Yep. What he said

Uncle Jay says it all.

I cannot improve, except to remind people that weird stuff happens whether you are prepared for it or not. Therefore, be prepared for it.

ALWAYS have your gun ready. Always have at least one more within easy reach. I carry at home, all day, every day. There are more guns strategically placed in case I need them. The likelihood of *actually* needing them is pretty small, but it is not non-existent.

When the ride gets rough, will you be ready?

Ditto. I feel better knowing I'm not the only one.

Same here. FWIW, some Technical Advice. A Stainless J-Frame with rubber grips and Nickel cased ammo is good as a Bathroom Stash Gun, due to the High Humidity present. Also, as a Proponent of the New York Reload School, for those who can afford it, I'd go Port and Starboard with my Street Carry Guns, provided that they are the Same Make and/or they can take each others Magazines. As Clint Smith has said, "Do you expect the Ammo Fairy to give you an Airdrop in the middle of a Fire Fight?" Plus, this allows you to hand one off to a trusted Partner, and it reduces the Murphy's Law that says "Your gun will work perfectly up to the second you need it." YMMV, of course.
