Good question. As far as the gun goes, I would say assume 1 minute of prep time. I had a pocket knife opened up and stuck into my bedframe, so if anyone barged into my room the knife would fly at their face immediately.
...but yeah if you take care to lock a gun, unlocking it would probably take too long in a sudden intrusion. It should be loaded and at your side, but then it also depends how far the front door was from the bedroom. If he kicked it down and ran towards them the only way they could've survived is if the dude sleeps with it in his hand, and that isn't wise, of course. A female cop used to sleep with a 9mm under her pillow. Imagine how scary it was when it went off one night and shot her hand! Loud, painful, and during sleep... That's a heart attack waiting to happen!
