Nice start - keep going How do you like the Cougar? I was tempted to buy a Beretta Cougar in .45acp, but passed since I have no experience with the gun and would want to shoot one of those rotating lockup pistols before buying one.
I say you should buy whatever you want, and whatever you can afford. As many people and their collections on this board can attest, not every gun is purchased with the intent of using it for personal or home defense. Many are purchased with no intent at all, other then the owner just wanted it. I have a single 1911 in my small collection. While it would make a great SD or HD weapon, it lives in the safe in between range trips. I already had several guns to fill the personal defense role - I only have a 1911 because I wanted one, and if I was to have only one, it was to be a Colt (1991a1 stainless combat commander).
And your security six is one I'm sure you'll keep forever. I have a pair of stainless service sixes (4" and 3"), and I cannot see myself ever parting with either - they are truly that good a wheel gun, IMO.
Happy shooting.
I really feel (as I put on my flame suit) that The Stoeger Couger 9MM is the BEST value today for a compact 9MM semi auto. From day one it has been flawless. (well over 700 rds) It shoots whatever I feed it & has never failed to operate perfectly. It fits me like a glove, has very little recoil, is more accurate than I am, a real joy to shoot & a breeze to take down & clean. I don't think I've ever read a bad review on it. I would put it next to any gun out there at twice the price. If it fits your criteria, check it out.
Oh by the way;
