J-frame: Enough?
Have thought about carrying my Smith & Wesson 642 .38 Special 5-shot snub-nose revolver as my primary carry gun in a pocket holster.
How many of you think that setup would be enough for realistic self defense, or should I get a bigger gun with more capacity or a different caliber?
Thanks!
-Jay
