I am considering a new gun and am debating between a seecamp or maybe a small revolver. I have a few questions.
First, which would be the smallest defensive caliber I should go with? at first becuase of the revolver I thought about a 357 but after reading here, it seems that it would be too much for what I need. I do plan to do a little range shooting every now and then. As I read more and mroe, its seems 38 special is the caliber of choice.
Second, which gun? I would like to carry it so size and weight are very important. I want a small light easy to conceal. I looked at Taurus ultra-light, S&W airwiehgts, and charter arms. Are any of these guns solid enough or is there a brand I should steer clear of. Are there any brands other than these, that I am not aware of that would met my requirements.,
Third, the hammer issue. I like the look of a hammer. However if it is a real liability of getting it hung up, then I would go hammerless. But I have no experience so is the hang up a real possibility??
Lastly, I am looking to spend under $400 for this. Not looking for anything crazy just an introduction to revolvers that I can carry if I choose to.
Thanks.
