What’s Your Bedroom Gun?

[QuietClick]

I'm curious what kind of firearm you keep nearby when you're sleeping. Is it for peace of mind or actual home defense? Maybe you've got a favorite safe or a light setup that makes it easy to access?

The bump in the night gun is a Ruger GP100 in .357 magnum.

If the perimeter breech alarm is screaming, and Teddy the Aussie Shepard is engaged, it's the Ruger Mini-14.

Depends which room I'm in.

The GP100 is a nice pistol. Had one decades ago and ran 1000s of rounds through it. Back then, I wasn't as diligent about ear protection and now 30+ years later I'm seeing the results of my youthful folly...80% deaf, but with modern tech (hearing aids) reduces it to about 40%. The .357 round has a bark like no other!

I have two that are in my bedroom. First is the Springfield Hellcat and then the Glock 27. I normally use the Hellcat for daily carry but at night it lays on the top of my dresser. The Glock is in the night stand drawer and ready if needed. Both are very comfortable and accurate to shoot.

Good gun. Gave my P07 to my oldest grandson for his carry gun - he loves it.

My Taurus G3c does nightstand duty/general home defense, Mrs. Magnum prefers a manual safety so it fit the bill. I know I know, I'm crazy for saddling my wife up with a Taurus right? That gun is extremely reliable, extremely accurate, and very easy to control. I keep my EDC close by as well so my Ruger Speed Six in 357 magnum qualifies too.

I have a Beretta 92 with some Underwood 90 gr +P Defender in the mag. I am not a huge fan of 9mm, but that pistol is such a rock-solid performer, that when I have to rely on something when I hear a bump in the night, that would be it. I am a 10mm fan, but I end up tinkering with my guns, so the ones I rely on have to remain stock. My primary carry piece is a Sig p229 Legion in .357 Sig.

Switched handguns for bedroom gun. Since I bought the 817 Taurus I've been shooting and carrying that. What ever I'm carrying usually just ends up on the nightstand.

I'm going with a 4" GP 100 in .357. At times it trades places in the safe with a Python of the same caliber and barrel length.

Well, today it would be a s&w M&P m2.0 5" 40 s&w. Looking to convert that to 9mm and add a Kuna.

I have a M&P 40 compact that I haven't even shot yet. I would like to say I use my 4" S&W M&P 2.0 10mm for everything, but reliability has been spotty, and I have swapped springs around, including mag springs, so I don't really want to bet my life on it. History shows the lighter caliber M&Ps are super solid choices, though.
