I keep some of each around. You never know when you'll need one or the other.

A shotgun (Rem 870 Mariner) guards my house along with dogs. I carry Glocks (.40), wheelgun snubbys (.38spl), a Makarov (rarely...9mm) or even my big gun... a Para-Ordnance P14-45 with two spare mags for when I feel the need for more serious firepower. The handguns also guard the house as they are salted around in obscure places.

Carry ammo is usually either Cor-Bon, Federal Hydra-shok, Remington Golden Saber or Speer Gold Dot.

Training is ongoing and came before I bought my first gun. I've been lazy recently and haven't shot in about two years but life intrudes. One of these days I'll get back out to a range and burn off a few hundred.

I want to bring in my wife but finding a handgun to fit her small hands, in a light caliber (so as not to aggravate her arthritis and to avoid "flinching") that can also serve in a defense situation is proving difficult.
