Tactical Shotgun Storage, would you buy it?

I think I have an idea for a way to store a shotgun loaded and to make it tactically accessable for home defense... for all those people who prefer shotguns to pistols. Two questions: would you consider buying one for your house, and if so, how much would you be willing to pay for such a storage device?

    I would. The reason is that if I need my shotgun, it's because there's an intruder in my home. And if there's an intruder in my home I'm upset, scared, shaky and frightened..........none of which is any condition to be loading a weapon in. I would pay up to $75 for a way to SAFELY store a loaded shotgun.

    actually, for me it would not work. I carry a pistol at all times. But, at night, my shotgun comes out of the safe and goes beside the bed on a rack I built just for that purpose. The ,45 goes on the nightstand after I wipe it down. Next morning, the pistol goes back on and the shotgun goes back into the safe.

    I keep a loaded tactical shotgun in my house. I don't want to store it, or lock it away. I want it accessible. But, what have you got?

    If you had some kind of small safe big enough to hold one shotgun and could be opened quickly, maybe by key pad, then maybe I would buy it.

    You might want to check out atv accessories. I had an atv with a rifle rack that attached to the handlebars. By the way unless your doctor sent in the paperwork for a disability wavier... hunting while on an atv might be illegal in your state. It is in mine. You have to dismount in order to shoot that firearm.

    What does it look like and how does it work?

    I won't consider buying something until I've seen it and seen how it works.

    You mean something like this:

    For me I prefer handguns and need to keep them out of reach of my kid, so I use one of those lockboxes.
