I'm currently in the market for my first handgun. I need to know which brands are worth buying. I was planning on sticking to S&W or Ruger, but my brother-in-law who has much more experience with firearms than me says go with a Taurus or something less expensive. He claims there isn't much difference. I don't really believe him, and would rather spend a little extra money and get something quality that's going to last, so I figured I'd ask people who have more experience than him.
I'm planning on buying a .357 6" barrel, I'm not very good with a handgun as I haven't shot them much. This will be a gun for me to learn the basics of shooting a handgun. I would eventually like to get into competitive shooting as well. Of course this will also be for home defense. It won't be for CC, once I get better at shooting I'll find a different gun for that.
So what I need to know, which brands are worth even looking at? Any supporting information, articles, etc. would be appreciated.
Thanks
