If I had the option to legally carry a revolver in my ride I would probably go with the S&W 640 cuz u can also put it in your pocket when needed(no snag). Obv u dont want to put this in the glove compartment with your registration -u need to be more creative.

With a couple of speed loaders u are set.

Respectively disagee. Novices need to get used to handguns. It is nothing like you see on T.V. A .357 magnum is like having a stick of dynamite go off in your hand. My first time I wanted to put the gun down and walk away. Working up to a higher caliber is a nice way to go.

What state do you live in, we can totally do this in Fla. But my .357 is too big for my glovebox, I mean to pick up a 9 for this purpose.

You can carry an unloaded fiream in your trunk to and fro the range or in a locked container out of the trunk

Do they have a concealed carry permit program?

A rifle bullet will pentrate walls (plural) and could potentially hit your neighbor. Depending on the state you live in, you would be liable for any injuries that occurred.

Okay okay, no winchester (.44-40), damn!

It's narrowed down to either a shotgun or a .357
Nobody has really mentioned any cons in regards this type of shotgun below (What is this type called?)



The .357 S&W's have a variety of barrel lengths. I guess I'd get the shorter barrel just because they're lighter.

Remington 870 (very common) with a pistol grip. Pros could be that there's quite a bit of energy behind the muzzle so you should stop whatever you hit, less wall penetration than a pistol (but there is penetetration; see the link I posted), larger impact area so that you're a bit more likely to hit what you aim at. Cons could be that it's more bulky than a pistol, so if your house is really cramped, manuevering it effectively might be challenging. You'll also have fewer shots than you would with a pistol. And the recoil will obviously be stronger with a shotgun than with a pistol and without a stock on it (assuming you want it with pistol grip only) that might be a little rougher on your arms. But you'd probably have to see, because I've never fired a shotgun without a stock.

i just bought a 5-7 a couple months ago... it isn't for home defense, necessarily, but I would use it for that if the need arose.

If I was buying a weapon just for the purpose of defending my home from criminals and zombies, it would be a 12-gauge pump shotgun

Zombies only die by shotgun.
