Lots of places to stash a handgun when expediency requires it and if it's not likely to create an immediate safety hazard.
According to the local gendarme, most casual 'smash-n-grab' house thieves toss the master bedroom/closet, the office/TV areas, and the kitchen/common area/wherever the mail lays. They're looking for cash, drugs, or easily portable 'tronics. That leaves a lot of areas of the place that they'll NOT look.
Heck, I know a guy whose house was ransacked and the thieves never noticed the handgun positioned behind the books on the bookcase near the front door.... He now uses small handgun safes bolted to bookshelves that are then bolted to the wall. It's not perfect, but they're unobtrusive and a thief would have to be pretty determined or armed with some hardware (crowbar or such) to make off with them...
