No light on your pistol? Reach 2S fits 160+ handguns at $199 while stock lasts.

A box safe makes you choose between the light and the lock.

Most bedside gun safes are boxes, and a box has no room for a weapon light. Reach Tactical is a holster with a lock. The pistol sits in it the way it sits on your belt, light mounted, red dot on. Touch the sensor and it releases. Push it back down and it locks.

Because the gun sits exposed by the bed, your hand closes on the grip before the lock opens. There is no lid to wait for and no cavity to reach into in the dark.

Fit depends on your light, not your pistol.

Both holsters come in the box, so a new light does not mean a new safe. Check your light below.

Standard light holster

Streamlight TLR-1 HL and TLR-1 HL-X. Surefire X300 Ultra, both the X300U-A and the X300U-B. It is built into the safe.

Small light adapter

Streamlight TLR-7 X, TLR-7 X Sub, TLR-7 HL-X, TLR-3 X and TLR-8 X. Surefire XC3. It seats inside the standard holster and comes pre-assembled.

Red dots, suppressors and grip lasers fit. Trigger guard lasers do not, and of the light and laser combos only the TLR-8 X does. Running a Glock? See the Glock safe for weapon lights.

A finger on the Reach Tactical fingerprint sensor with the green status lights lit

Three ways in

Your fingerprint or thumbprint, a 4-button keypad code of 4 to 8 presses, or the key. It stores up to 10 prints, and it learns more of yours each time you open it. Use the fingerprint, the keypad or both.

Mounts beside the bed

Two screws hold it to the side of a nightstand, and it works in any orientation, on any flat, solid surface: a desk or a closet wall too. The pistol stays where your hand goes in the dark.

Questions before you order.

My pistol has a red dot. Will it fit?
Slide-mounted red dots fit. So do suppressors and grip lasers. Trigger guard lasers do not, and of the light and laser combos only the Streamlight TLR-8 X fits, in the small light adapter.
My pistol has no light.
Reach Tactical needs a weapon-mounted light, because the holster fits the light. For a pistol without one, Reach 2S fits 160+ handgun models with a holster insert made for yours, while stock lasts. Find your handgun on the Reach 2S fit list.
Is it a thumbprint gun safe or a fingerprint gun safe?
Both. Any finger can be registered, up to 10 prints. The user guide suggests the thumb for right-handed owners, since it lands on the sensor as your hand closes on the grip, and the index finger for left-handed owners. The 4-button keypad and the key work alongside them, or instead of them.
How does it mount to a nightstand?
Two screws, included with a long driver bit, hold it to the side of a nightstand, a desk or a closet wall. It works in any orientation on any flat, solid surface. The charging cable is 5 feet long, so plan for an outlet or a power bank.
What if the battery runs down?
The lock holds without power, a low battery beeps and flashes yellow about a day before it runs out, and the two backup keys open it with no power at all. A charge lasts 8 to 10 months and a full charge takes up to 4 hours over USB-C.
When does it ship, and can I return it?
Early Black Friday ends Tuesday. Then $319. Ships in two weeks. Preorders are being fulfilled. You have 30 days from the ship date to return it, with a prepaid return label, and a 1 year limited warranty.
