually not 1), in less time than it takes them to run up the stairs and fuck your shit up.
This isn't america where you can have your handgun under your pillow ready to roll.
And IF you did use that weapon, you're spending your life in prison and ruining your family anyway NO MATTER WHAT so why even bother.
If you put "home defense" on your PAL application, they will deny you.

Don't get me wrong I agree with all your points...
but just for fun: lock the rooms door, guns(without a trigger lock) would be in a
safe with a pin pad combo lock (no keys), magazines already loaded with ammo(not in the gun), so just open the safe grab the gun+magazines and you're ready to go
Once again agree completely that chances are you won't be able to get your gun, even if you do and shoot at intruders you will most likely get arrested/charged for doing so.
