Which Is Faster? - LewRockwell

March 12, 2014

I’m not a big fan of leaving loaded guns lying around the house because it’s kinda like leaving the bleach jug in the refrigerator next to the milk jug: Something bad is going to happen, it’s not a question of IF, it’s only a question of WHEN.

So we decided to test things to find out if a gun safe safe is a better alternative to leaving your gun in a nightstand drawer, and the results really surprised us.

A few notes about this test:

Jaci and Robert are almost identically-skilled as shooters
They used guns they were familiar with
Robert was not familiar with how to use that gun safe because we wanted to simulate the stress of figuring out how to open it correctly under stress
The shots were so close together, the shot timer app on my phone couldn’t tell them apart.

The gun safe we used was this model from Paragon safes, but if I’m honest, I prefer GunVault safes.
