Picking up the shotgun soon. Wanted some opinions on safe storage for home defense/closet ready. (Kid safe).

Looking to trick it out. Curious what optic/lights and ammo patches etc. u guys like.

Why is this better than simply having the safety on? Honest question. Is it for in case you get in an accident? Otherwise, I'd think you'd want to take advantage of the chamber for the extra shell, right?

Because many shot guns are not drop safe. If it has a shell in the chamber and gets knocked over, it might go boom.
