I chose the Glock 21 for a few reasons, it costs about half what the others cost to replace, absolute proven reliability, 13+1 capacity, simplicity meaning no manual safety to disengage, and lastly, consistent trigger with just enough pull weight and travel for safer action when awakened. Other than home defense, my personal choice is a revolver.
 
I've got a Glock 21 (with one in the chamber) in my nightstand in an inexspensive nylon iwb holster (I'd never CC it with that holster, but I like it to keep the trigger guard covered if I'm going to be groping around in the dark for the gun). Right next to the gun is a spare mag, a powerful LED tactical flashlight (I don't like gun mounted lights), ear and eye protection (if I have time I'll use 'em) and my cell phone (to call 911).
 
My current HD nightstand gun is a Glock 21 SF.

Ammunition is Speer Gold Dot 230gr, though I also have Federal HST 230gr +P.
 
Taurus PT99 AF 9mm; 10 round mag (MA frowns on more!) Equipped with a laser sight so I can shoot accurately "from the hip" if necessary (and yes, I practice that, a lot.) Loaded with Glaser safety rounds to minimize wall penetration.

I would like to politely suggest loading it with a round that can reliably stop an attacker.
