A couple of years ago when she woke me I was holding the m1911 and, had she not waked me and calmed me down, my next automatic action might well have been unconsciously racking the slide, and then .... Who knows?
I also fight and carry on in dreams (bad stuff long ago). My wife bit me once to stop a wrist lock where I was going for the break (all she did was put a hand on me to wake up and calm down). I have jumped out of bed and smacked into the wall trying to bug out, but so far no reaching for a weapon. I too worry about access while asleep / parasomnia. But I am not so concerned at this time to put some sort of lock on my ready weapons.
