Everyone has that image in their head of a zombie hord or half a dozen bad guys coming at them and they just need that 15+1 plus another 15 or 30 in a backup mag, but the reality is that a good five or six shooter is more than sufficient. In a self defense role, I believe that if you can't get it done with 5 or 6, odds are that you didn't bring enough no matter what you're packing. Of course, I'm not adverse to an SBR in the trunk, just in case the zombies do show up.
Zombie horde? No. More than a couple attackers, and hits that don't connect with the CNS? Yes. Because as nice as it may be to think we would perform well under adverse conditions, the truth may not be that way for all of us (or even most of us).
People get caught off guard. People make mistakes under pressure. We would all strive to avoid both these things, but sometimes life just works out the other way. I'd rather have rounds left in my gun, having prevailed, when the shooting stopped.
