There's an old sports saying that says, "It isn't the size of the dog in the fight that counts; it's the size of the fight in the dog."

A homicide detective friend of mine once observed that cheap little .25 caliber automatics must be the most dangerous gun in the world, since most of the homicides he investigated involved this kind of gun.

He was joking, of course.

You don't seek the biggest, baddest gun you can find. The odds are you could not fire it accurately. You seek the firearm that has good ballistics, and which you can fire accurately.

As "Dirty Harry" said, "A man's got to know his limitations."


(Yeah, yeah, I know you were joking.)
