Any functional handgun is better than bare hands, but I consider every modern cartridge from 9mm P on up to be a good choice with proper ammo in a reliable gun.
In some cases, a .22 or .22 Mag is a decent choice - for example, an arthritic senior citizen may not be capable of shooting something more potent without pain.
