Target shooting is one thing... a high pressure defensive situation is totally different.
Watch this video, or at least read the statistics on police shootings in the intro. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qa-joxi63xs
I'm a big fan of revolvers for carry guns, because of their simplicity and durability. However, more rounds is never a bad idea.
Agreed.
A tour in Satan's stunninghunk taught me that.
It also means that dropping something, forgetting which pocket the extra mag is in, etc while swapping magazines in a high pressure situation is just as likely. A higher capacity magazine would be a solution, but then it kinda defeats the whole
concealed carry premise.
As for me, I carry as little in my pocket as needed. What I don't hit, my wife will.
