What was your 1st night stand gun?

[Jaguar Golf]

Colt 1911 series 80

 

[aarondhgraham]

A very beat-up 1911,,,

A very beat-up Ithaca 1911,,,
My Pop's brother carried it in WW-II and Korea.

I since found his long-lost daughter,,,
And returned the heirloom to her family.

H&R Topper 88 in 12 gauge, cut back to 20" beside the bed.That one was stolen in a burglary 15 years ago...has since been replaced with a Savage 20 gauge cut to 20", along with a gen 3 G29 in a Fobus holster mounted to the headboard.

That would be my first gun...Hum? I was 12 and had a Marlin .22 rifle. Forty Six years later, it's still in the bedroom. Rabbits dread it, squirrels fear it, and tin cans run away from it. Growing up on a rural farm, it's taken more than it's share of varmints and livestock predators. Even put some sausage in the freezer.

First and last..1911

 

[ShaulWolf]

Does my German Shepherd count? He may not travel at 1100 fps, but he's plenty loud and those teeth penetrate surprisingly deep...

Otherwise, a S&W Model 586 .357 magnum with a 6" barrel. After that it became my M&P40, with a shotgun nearby.

 

[Eyelawdoc]

My first nightstand gun was a S&W Model 19 Combat .357 Magnum. 2nd was a S&W Model 59 9mm. There have been several others over the years....

 

[Blade37db]

A Smith & Wesson Model 64 (pre-lock) with a 3 inch barrel.
One of my "I wish I never sold it" guns.

 

[wizrd]

HK USP 40 - I got it shortly after they first came out. Still in the nightstand every night.
Did have to shop for some ten round mags lately - being in NY state, the so-called - "SAFE-ACT" disapproves of the original 13 round magazines.

 

[Carne Frio]

Browning HP 9mm that I got in 1970.
Still have it, but a Glock Model 29 has
replaced it for the nightstand duty.

 

[gb_in_ga]

S&W 686 no dash, 4" barrel. I still have it, it is still in my nightstand.

 

[ritepath]

As a kid a 16ga model 12.


First as an adult p89.

 

[IcecolD1906]

Springfield XD 45, gen 1

[Jimmy10mm]

First revover I ever bought, a S&W model 19-2 blue with a 4" tube. That was back in 1970. Nowadays it is a G-27.

 

[Angelo Demuerte]

Rossi 972 .357 Magnum

 

[Fleabag]

S&W 686 4inch barrel in 1988. Still makes the rounds loaded with .38+P

 

[B.N.Real]

RG 38 special.

The potmetal special.

Still,it would spray lead very accurately at a burgular and me when I fired it,if need be.

My first was also my first handgun, a Taurus 82. It was followed shortly (a few months) by a Ruger KP89 and the two rotated.

Over the years, my rotation has included several autos and revolvers (backed up by a few long guns in the closet), but it has been mostly revolvers for home defense.

Glock G23
