Abstract
An article of furniture, such as a night stand, is configured with firearm access features. A drawer of the article of furniture may include a mount for holding a firearm in the drawer. The mount may be configured to move a firearm from a horizontal storage position to a vertical position when the drawer is opened. The drawer may include a firearm locator feature comprising an arm-locating cut-out in a side of the drawer. The drawer may also include an access feature for selectively maintaining the drawer in a closed position and ejecting the drawer to an extended position, such as upon release of a catch which permits a spring to bias the drawer outwardly. The access features secure the firearm and at the same time permit expedited access to the firearm, including in the dark.
