+1. Or a sling if your bump in the night gun is a rifle / shotgunYears ago this subject came up somewhere and shows its a good idea to keep a holster with the bedstand gun for investigating bumps in the night.
I vote for a rifle and sling. It's the whole adage of "a pistol is what you carry when you are not planning on having a gun fight, a rifle is what you carry when you are." "Bump in the night" might as well be planning on it as far as I am concerned.+1. Or a sling if your bump in the night gun is a rifle / shotgun
Easier to carry naked, too.I vote for a rifle and sling. It's the whole adage of "a pistol is what you carry when you are not planning on having a gun fight, a rifle is what you carry when you are." "Bump in the night" might as well be planning on it as far as I am concerned.
I'm all in favor of imitating the ancient Celts and running right at the enemy naked and armed. Back then it would have been a terrifying sight - a hoard of nude, hairy, bearded, wild-eyed warriors waving swords and axes as they charge the invaders. Now imaging a nude, hairy, bearded, wild-eyed dude charging down the hall at you with an AR and a bandolier of spare mags. Any home invader would take one look and be like...Easier to carry naked, too.
Soooo...about that nude hairy bearded wild eye dude.....I'm all in favor of imitating the ancient Celts and running right at the enemy naked and armed.

Epic! I can imagine them from that day forward...Soooo...about that nude hairy bearded wild eye dude.....
There I was ...awakened by a ruckus going on in the kitchen area around 0-Dark thirty one morning......
I get up out of bed to investigate the noise....
Noise as in lots thumps...scramblings...crashes....bumps ...etc....
Not really knowing what I am walking into...I pause and grab my one of my spears I keep in my library .
( Doesn't everyone keep a spear or two in their library ? )
I step around and into the kitchen...turning the light as I do so....
I see immediately what is causing all the fuss....
Our little black cat , Sally Mae , who was quite the hunter , brought in one of her outside toys...
A large , angry at being bitten and brought inside.... rat.
Sally and I form our battle plans....while she goes in for a frontal attack...
I'll flank the rat beastie....and stick 'em with my spear.....
All goes well and Mr. Rat is skewered on my spear...Sally Mae gives me a loud Meow by way of saying :
"Good Job"...or "Hey Gimme my toy back"...whatever.
At this point I get the feeling of being watched....
I turn and look out the window of our French style doors....
And see out new neighbors coming home and looking in on a very naked Andy , armed with a spear...which has a impaled rat...and a angry pu.....err...cat at his feet.
An epic scene to be sure , if painted by Frank Frazetta....
Not so epic as seen by new neighbors wondering WTF kind of place have we moved into..

Hey now, these are as good as cops are going to get and they won't ever be this good again.The video is an accurate, but disgusting, exemplar of the sub-par flotsam and jetsam being hired as cops.
What kind of light do you have mounted to your speed? Surefire or Stream light? Do you have the laser that goes with it?Soooo...about that nude hairy bearded wild eye dude.....

What light from yonder spear breaks....What kind of light do you have mounted to your speed? Surefire or Stream light? Do you have the laser that goes with it?
