I do keep weapons in the bedroom. I have a 1965 built 870 Remington 12 bore loaded with 4 rounds of buckshot, and a SAA in .45 Colt that fires a 255grain hard lead at 900FPS. Both are on a "high rack" that the kid can't reach without a ladder when I'm in the house. Or in the safe when I'm not. In order to get to my room or the kids, an intruder would have to turn a right angle into a fourteen foot long hallway that is back lit. I have carried both weapons or ones just like them since childhood and can do the manual of arms in my sleep for both. Weapons don't make you an effective killer. Training, planning and nerve do.---Ray
Ray, I like you have a old Stevens next to the bed with 4 rounds of buckshot, that's enough to get me to the safe..... Oh, and Miss K, nice Metallica reference... ;)

I love it. Wife however;.......Ray
Only issue I see is that the headboard could be a bit risky in earthquake areas...........'bonk'.

Love the idea but I'm not sure how practical it is. Where the heck is my reading light? With a few modifications it would be great.
