I have a short barreled cylinder bore 12 gauge with #4 buckshot next to the night stand. I don't know if it's the best solution but it makes me feel mighty comfortable inside my house where the distances are short. And if 5 rounds of 12 ga. doesn't end it I have a model 58 in 41 magnum on the nightstand for back up.

Might want to move that model 58 from ON the nightstand to IN the nightstand, as in OUT OF SIGHT.
If someone gets inside your house while you are asleep and gets near that gun, they could kill you in your sleep with it.
It is almost always a bad idea to have a loaded gun in the house in plain sight unless unless you can be absolutely sure no unauthorized person can get their hands on it.
Think about it.
