What’s your bedroom gun?

[MaxMan]

[bowzette]

Glock 19

 

[NukeRef]

9mm PX4 Compact loaded with Critical Defense. Has a BALDR Mini mounted, but my alarm system will turn on all the lights in the house except the bathrooms and closets, so it really isn't necessary.

It worked for Audie Murphy! He slept with a 1911 and a knife until he died

Wow, tell more about your time with the legendary Mr Murphy

No personal connection with Audie Murphy. I read an interview with his widow who was telling about his PTSD. She said that he slept with those weapons and had night terrors. She worked for the VA until she was 87 and died at 90 years of age.

Damn, guessed I'm still jet lagged from recent trip. I mistook It for I. D'oh
Apologize for my error.
I recall hearing that or reading it some years back also

Bedroom gun...

One rainy night a young woman, totally drenched, came to my door seeking shelter. Being a good host, I offered her one of my spare bedrooms. In that bedroom is a Queen bed with two mattresses and that's where I let her sleep. Between the two mattresses was a Ruger LCP .380 with three extra magazines.

The next morning, she thanked me for letting her have a place to sleep, but apologetically said that it wasn't too restful because something made the mattress uncomfortable. So I married her.

Model 12 Winchester in 12 gauge (short barrel but legal length) along with Glock 19X pistol close by my bed.
One has to be very, very sure that shooting an intruder, criminal, etc. for keep in mind that every bullet, shot charge that goes down the barrel has a lawyer attached to it. There will be an investigation on anyone that you may shoot and do not discuss anything that took place with law enforcement until you have arranged for a lawyer to defend your action taken. Just a suggestion.

Are you speaking of the Queen of the Nines, The Grand Prissonce , The famous GP 1935, or other wise known as The Browning High-Power ??? They never fail to go bang it seems.

Glock 19

You asked about the "bedroom"=G19. For EDC it is the G42 or G26. I live in the Tampa Bay Area. We have no "winter". My Florida costume is tee shirt/polo shirt, shorts and sandals. The G19 is too large for me to conceal most of the time. The G42 is great for pocket carry in cargo shorts.

 

[Sam Summey]

The short answer, the same one I carry daily. It doesn't do me any good in the bedroom unless I am in there. It is on my person 24 hours a day. (In a "holster" attached to the bed rail at night.)

Oooohhh. I never heard of that gun. Good luck.

 

[RGRacing]

S&W M&P 357 Sig w/Light and extra 15 rd Mag.

 

[HumphreyDaBear]

I've lately been considering switching to a set of Lawn Darts…old school…but I'm guessing they would be pretty effective if ever needed. And what a surprise.

 

[montana outfitters]

20" Benelli Super 90....................2" Smith 357 and Glock 17......don't have a ATTACK wife so much cheaper with guns and no one waking me up in the middle of the night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't know how to post a multiple choice question so I'll limit it to the major choices. My concern is two things.
The first is noise in a bedroom.
The second is do you use a different gun in winter when people are wearing heavier clothes ( like Carharts) vs what people wear in the summer. Heavier clothing is an issue in the northern states.
I believe most people use
38 Special
357 Magnum
44 Special
9mm
40 S&W
45 ACP

Start with these then if you use something else, say so. I've never shot in a house room, but shot on a range with the sides open but a metal roof and that was bad enough.

Thanks for the input.
