This little attention getter, 50AE loaded with 7) 350 gr HP's. No neighbors close enough to worry about over penetration.

Nah, just joking. Just keep two snub nose revolvers, one on either side of the bed. S&W 60 38 spl and Charter Arms 32 mag.
 
Right now I am using the Glock21SF with Trijicon Night Sights With a Fully Loaded 13 Round Magazine with 230 gr GoldDots.

I have another 13 round Magazine with Speer Lawman 230Fmj's in my closet.

The 21sf has been reliable with about 200 rounds at the range and it is pretty good shooter for me.
 
I use my XD9 to fight my way to my 12ga, 18.5" barrel pump loaded with 000 buck. When I have that in my hands then I am good to go.
 
On top of the fridge I have a G19 with 3 mags.....My wife and I have pistols on each side of our bed. She keeps a baby eagle .40 and I have my Kimber Crimson Carry with 3 mags.
 
CZ 75B DA/SA 9mm Luger
14 rds in mag of
Double Tap +P 147 gr. Gold Dot JHP @ 1,120 FPS

uber reliable, accurate fits my hand and DA first shot in
a dark situation will be deliberate not adrenelin filled oops.

By the bed: Benelli M4 Super 90....000 buck in the tube and slug/000 combo on the carrier.
 
Which auto? Well, if I have to I'll run over baddies in my Audi, even though it might wreck my house. Trouble is, I can't keep it in my bedroom.
:D

But seriously I use my Smith and Wesson 5906 for home defense.
 
A Glock 27, Glock 22, and Remington 870 18" with 00buck. All in quick access locations in areas of the house most frequented.

added to complete the question, because I am very confident with them and train often.

I truly believe that if someone breaks into my house, I'll be killed or robbed not because I was unarmed but because I couldn't choose what to use like my girlfriend does when she can't decide on what shoes to wear with what purse.

old double barrel Ithaca 12ga under bed and Mossberg 500 in closet 10' from bed.....
 
Hi Power cocked and locked.

Snubby in reserve.

Glock 22 on the other side of the bed with another snubby in reserve.
 
As it sits right now.

My safe has all three of my carry guns in it. I also have a small locked closet that I keep my Mossberg in. My first option would be the shotgun. Everyone sleeps up stairs. So I would just need to keep them from coming up. 00 buck does a good job of that.

My auto is a Baby Desert Eagle w/Trijicon NS. I shoot the best with it and I have the NS on it so its the first thing I would grab.

Second would be to hand the CZ Rami to my wife.
 
XDM 45 with streamlight TLR-2, loaded with Federal HST. She lays in wait in the top draw of my night table, I hope paper is the only thing I will ever use it on.
