I have decided to buy a handgun for self defense, but I could use some help deciding what.
My requirements for a self defense handgun are:
-Must be in a double action revolver (I can't shoot autos worth a crap)
-Must be in a relatively powerful cartridge, one known for good one shot stops, similar in power to .45 acp, .357 or more.
-Must have relatively low recoil, muzzle blast, and flash, to allow for fast follow up shots, similar to .40, .45, etc..
Up until now all I've owned as far as handguns is my grandfather's old k-22 in .22 lr. That said, I've fired thousands and thousands out of it, and am quite accustomed to the double action revolver.
Please help me. I know I've been posting a lot lately but I am trying to make the right decision.
