Yes, I'm very aware. I'm also aware of all the negative opinions about choosing this caliber for self-defense. However like I said I have many reasons for my choice... many.

I will say that it is for canceled carry and I'm a civilian not a police officer. I don't carry a back up or
speed loaders... I'll shoot-shoot and maybe shoot and try to break contact and get away ASAP!
You won't see me going toe to toe like an officer has too. Now for my home... I have a S&W
model 65 loaded with .38 +P's.

Thanks everyone for the input thus far! Bill
