Then I supposed I could be charged with attempted murder because I have a loaded gun, haven’t fired a shot at anyone, but am in control and could do so if I intended.

In analogy to THIS ruling, your firearm could be completely demilled and unusable, and you are guilty of Attempted Murder.

People HAVE been convicted for "use of a gun in the commission of a drug crime" for simply having a gun in the house when raided for drugs. See, they claimed the gun was used to protect the drugs.
