I live in a small, three-bedroom, one-level house in a suburb of Kansas City with a wife and a teenage son.
I typically sleep with a loaded, 12-round 9mm pistol and a very bright modified Maglite on my nightstand, and a Remington 870, 18", 3 rounds of 00 buck in the mag, an empty chamber, 5 slugs in a butt sleeve,with a flashlight mounted and it's leaning against the nightstand. I have a Hi-Point 995 carbine I could utilize as well and a 65 lb. boxer that sleeps at the foot of the bed.
I am comfortable with the reliability and function of each firearm. My question is, if I hear a noise at night that needs to be investigated, which firearm should I take with me?
