[QUOTE="POKE1911, post: 2921757, member: 24536"] Great Advice. I agree that a well maintained modern semi is very reliable. The ability to have 17 rounds in a 9mm is a huge advantage over a revolver as it carries much more ammo, reloading -for the average person- is much quicker as well. 17 should be plenty for most home defense situations. Also if it has a rail you have the ability to attach a light. As JJ said you don't need a thumb safety and just keep one in chamber. That being said you should think of the best place you want to keep it. Night stand, closet, dresser, desk etc. Then find a quick access gun safe that will work with that configuration. They have a ton of options out there so there is one that works for most setups. You could do one with a code or thumbprint. Most are no bigger than a shoebox. I mounted one to the inside of my nightstand. Safe, secure, and quick to get too. When I buy a new desk I'm going to put one in there too. [/QUOTE]
