What caliber do you use for your night stand gun?

[UtahHunting]

I voted 45ACP since my 1911 is usually close when I sleep. However the 12ga is not far either.

 

[IMightBeWrong]

I have 3 guns in the nightstand, but I would reach for the 9mm one first. Its my P-01 and I am more comfortable with it than anything I have right now.

 

[CWKahrFan]

Wow... .45 still ahead in the survey... Cool...

 

[ronto]

Depending on the circumstances, it's a 357 revolver in the night stand or 12ga pump on the wall rack next to the bed...The intruder will not be happy with either one.

nightstand

Have a 12 ga Ithaca pump with pistol grip and 18 inch barrel mounted (behind the nightstand)

 

[Badkarma 1]

Primary is an Ithaca 37 loaded with #5 high brass. Secondary is a S&W 5946, it's heavy so recoil is light, it's a DAO so there's not a lot of buttons or switches to figure out, and everybody inside knows how to run it!
And just in case I hafta reach out and touch somebody, there's a .30 cal. M-1 Carbine backing up everything else! And just between you and me, it might replace the 12 gauge!

 

[DonutGuy]

.45GAP Glock 39

 

[BIG P]

GLOCK 21 Lets me sleep good.

 

[blkft1]

[WESHOOT2]

I was gonna vote

But it wouldn't let me select all of them I keep near my bed.

I hate reloading in real life....ay?

 

[qcsmitty]

I should get a 45 ACP, but....

20 gauge Rem 870 w/ tactical 6 round magazine and either my SP101 DAO snubbie or LCR 38+P loaded with 135 grain subsonic Speer or Win PDX1 rounds. My cat :barf: is de-clawed so I'm on my own.

 

[jglsprings]

Your are missing 45 Colt.

And you should allow more than one choice. My Glock shows up for sleep overs sometime as well.

 

[biohazurd]

Well i normally I have 2 guns on one night stand and one on the other. In calibers .45, 9mm, and .357 Mag... BOOM!

 

[KyJim]

I have a .357 magnum (SW Model 65) as my bedside gun. I like a revolver because of its simplicity at 3:00 a.m. in the morning. I wouldn't mind .38 spl +P but want the extra power of the magnum if someone is in my home.

I do have a 12 gauge nearby.

 

[steeps09]

- 4th Gen G22 in the nightstand with a full clip and two spares.
- Mossberg 12 gauge shotgun with 00 buck behind the door.
- Remington 700 ADL 22-250 in closet for long shots. (Usually coyotes)
- 8mm Mauser cased in the closet if it turns into a war

 

[jersey_emt]

S&W Model 59 (first-generation semi-automatic). 14+1 rounds of 9x19mm Speer Gold Dot 147-grain.

 

[bcrash15]

I have a Model 65 loaded with .38sp +P hollow points. I have two speed loaders next to the gun, one with more +P, the other with .357 for any persistent problems.

 

[t45]

357mag but if I have a few extra seconds its a 12ga w/00buck
