My weapons are budget conscious reliable guns for personal/home defense.
I currently have a taurus 66 - 7 shot, 357 magnum.
a Hi Point 995 carbine 9mm with ATI stock, collapsing forend grip, bsa red dot and a light with pressure switch.
And i have what i plan to make my ccw, an armscor 206 38 special colt detective clone arriving to my ffl tomorrow or thursday.
I plan on having children soon, and 3 guns is my compromise with my wife. A CCW pocket carry revolver, a HD pistol and a HD carbine.
My first purchase was the taurus 66. I originally bought a 357 magnum because of its reputation as among the best manstoppers among pistol calibers, and because of its simplicity and reliability and being new to guns, but I keep it loaded with 38sp+p out of concern for hearing damage/muzzle flash indoors.
I have been thinking if i am shooting 38 special out of the magnum gun, and it is purely a home (maybe truck occassionally) gun, that i could be better served with a higher capacity 9mm?
Ruger P95DC really peaked my interest, especially given its close in price to the value of my taurus. It would be my first semi-auto handgun if i do decide to get rid of the taurus and go with the ruger.
I just wanted to get some feedback on this decision and see what people think.
I am left handed if that matters?
