I need some verificiation here on if I am loosing my mind.. please be nice as I dont know myself. I only know im confused on these gun questions/topics.
First of all, lots of writers will tell you that a 4 inch barrelled revolver cannot be concealed carry, many others will tell you that it can be carreid concealed but lots of restrictions apply.
But if that 4 inch barrelled revolver is sooooo difficult to conceal, then why do these same people tell us that a 4-5.5 inch barreled semi auto with 17 round magazine is SOOOO EASY to conceal?
And caliber, even on here people agree that the "lesser" calibers of 38 s&w, 32 h&R magnum, 32 acp, 380, and even 38 specials can kill you just as well as a 357, 44 special, 44 mag,and even as well as a .41 magnum if you use the right ammunition.
In that case why do I have to read so many "this caliber {insert favorite caliber here} is soooo much more powerful then the rest" articles and gun reviews? Why cant they just say, "just as good at killing as a 32 magnum, but makes a bigger hole"?
And the modern world of handguns is just amazing. Massive magazines, no issue here, but size and weight is getting out of hand. Sure a 357 that weighs 17 ounces can be used by stronger people, but something i have to ask...
Is there a reason for a snubnosed revolver in .500 S&W that weighs 68 oz or a snubnose that 454 casull that weighs 48 ounces? With those weights why not get a full size glock and carry around 3 extra mags for the same weight?
