I’m gradually rebuilding my personal armory and having recently found myself with some disposable cash, I’ve decided on a handgun as my next addition.
I’ve owned both at one point or another and I understand the advantages and disadvantages of each.
I like the price of semi autos and while the 9mm isn’t really an exciting round, it is adequate for defense and a cheap way to build fundamentals. If I’m honest, I have an easier time hitting targets with an auto as opposed to a wheel gun. Not sure why that is.
That said, there’s just something right about how a revolver feels in the hand. Also, I am in California and our likely next governor is even more anti gun than the last. Revolvers are lower down the ban list than autos.
Is there anything else I’m not considereding?
Edit: I had meant to post this to the general handgun forum. Perhaps the mods can move it if they’re so inclined.
