Urban HD: Whats your plan?

My .40 cal with all 3 mag/clips loaded with 180 gr fed hst's along with my 12g with 5 slugs in the tub and one in the chamber.My wife has a snubbie .357 with 6 rounds in the gun and a extra speed loader and a 410 which is fully loaded with slugs in the tube and 1 in the chamber.Up in the attic i have a small safe with my sig 239 and 2 extra mags and my 686 with 2 exta speed loaders and my .22 with 4 bricks of ammo.

Btw my .40 or my wife's snubbie stays on my hip all the time in or out of the house.

it's better to have a gun on your hip than one to your head.
 
10 Mags :eek:

My Urban setup at night:

One eye open when I sleep :cool:
One hand on my Barlow pocket knife;)
One hand on my "Snubbie" :eek:

Where my hands are when I sleep is something I don't normally mention but since you mentioned yer snubby...
I have a "BIG GUN" but it is Beside my bed and is a 500 Mossberg 20 gauge with 5 in the tube and plenty more shells for it and other firearms in my room should I need to retreat for more...

Hi! I'm Troy McClure! You might remember me from playing such paranoid characters as Howard Hughes, Richard Nixon, and Adolph Hitler!"


:D
 
I have a S&W M&P15 at my bedside with 6 - 30 round magazines. 2 of the magazines are stacked with hollow points with tracers every 5th round.
 
Kimber UCDP loaded, spare mag loaded
HKUSP45C loaded, spare mag loaded
Glock 26 loaded, spare mag loaded
Rifles not loaded but 2 mags each 5.56 and 7.62 NATO loaded for rifles.

Not really expecting trouble, but if it appears to be getting closer, I can ratchet up quickly.
 
Plasma rifle by the bed, fusion bombs set up in the hallway :p On the nightstand is a springfield XD40-4" with 10 Hornady XTP 180gr bullets loaded to full power. Spare clip close to it. Handheld flashlight on the nightstand as well as my cellphone to call the calvalry if the situation permits. Everything else is in the safe. Although I will start keeping my Sig 556 in the room at night. Never know when those zombies are lurking around the corner :D
 
For a while after Katrina we had to sleep with the doors open because of the extreme heat. My 7 month pregnant wife, our 18 month old son and I all slept in the same room with a box fan on low plugged into an inverter in my truck. I slept with a 9mm and a flashlight beside me. One night I heard a noise and stood up by the bed in complete darkness. A deafening exposion lit up the room for an instant. I knocked the gun and the light under the bed and it took me at least 30 seconds to find them. By the time I found them I was so rattled I doubt I could've hit a barn wall from inside the barn. I sheepishly sat by the door for a long while. I finally realized the boom was either a shot charge on a telephone line or a transformer. Either of them exploding at this point was odd since all the lines were down in the entire region.
:oBarney Fife under pressure.
 
At night I keep M4A1 with 10 magazines and a Glock21.

Whoa - that sounds like a serious neighborhood you live in.

All I need where I live is 3 pounds of C4 duct taped to the underside of my mattress, rigged to a detonator that I hold in my hand while I sleep.

Needless to say, I'm a very still sleeper.
 
I only have my carry gun accessible at night. I don’t even keep a flashlight nearby. When I wake up my eyes are adjusted to the dark and I can see pretty well. If a bad guy did happen to choose my house, I don’t want to advertise my location with a beam of light.

Reading some of the responses I sometimes wonder is antis join this site, then make outlandish post about packing huge amounts of firepower just to make gun owners look nuts. I’m not sure where PK is, but it sounds like a very scary place.
 
I live in Pakistan. That is why I keep 10 Mag and M4A1 in my bedroom. Not that I will need to fight off an assualt, but in case if I want to travel outside city urgently. For that matter it is ready with a license and permit to carry it.

Glock 21 is really what I keep bedside just in case. No extra mags. They are in a hoslter.
 
Large dog next to the bed. Pistol in the nightstand drawer. Fighting knife (Randall) next to it. Tomahawk behind the headboard (don't laugh, I'm accurate to five yards with it). I live in a rural area and don't lock my doors, so anything beyond the armament listed above would be not only unnecessary,
but probably flat-out paranoid.
 
My Castle

Well..... first off, I have so frikken many kids in and out of here all day and night I don't think anyone would ever target my house. :o Ya just never know when there's gonna be 15 cars in the drive and folks everywhere! Alarm signs in yard and by doorways, and a sign at the garage doorway letting them know that Lizzy is inside. ;) I have another sign (not yet put up) that I was planning on putting by my shop on other end of property that states "If you can read this.... You are in range".

But.... first line is my little doggie. Lizzy... a petite 120lb Rottweiler. She actually has her own backup named Bella (prolly 13 pound MaltiPoo). :D

I have within arms reach at night a lockbox where I rotate various pistols through, although most nights when I undress I put my carry on the nightstand anyway. Inside my closet is an 870 ready as well. In my office on the backside of the house I have a stash where I keep one as well... usually that is my 642.

I don't anticipate a herd of bad guys and believe that initial contact would send them away. My heart goes out to folks that live in countries/areas where the need requires more drastic preperation. Everyone should be able to feel secure and safe in their homes. Godspeed to you guys!

And for those of us NOT in situations like that.... myself included.... be thankful and don't take it for granted.
