I'm considering a S&W 627 8 shot .357 Magnum for an "all around" handgun. It's big but could be concealed if needed. It's big enough for home defense too.

But I'm concerned that 8 rounds isn't enough when there are 15 shot .45 semi autos and such around.

Criminals are known to attack in groups of 5 and sometimes more in my area, both in the home and outside.

Thoughts?
