At some point, I'm going to be purchasing a self defense snubby. Going to be either a .38 or .357, depending on which I can shoot better and easier (probably the .38, but you never know). If I go .38, I know I'll choose the FBI load, unless there's something better out there nowadays. In .357 I have no idea what load to carry. These modular apartments only have walls and doors a few inches thick, so JHP or LSWCHP naturally.
Due to my disability, I'm not ambidextrous. My right hand is lacking fine motor control, which is why I'm pulling away from a semi. Otherwise I'd carry a no frills government length 1911. I want something solid I can shoot one handed. Preferably steel construction. I don't need fancy frills like a laser pointer. Although I would like glow sights. My main concerns at this point are barrel length and specific load. I want six rounds, just in case. Five just feels a little uneasy. My old man keeps talking about a .22 derringer...only two rounds of .22 for a home invasion, is he crazy?
Additional thoughts: my little place has a flimsy lock and a deadbolt. I felt secure with it at first, but my little brother says that they aren't as strong as they seem. I wanted to look into buying and putting in a new one, or at least an additional one. And I was looking at these:http://www.medeco.com/en/site/medeco/products/
Are they any good; this company, their products?
