There's a night sighted Glock 19 (9mm) next to the bed. A SCCY 9mm in the living room and a night sighted SIG P320 fullsize .45ACP near the front door.
That said, I am like Jeff and recommend a revolver for a tyro's home defense since the manual of arms is as simple as pick up, point, press trigger. No safety to fumble with, no slide to rack, no worries about whether there's a round in the chamber because pressing the trigger brings a a fresh cartridge to bear every time.
Buy either a Ruger or a Smith and Wesson that fits your hand and of at least .38 caliber.
Then practice, practice practice.
