Hi all,
I'm scheduled along with my wife to take a gun safety course this weekend. We recently moved into our new home which is somewhat secluded and, being out here on our own, we're finding ourselves a bit more concerned with personal safety than before.
I am not a "gun person" and I doubt I ever will be. However, I do need to purchase something that is simple to take care of, reliable, and not over complicated as I want my wife to be able to easily use the weapon if necessary.
Would a revolver be the proper choice for home defense that is easy to understand and use? It seems easier to my layman mind than something with a magazine, anyway.
I'm hoping for specific suggestions on both the firearm and the ammunition. I'm also hoping to not spend TOO much money if possible!
This forum seems to be very active so I trust your suggestions. Thank you all very much for entertaining a "new guy" and answering some stupid questions.
Take care,
Jesse
