One - the only one I need - my trusty 1911. The .38 is on the nightstand next to the bed.

Have a .380ACP, Mossberg 12Ga, and AK-47 all at arms length. Now if I wanted to take 10 steps I have a closet full.

My Mossberg 12 gauge is 4 foot away. Lived in the house for 30 years and have never needed a weapon yet but you never know.

My S&W 342 is in my pocket and being in my office at the computer, I have my Berretta Nano, Kel-Tec PF-9 and Glock-30SF in, on and around my desk within arms reach. Im not paranoid, just prepared.
