I have 10mm Double Tap 200 gr XTP/JHP's, which are classified as a "hunting round" (1300/700) and I think if you're carrying this (in the woods) you're "OK" for 2 or 4 legged animals....

When I lived in S. Florida, I carried my stainless Colt lightweight Defender .45 acp, and it was quite user friendly....

I practice drawing and firing 2 rounds from my Taurus .454 casull into a target, at 25 feet (accurately) in 2 seconds, so I'm "ready" if I get charged by an animal. Now, I've never been "charged" by any wild animals, (except a porcupine, who I blasted) so though I believe I won't "choke"...

In a gunfight, lighting conditions can change, and night sights fill that possible void in visibility; also for a nightstand pistol, you could be firing at your night intruder "silhouettes", and night sites afford a good aim.

I carry my SW Valor 5" 10mm all day every day (concealed) in a IWB pancake holster, on a 3/16" thick 1 1/2" wide leather belt - comfortable, unseen and ready to go.

I got a Florida CCW in 2004, and most of the "class" failed the simulated (projection) shooting scenario, and missed too many hits on the target - but they still were given a permit....

For most of America, it's not where you live, but where you go. The "ne'er do well's" tend to "go for you" in the parking lot at markets, ATM's, and other "public places"; that's where you need to have your head on a swivel and your pistol on your side.

I've been "disciplined" in (reasonably limiting) my gun purchases by my "I'll only buy a gun if I get it for a steal" code. I do have quite a few, guns because I've managed to get A LOT of "steals", though I certainly would have MORE (guns) without my "code" in force.

Besides my 1911 in the glove box and 12 gauge in my trunk, I also keep a collapsible baton and a USMC Kabar under my seat and a gas mask in my trunk. I like to be prepared to "express myself" when required... My DW Valor 10mm CCW

I keep a stainless Colt Defender .45 acp in my glovebox, and a Mossberg 12 gauge (7 +1) with a "Bird's Head" grip and (attached) 14 round bandolier shoulder strap in my trunk, in a hard case.

ALSO, there are some FFL's (I experienced) which aren't keen on you doing a thorough inspection of the weapon before performing the actual transfer. I suggest you make sure that isn't an issue with the FFL before you use them.

Here's a site where there are excellent (these days) prices on ammo. I live in the area, so it's also convenient (for me), but even with shipping the prices are pretty good. https://trueshotgunclub.com/

I like carrying my Taurus Raging Bull 6.5" .454 Casull when I'm out in "The Country"; you never know what you might find....

Aren't those "140 gr Extreme Penetrators" a tad light for Mountain Lions ?

Well, I guess my 7.62x51 armor piercing-incendiary rounds would DEFINITELY cause a little trouble.....

I bought this "as new" 2017 Dan Wesson, Valor 10mm (locally) for only $1,350 (total) with box, mags, etc.

I've heard negative comments about Pro Mags, but I've found (the excellent) Magpul mags for comparable prices, so why even buy Pro Mags ? I bought 100 - 30 round Magpul Gen 2 for $800 several months ago (that's $8 each) from Mag Commander, and they have low, low prices RIGHT NOW on Magpul...

I found SCORES of ammo available, but I'm not buying any until prices become sane again (I already have a lot anyway).

I have several "pretty guns" which I bought because I got them for a great price/trade. I got them as an investment, they're worth a lot more than I paid for them, and I'll never shoot them.

"There are more trees on Earth than there are stars in the Milky Way" - wrong.
