Lets see your nightstand gun...

What's your current nightstand gun?

Lets see some pics if you have them.

Here's my current nightstand gun:
HK USP .45 Compact with newly installed night sights and a Hogue grip.

I'm still still trying to figure out why you would have the farewell issue of Rosie, with Richard Gere on the cover. Moreso why you would take a picture of it...

cosmos7 · November 23, 2002, 12:32 AM

Oh, and...

larryw · November 23, 2002, 01:27 AM

Cosmos7: bulk target material.

Here's ours: USP 45C with a UTL.

carry gun is my nightstand gun:

which will be used until I can get to:

or my 870 which breaks any camera pointed at it

For the most part, I've mainly been a "shotgun-by-the-bed" type person, but a few years back I bought a S&W 686 to sit on the nightstand.

This was replaced a little while ago by the Kimber Custom, then again by the higher capacity Taurus PT-99 (I try not to shoot the Kimber much).

The electroless nickel Custom Classic was always loaded with 230gr Fed. Hydrashok while it served. Since then, my favored load evolved to the 230gr Rem. Golden Saber.

I bought this PT99 used a couple years back and have put enough rounds through it to gain complete confidence. It's loaded with G-A 115gr +P GoldDots.

out of my Incredible Shrinking Collection it's going to be a Ruger Bisley Vaquero 4 3/4" 45LC,and a Sig P-232.
i'm aware i'm out of quick reloading guns,and that will be adressed as finances permit. i always think in 3's,so the Cold Steel Recon Scout is also in arms reach.
my ex-GF works with a girl at the vet clinic who has just had a successfull pitbull breeding of some quality Old Family Rednose offshoots. i'm pondering the thought since i love this line.the girl has 3 pitbulls that live happily together;a small feat by todays urban standards.

SgtGunner · November 23, 2002, 09:38 AM

I also use my carry gun as my nightstand gun

rblack · November 23, 2002, 09:57 AM

Most of the time it is the Taurus PT 140 pictured in the center, also my carry gun most of the time.

Beretta M92FS Vertec with M6 Laser/Illuminator

J.R. Bob Dobbs · November 23, 2002, 10:54 AM

On the wall, not the nightstand

NMGlocker · November 23, 2002, 11:07 AM

Walther P99 Military 9mm 15+1 Speer GDHP+p
Surefire 6p
Benchmade blade

Atc1man · November 23, 2002, 12:00 PM

they both sleep, loaded, quite close to the bed.

Ruger Security Six, 2 3/4" .357mag & Taurus Mod85 .38spcl +P
I guess if I get frisky I can do some gun fu with one in each hand....

riddleofsteel · November 23, 2002, 12:02 PM

Here is mine

And yes, I have a BIG nightstand.

LOL

cslinger · November 23, 2002, 12:43 PM

But it could be any of the following.

My main bedstand gun is a SIG 220ST loaded with 9 rounds of Federal 230 Grain Hydrashok.

Course there is Sheslingers SP101 with the .38+P

If I am in the revolver mood there is the Smith 627PC with 8 rounds of .38+P

But all of that is really just to fight my way back to the Remington 870.

SIG 220 and SP101

PC627 and Model 60 Ladysmith

Remington 870 Marine Magnum

That about covers it. I have lots of nightstands.

tex_n_cal · November 23, 2002, 12:53 PM

Colt 1991A1(old rollmark). The .400 Corbon barrel is for fun only, too tempremental for defense use. The .45 ACP Match barrel, though, is 100% reliable.

JeepDriver · November 23, 2002, 03:41 PM

The 686

ChickenHawk · November 23, 2002, 06:20 PM

I thought somebody would beat me to this by now!

Glock 17. Here's a pic in case you've never seen one.

I went with the tranditional style, with a mild finish on the wood... simular to this set

Well, it was an excuse to dust the nightstand:

OK, I'll play.
