There's nothing stopping you from keeping your shotgun under your bed with your ammo in your nightstand right beside you. Just keep the key in the bedroom with you where a kid can't get at it.

If you don't have time to grab a key in your bedroom chances are your going to get killed before you even know what's going on anyway.

I keep a pistol grip Mossberg beside my bed (with trigger lock on) and I have a nice bayonet on the end of it in case I need to get pokey.
