"Beware the man with only 1 gun! He probably knows how to use it well!"

Everybody today think a self defense pistol should be a hi-cap auto because they will be going up against a half-dozen highly trained ninja-zombies.

Most street punks can't shoot worth a darn , especially holding the pistol sideways.

I know one old timer who ownes only 2 pistols , a Colt SAA in 38/40 and a WWII 9mm Luger. And he can shoot both very well.

I certainly wouldn't feel doomed if all I had were a single-action revolver. Preferably my 4 5/8"bbl .41 mag New Model Blackhawk.
