Funny..to all who thinks a BG.380 isn't enough gun for self defense I say this..come over,I'll let you start beating me up,and after two or three rounds of BG.380 thrown at you,I want you to tell me I should've had a 9m..and keep beating me up..The best gun for SD is one you can carry/conceal and shoot,it dont have to be an elephant gun,some suggest at least this calaber or that as a minimum..rediculous.Sure someone "could" keep coming at you after a.380 hit,but I can also link you a video on You tube showing a guy that keeps coming after a couple.40 rounds from a LEO..JMHO..Phil
