Depends on a lot of shit. A handgun is good, because the best gun is the one that's within reach, but for home defense something like a shotgun of some sort or a short rifle would end the threat better

sorry I mean hand gun

are revolvers good

The general answer for that would be that revolvers are less likely to jam, but when they do jam it's way way worse, but that probably won't ever matter at all, and that you're sacrificing way too much magazine capacity with a revolver

Six shots is enough to kill anything that moves... but not if you miss, or get unlucky, or have to deal with more than one thing

That’s similar to asking “Are humans good?”. Some are, some aren’t; it depends on various factors & what you search for in a handgun, @moisterrific.

need something that’s reliable and don’t need too much maintenance and has good stopping power

Ruger sells a Light Compact Revolver chambered in .357 Magnum, which “has good stopping power” & considerable recoil. Plus, the internal hammer means you can carry it in your pocket without the hammer catching on your pants.

You can read reviews about it online, @moisterrific.

wtf

That looks lame

Its aesthetic appeals to me.

>what's the best gun for self defense
>That looks really cool and that I can boast with

🤷

not boast lol

For a revolver I really like it's aesthetics as well

Do not bully, he's a good little gun and he does the best he can

it’s gotta look nice

need that style and function

Eh, if you care about fashion then a gun that you're going to carry is going to be better than one you'll leave at home. Considering there's so many guns that will end up with the same exact end result in 99.9% of cases, I don't think it's that dumb even if it is a bit silly

You follow a budget or no, @moisterrific?

what

How much are you willing to spend for an efficient handgun?

How much do they cost?

$100-$2000+
It depends on several factors, including whether it being used matters to you.

ofc used

gotta practice shooting it sometime

Would you purchase a handgun used by someone else & up for sale?

no

I mean I’m gonna use it lol

That handgun’s appearance appeals to you, or no?

looks like some shit from a video game

It's... Usually the other way around, guns in videogames look like real-life ones

too tacky

would a desert eagle be good

?

those colors don’t go well together

Its appearance appeals to me. ;P
