Keeping guns stored in a vault with children present is generally a good idea if you have one or more weapons that you occasionally use. However for self defense purposes, you typically don't want to be fiddling around with a vault if someone is invading your home. I'm not commenting on the likelihood of that scenario, but it is something people consider when they own firearms.

A surprising number of people like the idea of fingerprint scanning, biometric sensing, bluetooth bracelet detecting ... gun vaults. Inside of which is a 100% reliable non-smart firearm.

Everything is a tradeoff. When I have kids, I'll probably have a small bedside safe of some kind... and just be willing to accept that it makes it a little slower to get the gun out.

I was actually referring to a specific product called a Gunvault. It isn't great for preventing a burglary, since it can just be carried off, but it opens quickly and is a decent way of keeping children's hands off of a gun.
