[QUOTE="Thegungal, post: 5519787, member: 63779"] A pistol is most often not the right choice for anything. A pistol is a "because" weapon in most cases. (Because I have to be able to hide it, because I have nothing else, because it is my backup, because that is all I am allowed to carry, because it signifies rank or duty...and so on) A pistol requires a fair amount of training and is not an easy weapon to become good with. Even though people argue all day about "Which pistol is more powerful or ...whatever, they are not very effective weapons and dont have a great track record. People say "how can you say that"...well, If you have to shoot someone, it is serious...you need them to stop whatever they are doing RIGHT NOW. A pistol will do that but not as well as a Rifle or a shotgun in most cases...and it is harder to use a pistol in the first place to get it done. We dropped loads of little cheap pistols all over France durring WWII....They were to take them...shoot a Nazi that had a rifle...and then they would be armed when they have the rifle. As the old saying goes, (in its many variations) It you have nothing but a pistol, it will be best used to fight your way to a rifle (or shotgun) And one of the most important rules of a gun fight...shoot the guy with the shotgun first. At close range AMA statistics back it up (and I wish I could find a link) nothing is as lethal as a shotgun. [/QUOTE]
