I read TunnelRat's comment as, "Don't worry about cost when choosing a firearm for SD." I agree.

If your BEST option (the gun you have the most confidence in) costs $300, roll with it; but if your BEST option costs $1,300, don't carry a $300 gun for fear of the monetary loss.

I've always looked at a carry gun similarly to how I look at a helmet; "If I were going to crash today, what would I want to be wearing?" Choose accordingly.
