I have two six-shooters:
GP100 loaded with Hornady Critical Defense .357 in an unlocked gun case under my side of the bed, with 3 additional Hornady loaded speedloaders and 50 extra rounds of 158 gr .357s.
6 shot 20ga in the closet with a case (250 rounds) of buckshot.
Not that I should ever need that much ammo, but I have it in the house anyway, so why not.

My 5 shooter Sp101 357 3" barrel is right next to me on the bottom of the night stand, backed up with my 12ga shotgun under the bed.

I took my Old Army out yesterday and put 45 rounds of Cowboy ,45 LC, and other than filling the house with smoke, I think that it can handle the job of dropping an invader.

Right now my P95 sits on the night stand, but soon it will be a GP100 sitting there waiting for some BG to come rolling in...then he will have me pointing a 357 at him and my wife brandishing the 9mm with the barrel pointing in his direction.

Got my FNX-40 in my Crossbreed Ohai Bedside Backup each night. Put it back in the pistol safe every morning before heading off to work. Plus have the Mossberg 12-guage pump right beside the bed also.

I keep all my guns handy at night...and during the day. I have not kids living with me and my wife is a great shot. I am not a collector and can use every weapon I have. So, considering that the best weapon one can have it the weapon he has when he needs it, why not keep them all available?

Mine is a five-shooter too. A Stainless Model 36 Chief's Special in .38 Special. I would probably use my Model 10 with the 2in. barrel, but this is the humid deep south and the latter revolver is blued. I also keep a Mossberg Model 500 with the 18in barrel loaded with 00 Buck about two feet away.

Keep them loaded and handy. When kids are coming, lock them up.
