Yes, I have a CA Bulldog and a Taurus 431 that work fine and are less valuable, but, if I really need a gun, I want the best one, not a pretty good one.
Yes, Ssteelslaver, I agree completely... For goodness sake, although we all like to shoot and collect, we want the very best gun that we own for self defense. Let's say you paid a thousand dollars for it. Or two thousand. And it saved your life. Even if you ultimately lost the gun, or it gets tied up in court as a piece of evidence. So what? Wasn't it worth it? What price do you want to put on your life? Same thing for self defense ammunition. I'm carrying in my 357 EDC, Speer 135 gr Gold Dot short barrel .357 mag ammo, that rums over a dollar up to a dollar and a half per round. Hard to find also,even at that price. But I trust it, and so what if it were two dollars a round; your life may just very well depend on it.

Best Regards, Les
