An interesting topic . . . how many rounds is enough?
Personally, I'd rather carry a revolver than a semi-auto - but that's just me. My primary carry is a 5 shot 357 - and I'm comfortable with that.
In regards to high capacity magazines . . . I do carry a Ruger SR9 as well once in a while - however, I'd be satisfied if they just had a 8 round capacity - the 1911 was carried for years in combat and the capacity for that seemed to satisfy the military for generations. My SR9 has a double stack and I believe it will hold 17 (it's been a while since I've fully loaded the magazines as I primarily shoot revolver). If I need that many rounds . . . then it's no longer a case of SD . . . it's an all out gun battle. Just my thoughts though . . . others seem to feel they need that many rounds.
