Now you can say this was an off-duty LEO but lets just say instead this is your daughter and her ex-husband....can your snubbie with your level of skill handle this....and the officer involved never carried a snubbie OD again and preached this to others...and he even hit the guy 4 GOOD times out of 5 shots fired.... I personally know two LEOs who got in gunfights with snubbies and neither ever carried one again...learn from the mistakes of others...
Go over to YouTube and LiveLeak and look at the robbery and gunfight videos...and then be honest with yourself...will a snubbie hack it...
I carry a small gun when I CAN'T carry a larger one...not when it is "inconvenient" to carry the large one...

Bad example. He took a snub and his badge and interjected into the issue as was his duty. Me and my wife would exit out the back of the store/warehouse/garden center post haste. A snub would have been perfectly suitable for the example you posted.
As far as fantasy scenarios, for every scenario you can bring up where my snub is not suitable, I can make something up where your hicap is unsutiable and you should have had a rifle or close air support.
Carry what you want but don't preach that because you are doing it some way, your way is better or smarter.
Me? I am very honest with myself.
1. Dont do stupid things in stupid places with stupid people.
2. Nothing good happens past midnight.
3. Situational awareness and exit plans.
4. Snubby lifestlye
