I kinda alternate between a 1911 and my old Highway Patrolman in .357. Depents on which one was placed on shelf in closet.

Springfield XD-40 next to the bed and a Mossy next to the bedroom door

I keep a 45 auto for my bedroom gun and a good ol 590 Mossyberg for a shotgun. Ain't a purty gun but that ol shotgun is formidable and better than any handgun. But I really like my 45's

My first line of defense is a pit-bull cross named Buddy, who sleeps at the foot of my bed (though frankly my wife may be meaner). Next is a single-shot Super Comanche handgun with a load of 410 buckshot. While neither may kill an intruder, he'll sure wish he had never come knocking!

Snub nose Model 19 in .357 magnum and a Winchester Model 1897 pump in the corner.

Jon707,

Very good thread!

I keep a 1911 on the nightstand and a 12 gauge turkey gun in the corner stoked with 4Buck. I whacked 3 skunks so far this month by the front yard bird feeder with the 12. I live in a very rural area and calling 911 is not a viable option for skunks or home invaders, not that there is much difference.

Be well.

Adam and Skeet think like me.
My 870 has a reddot and extended mag.
I also alternate a Springy XD45 Service model (nice gun!) with the 1911 gov't.
But then I might have the S&W 686Plus snubbie
Or the AR with reddot and 20rnd mag
or...
A Surefire flashlight is under my pillow.
Keeps me from trampling the critters that scatter when the pager goes off for a late night emergency call.

A blued Smith & Wesson Model 10 (M&P) 4" loaded with .38 Special 158 grain LSWCHP. Its pretty similar to the older police standard model.
