My EDC G26 is the most familiar, and chosen because of its simplicity. Both are assets in a nightstand pistol, when I reasoned that I might be a bit foggy when I need it. So it does double duty.

A Beretta 92 is also readily accessible, but in a late-night emergency the first rounds are going to come out of the G26.

I am also in the habit of laying out pistol, spare mag, and flashlight, right to left in order, in the nightstand drawer, whether at home or in a hotel room, just so that everything is automatic if I need it.
