Was wondering what everyone's go to gun is at night. Mine is a Taurus Judge, and a Mossberg 12 guage pump. Both in the bedroom.
I live in the city, so leave the rifles and I have two to use in case things really go bad , a 38/357 Rossi 16 inch barrel carbine, and a Henry 45-70 for if things get really big

Go to gun in he middle of the night?

"no name" Chinese made 12 ga SxS coach gun. Decades old now. Works reliably and I also have a large and very LOUD dog who doesn't like strangers 2 or 4 legged. I live miles out of town, and several hundred yards away from the closest neighbor.

(there will probably be a Colt .38 in my pocket as well, as "backup)

I carry a beretta 92fs, or it’s within reach.
I keep some ARs around the house when I’m home also…

But,
I have a Great Pyrenees that screens my visitors at night, haha… I have plenty of time to select a gun leisurely.

Sears 12 gage SxS, with 4 more on the shoulder stock. I just shoot two into the air just like Slo' Joe told me to do.

Whatever I’ve been carrying is usually in the nightstand with a Mossberg 500 and an AR-15 in the closet.

A 20 inch barrel 12 gauge pump in the bedroom. A 1911 on top of my computer tower less that two feet away from my hand.

Great minds think alike. I keep a Judge on the nightstand...

And either a Shockwave or this 500 in the corner...

I'm guessing you mean for self protection. I haven't carried for decades.
I used to keep a Montgomery Ward 20ga loaded with goose shot by the bed. Don't anymore.
IMHO firearms for self defense are mostly a fashion choice and thank goodness for that.

The other day, a pack of coyotes had a deer cornered just inside the forest line near my house and was making one heck of a commotion…
Finally I had enough, so I put on my snake boots, chose a mossberg and emptied it into to the creek bank behind my house and everyone decided to go home… that’s the most I’ve needed a gun in a while lol, turned out to be a quiet afternoon

Charter Bulldog 44 Special in the night stand, AR-15 carbine in the bedroom closet. There is also a 2 1/2 inch S&W Model 66 between the mattresses.
