I like .45 for bringing hitting power for a handgun. There’s just something about a .45 that reaches out and says ‘MERICA!!! For a rifle, any rifle round better than a .22Lr should get people’s attention.

The key is to have one available at the moment of truth. The state of California made it impossible for the poor murdered souls. Whatever you can keep closest to you or on you is best.

I really don't think it possible for me to agree with you more Caipirabob!
