>>I keep my 45 under my pillow, loaded with hollow points. I pity the fool. My first shot is almost always dead on. Now I just need my concealed carry permit.<<
I'm curious. My Grandmother told me that my Grandfather (Southern Baptist Preacher) slept with a pistol under his pillow. And I've never understood... She didn't think it was odd.
Wouldn't by the bed or at the head of the bed be just as good without all the risk? Don't you move around at night or fluff your pillow?
Well, it's not literally under my pillow. I have a king sized bed and it sits in the middle between the pillows. The only other place I could put it within reach is on my nightstand, but I worry that somehow I'd grab it when I was looking for the phone. Since the only thing in the middle of my bed is the gun, I don't have to worry about that.
