I was inspired by this thread:
http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=1&f=5&t=809807 Who here carries in bed? I don't mean gun near by, but actually on your person, the same as you carry everyday. I admit to doing it a time, or two.

Why not just keep it on your night stand. I cant see how it woud be quiker. I could understand in a tent and have a gun in your sleepng bag if your in bear country but in a residence it seems overkill. Also as much as my wife is okay with guns I wouuld have a hard time with her being okay with me sleepng with a gun in the bed with us. ETA: Edit for Spelling |

Not even within arms reach. Last thing I need to do is buzz a round through a wall (or worse) on account of a weird dream. Middle of the night the phone rings. I barely wake up, reach over the girlfriend and pull a tissue out of the Kleenex box, hold it to my ear and say "Hello?" ... Yeah. That made me realize anything can happen when one isn't "really" awake, so I'm a bit careful of where I place a handgun when it is sleepy-time. |
had the AR next to me when the power was out for a couple of hours a few nights ago. i don't trust the hillbilies that have been breaking into cars in my neighborhood. my dogs stoppped them from getting in my car. they went 6 houses down and broke the windows in my kid's babysitters car
sleep n carry, nope just right nest to me |

I slept with a 1911 before next to me, on accident. There's a nightstand thing directly next to the bed, no need to carry on person.
Guy I knew (barely, and years ago) accidently shot and killed himself by sleeping with a Glock under his pillow. Obit says "it went off"
