Ok, I'm starting to get comfortable enough with the gun I purchased to EDC (M&P Shield 9) to actually begin carrying it. I also have an M&P 9 compact that I am considering possibly using as a night stand gun. The compact has a rail that I could mount a light on and use it if needed in the middle of the night.
Currently the Shield is my night stand gun and the compact is in the safe, but eventually the plan is to carry the Shield and leave the compact in the night stand...but at night when I take the Shield off it will just go on the nightstand with my phone, knife, etc...
So, guys with a different gun for EDC and nightstand, what do you do with your EDC when you take it off at night? Is there a real advantage to having 2 separate guns for EDC and nightstand if your EDC just sits on the nightstand while you sleep anyway?
