Consider this though, what handgun would you want to have if you had to find your way home after another 9-11?

A full-sized gun is a pain as it takes up space and adds weight to my bag and I never carry it at the other end of the trip - but damn it! - I know I'll have a full sized handgun to work with if needed!
I gave it some thought and decided he was right. Instead of one of the snubs, I packed the SIG 225, my regular carry gun, along with four mags and an extra box of Hornady 124-gr JHPs I had lying around the gun room. So there. BTW, Walt's also carrying a SIG 225 to the Sunshine State.
Can someone explain this to me, because I'm confused.

I recently saw the "Snubbies" episode of Shooting Gallery. Supposedly expert after expert recommends a J-frame. Everybody who's anybody carries a J-frame.

J-frame, J-frame, J-frame.

And now this? "Oops, I guess I was wrong".

WTF?
