The gun to own is the gun you are comfortable with. I have both revolvers and autos. I enjoy shooting both.
I have fired thousands of rounds and have never had a revolver misfire. Every auto I have ever owned has misfired.
For home protection I prefer a 357 snub nose with 38+P hollow point ammo. I keep it in a button push pop open safe.
I have large hands and prefer the bigger 357 frame. I use the 38+P ammo which has plenty of stopping power.
One day my gun smith asked me why do you have all these locks on your guns? I said I have 2 children. He replied can you stop their curriosity? I said no. He replied can you teach them? I said yes. He said then teach them.
I owned my first gun when I was 10. When I was 12 I owned a 22 Mag lever action and I also owned the ammunition.
