My granddad lived at home alone the last 10 years of his life. He never wanted a bedside safe
as he keep a fully loaded Colt 1911 under his pillow. May sound unbelievable ... but literally true.
I keep the .45 Springfield 1911 on the bedside table. If you really need a self defense gun in the middle of the night, I don't feel I want to be fumbling around with a safe, in order to access it.
