Poll: Do you keep more than 1 loaded gun in the bedroom?

[brigadier]

I keep a 9mm Beretta 92FS on top of my computer tower which dubs as my night stand. I also keep a 10mm Beretta M-96FS Brigadier Inox tucked in to a little crease in the mattress which allows it to stay clean, but easily be accessible if by some miracle, a robber makes it to the 9mm before me. I also sometimes keep a CZ-52 just in front of the head board and a .44 Magnum Desert Eagle in a cabinet above my bed though that just so happens to be the place where I keep it. I keep all of my guns locked but un chambered. This minimizes the potential for accidents and makes it so that if a robber gets to the gun, he will have to figure out that it's chambered giving me time to have the 10mm ready. Since the 10mm is in a very close area but out of plain sight, a robber is not going to even know there's another gun around until he's staring down the barrel of it. That's the beauty. I can reach for it without letting him know that I'm awake! That's in the worst case scenario. It's next to impossible to break in to my house without the first thing you see being the business end of the 9mm.

2 pistols,

XD 45 for me, 357 rev for the wife

The Beretta 92FS and M9 are identical, yes? For all intents and purposes?

Because I carry an M9 Beretta [As in it actually says U.S. 9mm M9-Beretta, on the side], and I don't know why so few others carry an actual M9, they seem to prefer the 92FS, what's the difference?

I have no loaded weapons near me at night but have a shotgun in the safe. My wife does not like guns and this is the best middle ground we can come up with. Granted, I am fortunate enough to live in a very low crime area so I do sleep good at night.

 

[3 gun]

ALL my guns are loaded. I don't means in the 4 rules "loaded" either. My daily ccw pistols stay loaded and holstered when I take them off. I use 4 depending on where the day will take me. The pistols, rifles and shotguns in the safe are loaded "cruiser ready". I live my sig line...an unloaded (firearm) pistol is a paperweight.

 

[the naked prophet]

All my guns are loaded. All handguns (besides a couple of .22 plinkers) are loaded with one in the chamber, and in a holster, ready for carry. All my rifles and shotguns (again, besides a couple of .22 plinkers and clay shotguns) are full mag with empty chamber. They all live in the safe, which, due to space limitations, lives by my bed. So, yeah, I keep several loaded firearms by my bed!

Only four are accessible from bed - the shotgun, my CCW and backup which I keep on the nightstand, and my wife's CCW which she keeps on her nightstand.

ALL OF THEM

 

[Rokyudai]

'Mini Glock' .40SW in the bedroom

 

[NG VI]

S&W Model 28 in the closet and the USP in reach

 

[BigBadJohn]

I have a mossy500 with light in the closet, ready for goblins.

 

[Feanaro]

Two revolver and a shotgun, all fully loaded. A rifle in condition three. A firearm without ammunition is a club.

 

[ghettofab]

1 Maverick 88 12 ga. 3rds. of 3" magnum 00buck, 1 chopped romanian sks 30 rds. 125 gr. sp and whatever pistol I'm carrying at the time. If all else fails, I'll skewer them with my 91/30's bayonet, hopefully pinning them to the wall, and buying me time to escape.

 

[ClarkEMyers]

All my guns are always loaded but not necessarily accessible before I wake up. AND I have flashlights and accessories.

 

[athlon64]

Shotgun with sling and handgun in belt rig.

 

[MPGatorVet]

.38 snubbie on the nightstand next to me. 1911 and S&W 9mm in the fingertip keypad safe under the wife's side of the bed. 115# Rhodesian Ridgeback on the floor at the foot of the bed. All loaded and ready for "guests".

 

[us185damiani]

I keep my Springfield 1911 GI "Cocked and locked" my Ruger Super blackhawk .357 loaded and ready and my Bryco/Jennings Saturday nite Special .380 with a loaded clip in place at the ready.

 

[jdorian]

Not loaded, but the ammo is in a mag right next to them. All it takes is a second and they are loaded. Its much safer that way and no worries if I just grab the guns to head to the range.

 

[Constantine-p89]

A gun without bullets is like a toy without batteries

 

[Educated Hillbilly]

2 pistols a Sig 228 for the wife Sig GSR for myself. Also 2 long guns. Remington 870 and an AR-15. Wife and I also both have Surefire flashlights ready as well.

 

[1200 meters]

Ruger P97C in matress at night and within reach during the day (Loaded). Mossberg in closet with ammo on stock. Quigley standing in the corner but no rounds around. To damn big to clear rooms with.

 

[MHBushmaster]

1911 on the bed stand as a backup to one of my AR15's loaded with 30rds 75gr Hornady handloads. I also have a surefire 6P for muzzle illumination.
No holster on bedstand.

 

[Darthbauer]

AR-15 with 25 JHP rounds in a 30 round mag, Remington 870 12g. and a Sig P226. I feel sorry for someone stupid enough to break into my house.

 

[bhurlebaus]

I keep a p95dc, one extra mag and a Tacstar flashlight in my night stand. In the other bedroom which is more our safe room I have a 1911, extra mag, flashlight, and a Mossberg 835.

 

[TCB in TN]

I have a pair of handguns, my snubbie 38spcl CC pc, and my PT92 15+1 9mm, I also have a pistol grip 18 1/2 inch mossy 500, all for intruders, and as we live in the country and have animals I also keep a loaded Ruger 10/22 and my BLR 81 .308 loaded in case of varmits who would want to both my animals. The 10/22 for dispatching skunks, possums, and other light fare, and the .308 for fox, roving dogs, or coyotes who might decide to bother my live stock.
