Pocket guns are up close and personal type defensive weapons.
Not shooting for groups at 1,000 yds. Not even 24 yds.

One thing about that, though...the closer the assailant is, the bigger I want the gun to be. No need to "defend" yourself from a distance of 45 yards, for sure but a hopped up loon can take a few hits without even feeling it. I agree that a .380 IS better than nothing, but I insist that a .40 is better than a .380 in each hand by a longshot.

I Love these debates! 1) If you don't have it when you need it they are all worthless! 2) The flash and bang stops most BG's in their tracks! 3) No one has practiced enough! 4) I NEVER WANT TO SHOOT SOMEONE!!! I hope you never have too either.
Live right. Do right. Demand the same in others. Screw off. Lie and cheat. Have no regard for the actions of others.
You tell me which takes, and ultimately makes, a Man.
