A mid-frame 38 revolver is an excellent choice as a first handgun. Only a .22 revolver might be argued by some as a better choice, but the .38 has much more value for actual self defense.
The OP mentioned that he bought his gun on 'an impulse'. Well, its likely that he'd been thinking about it for awhile. For whatever personal reasons - self protection, recreation, etc - he had a handgun in mind. Good for him that he took action and bought one.
