To answer more seriously, and to Wheel-Gunner's point: I believe the average gunfight last - something like - 1.8 rounds. The chances of needing a semi-auto mag's worth of rounds is exceedingly small.
My work buddy and I have the "fire-power vs. hitting-power" debate on a regular basis. He prefers his 15-round 9mm, and I want my 6-shot .357 smokewagon.
It's unlikely that a defensive situation would result in emptying your weapon - even if it's only a 5-shotter.
