I don't know about y'all, but I'm not in the habit of answering the door with a gun in my hand - maybe on my hip but not in my hand. And if I ever did, it wouldn't be in plain sight of the person who rang the doorbell.
This. That's what the peephole is for. If somebody actually takes the time to knock, I'll give them the benefit of the doubt (albeit with my pistol behind my back).
Depending on the circumstance I will have a gun in my hand, usually behind my back or leg, it takes time to draw it and a push in robbery happens too fast.
