"Sleeping with a firearm

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Condition 1 in a shoulder holster strapped to your body. Learn to get over the discomfort if you feel the need to sleep with a locked and loaded weapon. After wearing it long enough when you go beddyby you will know its exact location like you know the position of your hand or any other part of your body. A big plus reaching for it out of a sound sleep. By the time you have it in your mit you should also be locked and loaded."

I would like to hear more about this. In my situation and the layout of my home this is the only solution which feels safe to me. I am a total newbie though, and want to hear as much about this solution as possible.

I also unfortunately know that sometimes, circumstances do merit measures that might seem extreme to someone who isn't being hunted.
