My bedside gun is equipped with a light, is substantially larger than what I carry when going to town or the city, and weighs a small ton. For those reasons, I carry something else, depending on what activities are on the docket for the day.
The bedside gun, if you're interested, is a Sig P226 Mk25 with a supplementary .40 S&W slide and barrel installed along with a TLR 1 light on the rail.
My carry pieces vary from a Smith M69, to a Sig P225A1, to a Colt .22 LR Diamondback depending on the day's work schedule and my wardrobe choices. I've also been known to carry a Sig P290, Smith M637 or M60, or a Smith .380 Bodyguard depending on the day.
YMMV, Rod
