From JohnH1963:
Quote:
I was thinking of a low probability, high risk scenario. What if you had a bad dream, there was some kind of event in the house like a branch brushing up against the outside wall and half-asleep you reach for the pistol? You grab the pistol and maybe set it off?
There are many things that can happen when sleeping. I just think a little distance and in an enclosed latched case (i.e. cigar case) would be a good safety measure to prevent any accidents.

Excellent point. I saw something on Personal Defense Television in which the speaker strongly recommended that the gun be kept
away from the bed so the person has to
get up and wake up before grabbing it. I follow that advice.
It's not just a matter of dreams. There's the issue of positive identification of just who that is moving around in the house.
