I don't disagree on that point, and as a result, most of the time I am carrying a 5 shot revolver.
But there are times when maybe I am going to a rougher part of town where I feel the danger might be higher(although still statistically remote) and I will pack a higher capacity gun... or if I am going to be away from the house for a longer period of time.
But for the most part, I carry a 5 shot stubby about 75% of the time and I don't feel like I am unprepared for the average SD situation...
There’s a lady in Loganville that put all five rounds of her snub nosed .38 into the head and neck of a home intruder. He finally asked her to stop shooting and turned and left. I’m guessing the loud ringing in his ears from the gunfire prevented him from hearing the click click click of the empty chambers as she kept squeezing.
A) He is still alive and well
B) Thank God there was only one bad guy
C) I can only assume she upgraded her gun and ammo.
