Default Late Night Home Defense

So I was laying bed the other night just falling a sleep. Kids and wife are asleep and my Jack Russel starts growling and snarling at the front door. This is something he never does. I think my feet hit the floor twice between my bedroom and getting to the front door. My heart was thumping and it turns out it was a wide eyed pizza guy at the wrong house.

I have been thinking to myself I never reached for my gun? My guns are in a safe because I have small children. Would I have time to get the keys? I am not noobi I am Marine Corps trained and have been shooting for years.

So if I am tired and groggy and this was a real emergency this experience has taught me I probably wouldnt go for my gun first. It would be me in my underwear fighting off bad guys or pizza guys LOL.

It is easy to judge or say what we would do in the middle of the after noon when we are wide awake but I wonder what other middle of the night experiences have others had. Would love to hear thoughts or others similar experiences.
