QUICK! Grab Your Nearest Gun

At the moment it's a G-22 in a Safariland SS III.

Tonight when I go to sleep it'll be a 4" Redhawk in .45 Colt loaded with 335gr hardcast......... I worry more about furry creatures and fighting my way to a shotgun at home since i have a smokehouse full of sockeyes. :D
 
Right back pocket keltec pf9, in the drawer of my computer table ruger service 6 loaded with .357 gold dots on top of 15.5gr H110.
 
My closest gun is a Mossberg 500 12ga loaded with 000 buckshot. A SKS is also close by with a stripper clip ready to go.

My nearest handgun is a S&W 637 or a Ruger LCP.
 
My ugly duck car gun. (it's not a stay in the car all the time car gun, just the gun that goes when I know it has to stay in the car...)

It's a crime-bill era Ruger P95-D. They don't get a whole heckuva lot uglier. Black, kinda plum colored on the slide. Bicycle innertube for a rubber "grip" because the original grip on these older P-95's are slicker as they come than if it would have been carved from a bar of soap and carried in the shower.

It's got a Mec-Gar 17 rounder in it, not the silly plastic-base Ruger crime-bill 10-rounder.

The mag is stuffed with Hornady Critical Defense.
 
I went out and shot through a few cylinders of .22wmr around dusk. I'm trying to get the hang of "combat focus" shooting. It is different than how I was trained.

So, I've got my freshly cleaned Heritage Rough Rider sitting less than three feet away, again.

Well, my computer is just next to my safe, but the safe is closed.
Sitting in a drawer in the computer desk is is my freshly cleaned Sig P-6 9mm.
It's stoked with Federal 9BP hollow points.
 
The closest gun I have "at hand" is a Magnum Research Desert Eagle 1911G...on the end table next to the chair I'm sitting in. But, it's unloaded. I got it out of the safe in preparation for a possible trip to the range tomorrow.

The closest loaded gun is a 1992 vintage Taurus Model 85 .38 snub that's tucked under a pillow in my bedroom. It's loaded with PMC Starfire +P 125 grain JHP's.
 
The question is open though this is the handgun forum. To keep in context with the forum I will first state that I do not use a handgun for SD as I do not want any of them rotting in the evidence locker. Therefore, I reach for the Mossberg 500 with 00 and slugs.
