My wife thinks I'm crazy because I am always armed. Most of the time, I carry my PF9 in a DeSantis pocket holster. I just had back surgery, so I'm off work for a month. As I type this, my 9 is sitting about a foot from me on the coffee table. Next to my bed, I keep my XD40SC in a cheap holster on the night stand, with an extra mag next to it. Propped up against the wall next to the night stand is my Mossberg 500 (home made tactical version) with 6 in the belly and one in the chamber, all 00 buck. It has a 6 position collapsible stock with a pistol grip, and a fore grip on the pump, with an incredibly bright flashlight with pressure switch mounted on the fore grip. I also put some fiber optic sights on it, since I cut the barrel down to about 19". In the room next door to my bedroom is my gun safe with my AR, loaded with a round in the chamber, a .357 mag loaded, along with my wife's Walther PK380 (also loaded) and about 7 magazines for the AR loaded. I dont have kids, so I dont have to worry about leaving my guns out. When I'm healthy and working, the 9mm stays in the center console of my truck, and I carry my .40 around the house. I have a factory Springfield left handed paddle holster that is easy to throw on, so it makes carrying the XD at home easy. I keep trying to tell her I'm not paranoid, just prepared. I dont wish to shoot anyone, but I'm not prepared to give in to someone who is not supposed to be here, and right now, I'm in no condition to fight.
