Is there such a thing as a long-range defensive handgun?

Most defensive handguns are intended for close range. And there still isn't one that's best.

Some guns are nice to carry and conceal. Some shoot big bullets. Some shoot fast bullets. Some have high capacity. Some have nice triggers. Some have nice sights. Some have controllable recoil. Some are cheaper to practice with. Some are easier to operate. Some are not picky about ammo. Some guns just feel right or point naturally in a specific person's hand.
